Rated 92 on 2018

For many years, the Romeo y Julieta Churchill was a classic in the Cuban portfolio. It’s still one of the quintessential Cuban cigars, but worldwide distributor and marketing monopoly Habanos S. A. decided it was time to create some offshoots of this well-known standard. Today, Romeo has a regular Churchill,...

Rated 94 on 2017

A sublime and complex composition of ripe apple and toasty qualities that develop oaky, red wine notes, rich leather and a sweet toffee finish.

 

Rated 88 on 2016

This robusto has an even burn and a firm draw. The smoke is predominantly creamy and tangy, with touches of fruit and wood alongside hints of caramel and tea.

Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills FAQ's

In Cuba, Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills are generally priced lower than in international markets. Cuban cigars typically range from $8 to $90 USD per cigar, depending on the brand, vitola, and availability. Prestigious names such as Cohiba, Montecristo, and Partagás sit at the higher end. There is no real price advantage to purchasing full boxes, as the per-cigar cost remains the same unless you intend to leave the country with more than 50 cigars, in which case proper documentation is required to avoid confiscation by Cuban authorities.

For online buyers, packaging plays a key role. Boxed Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills cigars require official documentation and customs review before leaving the country, increasing shipping complexity and cost. That is why Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills cigars purchased online often cost more than in Cuba, largely due to the required paperwork for shipping. Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills cigars can also be shipped without boxes while maintaining the same quality, and are backed by a 100% money-back guarantee on delivery, offering a more refined and cost-conscious approach.

Advice: Always request a receipt when purchasing cigars in Cuba “no exceptions”. Without proper documentation, cigars especially boxes will be confiscated by Cuban authorities during inspection on your return flight home.

The most seamless approach is to purchase Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills directly through us online or at our retail shop in Havana, Cuba. Even if your Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills cigars were not sourced through us, our team can assist in arranging everything for you while you are in Cuba, ensuring a smooth and discreet experience.

When departing Cuba, airport customs generally allow one box and one bundle without a receipt. While some suggest higher quantities may pass without documentation, a more measured approach is always preferred. Maintaining your receipt is strongly recommended.

For those seeking a more effortless experience, shipping Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills is often the preferred option—particularly when traveling with larger quantities or without full documentation.

Short answer: No. (Consider purchasing online instead.)
Long answer: Yes… if you understand how the conversation is meant to unfold.

Traveling? Tips for returning to the United States with Cuban cigars.

When arriving in the U.S., the question is rarely just about cigars it’s about how you answer. If asked whether you have anything to declare, the reply is simple and measured “No”, especially when the total value stays within that familiar $800 threshold, a number that, like most things, can change over time. 95% of the time you will have no issues.

If the conversation becomes more direct, the details matter. If you are arriving from Cuba, the answer should still be “No”, because any cigars or liquor will be taken away if you say Yes. If you say No and they inspect your bags, worst case they’ll confiscate your cigars and liquor, and give you a verbal warning. Do not attempt to negotiate or explain, just say “I didn’t know” nothing more. The goal at this point is to leave with a verbal warning.

Saying “Yes” will ALWAYS result in losing your cigars and liquor.

If you are arriving from Spain or anywhere outside of Cuba, then you can answer “Yes” and simply say you have cigars or liquor from Spain or wherever your journey last took you. Do not say Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills, just keep it simple and say cigars.

Avoid all of this and buy from us, or have us ship it to you if you already sourced your cigars in Cuba.

It’s not about avoiding the truth it’s about understanding how it’s told. Like a good cigar, timing and delivery are everything. The goal is to arrive home and enjoy your Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills.

Smoothly, without sharp turns. The opening delivers soft cedar and cream, with a subtle floral note that lifts the palate. In the middle third, toasted nuts and light cocoa appear, adding warmth and depth. The final third introduces a gentle spice and leather note, finishing clean and satisfying. Every stage feels connected nothing rushed, nothing forced.

The Short Churchills is a cigar that rewards patience and attention to detail. Start by lighting it slowly and evenly, allowing the wrapper to toast rather than rush the flame. Take steady, measured draws, savoring the slow evolution of flavors. This is a cigar meant to be enjoyed at a leisurely pace. Don’t rush let the complexity reveal itself bit by bit, from the creamy opening to the rich, slightly spicy finish. A Note From JuanA cigar like the Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills is all about balance and tradition. It’s a piece of Cuban craftsmanship, ready to give you a rewarding, approachable smoke. And when you choose a cigar this dependable, you want to be sure it arrives in pristine condition with authenticity, careful handling, and timely delivery. That’s why we ensure every detail is taken care of so that what reaches you is exactly what you expect: excellence. Delivered effortlessly, just as it should be.

The Short Churchills opens with a gentle creaminess, like the soft touch of a fine leather chair. You’ll find initial notes of cedar and light spice pepper and a hint of cinnamon unfolding into a fuller body as it develops. As you move into the second third, subtle undertones of toasted nuts, honey, and coffee appear. The finish is long and satisfying with a slight earthiness, making it smooth but never one-dimensional. It’s a balance of strength and refinement that makes this cigar approachable yet complex.

That’s the beauty of it it’s for both. Newer smokers will find it forgiving and welcoming, while experienced aficionados appreciate its balance and reliability. It’s the kind of cigar you can smoke early in the day or in the evening, alone or in company. Always appropriate, always enjoyable.

To complement the Short Churchills, you’ll want a drink that enhances the cigar’s rich, creamy body without overwhelming it. A well‑aged rum with notes of caramel, oak, and molasses is a natural match. For whisky drinkers, a smooth, medium‑bodied Scotch with hints of honey and light smoke would be a great pairing. If you prefer coffee, a dark roast with a hint of chocolate and nutty undertones will bring out the best in this cigar. In all cases, let the drink be a harmonious partner to the depth of the cigar.

The Short Churchills offers a perfect balance of power and elegance, all packed into a shorter, more approachable format compared to its namesake. It’s a cigar for those who appreciate the legacy of Romeo y Julieta but want something with a little more punch without committing to a larger smoke. The blend, drawn from the famous Vuelta Abajo region, is known for its complexity: rich, flavorful, and smooth, yet with enough strength to satisfy the experienced smoker. It’s a classic cigar that doesn’t take long to remind you why it’s considered a top-tier Cuban.

The Short Churchills capture the soul of Romeo y Julieta in a compact, perfectly proportioned format. It’s medium-bodied, approachable, and beautifully balanced, offering cedar, creamy tobacco, light leather, and a gentle sweetness that feels refined rather than showy. It’s a cigar that doesn’t try to impress it simply does, through consistency and quiet confidence.

This is a cigar that pairs well with those “in-between” moments: a long lunch, a quiet evening on the balcony, or a late afternoon spent with friends or good conversation. The Short Churchills is robust enough to accompany a celebratory toast, but it’s also subtle enough to enjoy on a leisurely afternoon. It’s a perfect cigar when you don’t want to rush, but also don’t want a lengthy smoke session.

A lightly aged rum, a smooth whisky, or even a cappuccino pairs beautifully. I often enjoy it with a 10–12-year-old rum the natural sweetness complements the cigar’s creamy profile without overpowering it. This is a cigar that prefers harmony over intensity.

Because it never lets you down. It offers classic Cuban flavor, excellent construction, and perfect balance in a size that fits almost any moment. It’s a cigar you reach for when you want certainty when you want to relax, not think, and simply enjoy the smoke. Juan’s Closing Reflection:The Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills is a cigar you can trust. From the moment it leaves Havana to the moment you light it, every detail is handled with care so it arrives fresh, perfectly humidified, and ready to be enjoyed whether at home or at the office. We make the process effortless, so all that’s left is the pleasure: the aroma, the first draw, and that familiar feeling of Cuban tradition done right. Some cigars surprise you. This one welcomes you back.

Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills

Visually striking as ever, this Short Churchills wears its smooth colorado cape with a subtle sheen, a testament to the masterful craftsmanship behind it. The cold draw hints at cedar, faint dust, and whispers of supple leather, inviting the smoker into a world both familiar and rich.

After lighting:

The smoke opens broad and direct dry yet fragrant, with a gentle peppery kick that lingers on the tongue. The flavor unfolds gracefully into a wooded tapestry, framed by a fresh, nutty undertone that recalls the crispness of raw walnuts. This opening third balances roundness with a persistent, delicate spice.

The middle third deepens, revealing a richer complexity. Wood remains the foundation, now enriched by subtle animalic notes and a delicate touch of green coffee. The power is steady, never overwhelming an elegant second act that feels thoroughly composed.

In the final third, intensity rises with a warm, toasty character, though a slight youthful sharpness peeks through, adding intrigue without overshadowing the cigar’s balance. The evolution is measured, the construction impeccable a fitting crescendo.

Reflection: The Short Churchills remains a steadfast companion dependable, richly flavored, and perfectly sized for moments when tradition and comfort are paramount. It wears its fifth band proudly, a quiet celebration of consistency and craft.

This is the second time that Romeo y Julieta's robusto has shown up in our Top 25, following its debut in Cuba's annual cigar festival in March 2006. We said then that the Short Churchill was "destined to be another classic," and we were right. It's one of those "go to" Cuban cigars that never disappoint, and it's incredibly popular...

A subtly pressed robusto with a gleaming wrapper. The draw is a bit firm, but manages to impart a complex, full-bodied flavor profile of leather, cocoa bean and wood punctuated by an orange peel note and a long, tobacco finish.  

Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills Review: Rated 92 on 2007

Cuba's newest robusto debuted during the island's annual cigar festival in March 2006 and the delicious cigar became one of the most sought-after in 2006. But production at the H. Upmann factory in Havana was always sporadic, so many markets did not receive the cigars, which were sold in both tubes and boxes. For example, at one time the Cubans...
