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

Winston Churchill's reported daily smoke. A creamy, accessible petit corona that's a working-aficionado favorite.

The Romeo y Julieta Petit Coronas is the working aficionado's daily Cuban. A 5.1-inch Mareva — same dimensions as a Montecristo No. 4 but with the Romeo y Julieta factory's lighter, floral blend — it's the cigar most regularly recommended as a first Cuban beyond the entry-level Quintero and Jose L. Piedra range. Romeo y Julieta is also the brand most strongly associated with Winston Churchill, who reportedly smoked Petit Coronas (or the larger Churchill format named after him) daily for half a century.

The smoke is creamy, buttery, and floral. First third opens with hay and a hint of honey; the middle settles into butter, cedar, and a subtle floral note that's the brand's calling card; the last third stays smooth without ever turning harsh. Smoking time runs 40 to 50 minutes. Across Europe the Petit Coronas is one of the most price-competitive boxes in the Cuban catalogue: £215 at UK retailers, €238 at Germany's Noblego, €245 at LCDH Brussels, CHF 285 at Cigarmust. The £20-30 absolute spread is small but on a daily-smoker SKU it adds up across a year of box purchases.

Questions

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

    Prices and stock move. Save a price alert and we email you when any retailer drops below your target or the box comes back in stock.

  • 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 Petit Coronas compare to other Romeo y Julieta cigars?

    Romeo y Julieta Petit Coronas is a Mareva, ring 42, 129 mm, mild 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 Wide Churchills, Romeo y Julieta Short Churchills, Romeo y Julieta Churchill, 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 Petit Coronas 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.
