Rows in grey were last read more than 60 days ago: they are history, not quotes, and never count as the cheapest. Listed price for the box of 25 in the retailer's own currency, their own tax included. A box crossing a border picks up destination duty and VAT on top — the "duty paid EU" mark shows the few retailers whose price is all-in beyond their home market.

The piece

The cigar Winston Churchill made famous. A 7-inch Julieta No. 2 delivering Romeo's creamy floral profile in a 90-minute Churchill format.

If one Cuban brand owes its identity to a single famous smoker, it's Romeo y Julieta and Winston Churchill. The British prime minister reportedly smoked Romeo cigars daily for decades — typically the Churchill format that Habanos eventually named after him — and the association is what built the brand's global reputation. The Romeo y Julieta Churchill is a 7-inch Julieta No. 2 (a slightly thinner Churchill than the Cohiba Espléndidos at 47 ring instead of 47), continuously produced in the same blend since the 1950s.

The smoke is the gentlest of the major Cuban Churchills. First third opens with butter, hay and a faint floral note — Romeo's signature opening; the middle drifts into cedar, honey and a touch of toasted bread; the last third delivers a creamy, slightly sweet finish that holds for the full 80 to 100 minutes without burning hot. Across Europe a box of 25 sits in the €495 to €620 range: Noblego runs around €520, Cigarworld €535, Cigarmust CHF 580 (~€610 after FX), LCDH Brussels €545. The €115 absolute spread is one of the wider gaps in the Romeo y Julieta catalogue — and the Churchill is the SKU most often gifted, which means restocks happen in cycles around Father's Day, Christmas and graduation season.

Questions

  • Where is the cheapest place to buy Romeo y Julieta Churchill in Europe right now?

    We are tracking 6 European retailers that list Romeo y Julieta Churchill. Stock is moving — refresh this page or save it to your watchlist to be alerted when any retailer restocks at a competitive price.

  • Will the listed price include duty + VAT for my country?

    Only if you live where the retailer is. Every price on this page is all-in (excise duty + VAT included) in the retailer's home country and nowhere else. Buy from a German retailer to a German address and what you see is what you pay. Buy across a border — a Swiss retailer shipping into the EU, or any EU retailer shipping to the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Finland or Ireland — and the destination country charges its own tobacco excise and VAT on arrival. How much depends on the destination's excise rate; our import-duty guide walks through the main markets.

    The few retailers whose price is all-in beyond their home market carry a "duty paid EU" mark in the table.

  • How does Romeo y Julieta Churchill compare to other Romeo y Julieta cigars?

    Romeo y Julieta Churchill is a Julieta No. 2, ring 47, 178 mm, medium strength, sold in a box of 25. The other Romeo y Julieta vitolas on the board, each with its own price page, are Romeo y Julieta Petit Coronas, Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchills, Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills, Romeo y Julieta No. 1 Tubos. Per-cigar price is the fair way to compare them: box sizes differ.

  • Is the price for Romeo y Julieta Churchill likely to drop?

    Habanos S.A. (the Cuban state tobacco monopoly) sets the worldwide release-price floor for every Habano in this catalogue. That floor went up roughly 40% during the 2022–2024 global price harmonisation, and Habanos has signalled further annual increases through 2027. So the long-term trend is up, not down.

    Short-term, prices move at the retailer level — promotions, clearance, a restock at a different price. Where we have a history, the 90-day line on this page shows what the cheapest box in Europe has actually done. A price alert with no target emails you on any drop; setting a target limits it to your budget.
