About the Romeo y Julieta Cedro De Luxe No.3
Romeo y Julieta has carried its name since 1875, when the brand emerged from Havana to become one of the most recognized houses in the Cuban canon. The Cedro De Luxe No.3 distills that legacy into a Petit Corona, the vitola known in the factory as Marevas, measuring 129mm with a 42 ring gauge. What sets this cigar apart is presentation: each stick arrives sheathed in a thin cedar sleeve, a touch that perfumes the smoke and signals the care behind the line. It is a format built for those who want the Romeo y Julieta character in a tidy, approachable size.
Flavor profile by thirds
The opening leans gentle and inviting, with cedar and a soft sweetness setting the tone alongside a whisper of white pepper. Through the middle third the smoke settles into its stride, layering creamy cocoa and a mellow coffee note over a backbone of light leather. As it moves toward the band the body firms up modestly, holding to a comfortable medium while the cedar and pepper carry through to a clean, unhurried finish. Construction stays even, the draw obliging, and the profile never tips into anything heavy.
Pairings
- A glass of aged Cuban rum, whose caramel and oak echo the cigar’s cedar and cocoa.
- An espresso or cortado, sharpening the coffee notes that run through the second third.
- A lightly peated or unpeated single malt for those who prefer a measured spirit alongside a milder smoke.
Aging and storage
This is a cigar that rewards patience. Kept at a steady 65 to 70 percent relative humidity around 18 degrees Celsius, the Cedro De Luxe No.3 rounds out over a year or two as the cedar mellows and the sweetness deepens. The cedar sleeve helps preserve aroma, though long-term keepers may prefer to store the cigars in a seasoned humidor for consistent conditions. Avoid temperature swings, and let boxes rest after shipping before lighting up.
Who it is for
The No.3 suits the smoker who values nuance and a manageable smoking time over sheer power. Newcomers to Cuban tobacco find it forgiving and easy to read, while seasoned aficionados reach for it as a reliable morning or midday companion. If you want a Romeo y Julieta that delivers polish, balance, and that signature cedar character without demanding a long sitting, this is the one.

Decent cigar but not my favorite from Romeo y Julieta. The Romeo y Julieta Cedro De Luxe No.3 has good flavor – citrus and pepper – but didn’t wow me like other Cubans I’ve had. Construction was fine, burn was mostly even. It’s good, just not exceptional. Worth trying though.
