Explore Romeo y Julieta
Every Romeo y Julieta de Luxe (EL 2013) is guaranteed 100% authentic, sourced directly from Habanos S.A. with the official seal and full traceability from Vuelta Abajo to your door.
Few names carry the romantic weight that Romeo y Julieta does, and the de Luxe stands as one of the brand’s most graceful expressions. Released as part of the Habanos Edicion Limitada programme in 2013, this cigar arrived rolled in the Capuleto vitola, a generous Double Robusto measuring 162mm by a 52 ring gauge. Limited Editions are built around darker, more matured wrapper leaves that have been rested for at least two years before rolling, and the de Luxe carries that signature poise. It is a release that rewards patience and a quiet hour rather than a rushed smoke.
The first third opens with that mouthwatering cedar so characteristic of the marca, layered over gentle coffee and a whisper of sweet leather, with almost no pepper to speak of. Through the middle the smoke settles into a creamy cedar core, where graham cracker sweetness and a soft walnut note keep the palate engaged. As it moves into the final third, sharper woody tones step forward alongside touches of grass, lingering coffee, and a tangy lift of citrus zest that brightens the long, silky finish.
Because this is an Edicion Limitada built on matured leaf, the de Luxe already drinks beautifully, yet it has the structure to improve further with time. Keep your cigars resting between 65 and 70 percent relative humidity, at a steady temperature near 18 degrees Celsius, inside a well seasoned humidor. Given a few more years of patient cellaring, the cedar tends to soften and the sweeter, floral undertones grow more pronounced, making this a worthwhile box to set aside.
This is a cigar for the smoker who values finesse over force. Newer enthusiasts will appreciate its approachable, mild to medium body and its forgiving, even draw, while seasoned aficionados will recognise the refinement that comes from quality aged tobacco and a limited release pedigree. If you collect Romeo y Julieta or simply enjoy a smooth, contemplative smoke, the de Luxe earns its place in the humidor.
Is the Romeo y Julieta de Luxe a strong cigar?
No. It sits in the mild to medium range, leading with smooth cedar, coffee, and soft leather rather than heavy pepper or intensity, which makes it accessible to most palates.
What size is the de Luxe (EL 2013)?
It is a Double Robusto in the Capuleto vitola, measuring roughly 6.4 inches in length with a 52 ring gauge.
Why is it called an Edicion Limitada?
It was part of the Habanos Limited Edition series for 2013, meaning it was produced in restricted quantities using specially matured tobacco leaves aged for at least two years before rolling.

The Romeo y Julieta de Luxe (EL 2013) is a respectable cigar. Nice notes of honey and nuts, decent construction. However, I found it a bit one-dimensional compared to other Romeo y Julieta offerings. Not bad, but there are better options in this price range.
