The Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos is one of the most recognisable and consistently popular Cuban cigars available to smokers in the United Kingdom. This convenient pack of 3 offers three individually protected cigars, each presented in its own cedar-lined aluminium tube. For many enthusiasts the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos represents the perfect everyday smoke: approachable yet complex, portable, and ready to enjoy without the need for a full humidor.
Romeo y Julieta takes its name from William Shakespeare’s tragic lovers and was first registered as a Havana brand in 1875. Under the direction of Don “Pepín” Rodríguez, the marque quickly gained a reputation for quality and for the elaborate cigar bands that became a hallmark of the brand. By the early twentieth century Romeo y Julieta was already one of the most widely distributed Cuban cigars in the world.
The brand’s prestige was further elevated when Sir Winston Churchill became a devoted smoker after his visit to Havana in 1946. Although the famous Churchill vitola carries his name, it is the smaller Romeo y Julieta No 2 that has remained one of the best-selling sizes in the entire portfolio for decades. Today the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos continues to be regarded as a classic medium-bodied Habano that appeals equally to experienced aficionados and those newer to Cuban cigars.
The Romeo y Julieta No 2 is a Petit Corona, also known by the factory name Mareva. Each cigar measures 5⅛ inches (129 mm) in length with a ring gauge of 42. Unlike the box-pressed Petit Corona from the same brand, the No 2 is round in shape, giving it a slightly different appearance and a subtle variation in flavour caused by the cedar lining of the tube.
Every cigar is handmade using the traditional “tripa larga, totalmente a mano” method – long filler, totally handmade. Only selected leaves from the legendary Vuelta Abajo region of Cuba are used for the filler, binder and wrapper. This careful selection produces a consistent medium-strength smoke that typically lasts between 30 and 40 minutes, depending on the smoker’s pace.
The aluminium tube that gives the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos its name is more than simple packaging. The interior is lined with cedar, which helps regulate humidity and protects the cigar during transport and short-term storage. Many smokers keep a few tubes in a desk drawer, car glove box or travel bag, knowing the cigar will remain in good condition for weeks or even months without a full humidor.
The flavour journey of the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos is widely praised for its balance and refinement. On the light, the first impressions are typically cedar and leather, followed quickly by notes of toasted nuts, light coffee and a gentle earthiness. As the cigar develops, subtle floral and herbal tones appear, sometimes accompanied by hints of light fruit or a soft sweetness that never becomes cloying.
The strength remains medium throughout, making the Romeo y Julieta No 2 suitable for almost any time of day. It is neither too mild to be interesting nor too full-bodied to be enjoyed after a meal or with a morning coffee. The draw is usually easy and consistent, and the burn line tends to stay even when the cigar is smoked at a relaxed pace.
Many UK smokers describe the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos as the ideal “daily driver” – a cigar they can turn to regularly without the ceremony required by larger or stronger vitolas. The aluminium tube also means it is ready to smoke the moment the tube is opened, which is a significant advantage for those who do not maintain a large collection.
Buying the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos in a pack of 3 offers several practical benefits. First, it allows the smoker to enjoy three separate smoking sessions without committing to a full box of 25. Second, the individual tubes keep each cigar in optimal condition until it is needed. Third, the compact pack is easy to store and ideal for gifting.
Compared with purchasing three single cigars, the pack of 3 is usually more economical and arrives in a neat presentation that many people prefer. For those who already own a box of the non-tubed version, the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos provides a convenient travel or work option that does not require additional humidification equipment.
Each of the three cigars in this Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos pack is sealed inside its own aluminium tube. The cedar lining inside the tube is the same material traditionally used in humidors, and it gently imparts a light cedar note while protecting the tobacco. Once the tube is opened the cigar can be smoked immediately or returned to a humidor if preferred.
Because the cigars are individually protected, the pack of 3 is particularly well suited to UK buyers who may order online and store the product for a period before smoking. Discreet packaging further ensures that the delivery arrives without drawing unnecessary attention – an important consideration for many tobacco purchasers.
Within the Romeo y Julieta range the No 2 sits between the longer No 1 and the shorter No 3. It offers a slightly heavier ring gauge than the classic Petit Corona while remaining compact enough for a 30–40 minute smoke. Many smokers find it more satisfying than the thinner No 3 yet more manageable than the larger Churchill or Wide Churchill formats.
The tube version adds an extra layer of convenience that the non-tubed Petit Corona does not possess. This combination of classic size and practical packaging is the main reason the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos continues to rank among the most frequently purchased Cuban cigars in the UK.
Because of its medium strength and moderate smoking time, the Romeo y Julieta No 2 Tubos suits a wide range of occasions. It works well as a mid-morning or mid-afternoon cigar, as a companion to a cup of coffee, or as a relaxed evening smoke after dinner. The aluminium tube also makes it an excellent choice for travel, outdoor events, or any situation where a full humidor is impractical.
Many UK customers keep a pack of 3 on hand specifically for guests or for days when they want a reliable, no-fuss Cuban experience. The consistent quality of the Romeo y Julieta blend means the smoker can expect the same balanced flavour profile every time the tube is opened.
