Romeo y Julieta proudly launches the 150th Anniversary Collection at the 2025 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show in New Orleans this April—the premier event for premium cigar retailers. This iconic milestone is honored with a fully bespoke 150th Anniversary Humidor featuring an exclusive vitola created for the occasion.
“In 19th-century Cuba, the brand’s founders read Romeo and Juliet aloud to factory workers, drawing inspiration from its timeless romance to name the brand,” said Olivia Saad, Senior Brand Manager for Romeo y Julieta. “These cigars were quite literally Crafted by Love, a tradition that continues to shape everything we do today. This dedication is reflected in the meticulously designed 150th Anniversary Humidor and brought to life in an immersive exhibit at PCA, where we are reaching new levels in storytelling, craftsmanship, and brand experience.”
“This anniversary demands a cigar as exceptional as our legacy,” said Rafael Nodal, VP of Product Capability at Tabacalera U.S.A. “That’s why we introduced new rolling methods at Tabacalera de Garcia. For the first time, a specially trained team of master rollers employed innovative techniques, ensuring each cigar reflects 150 years of legacy.”
