They are distinguished by their specially selected leaves - wrapper, filler and binder -, aged for not less than two years.

The term "Habanos" has been used since the late nineteenth century to identify the finest cigars in the world, although Cuban tobacco was already considered to be the best in the world back in the eighteenth century. Habanos is an internationally recognised Protected Appellation of Origin (P.A.O.), reserved for identifying cigars over 3 grams, traditionally designated under said denomination, made Totalmente a Mano -Totally By Hand - in Cuba according to the quality standards established by the Cuban tobacco industry, under the supervision of the Habanos P.A.O. Regulatory Council.

Romeo y Julieta was created as a Habanos brand in 1875, with its origin in the tragic play of William Shakespeare. Today, Romeo y Julieta enjoys great prestige and offers the widest range of vitolas in the Habanos brand, all produced Totalmente a Mano con Tripa Larga- Totally by Hand with Long Filler. Since its birth in 1875, Romeo y Julieta has become one of the best known of the Habanos cigars, especially valued by those who appreciate a harmonious blend with an excellent aroma.
