About Romeo y Julieta
Romeo y Julieta was created as a Habanos brand in Cuba in 1875, taking its name from the Shakespeare tragedy, and Habanos S.A. still sells the Cuban-made version everywhere in the world except the United States. A separate Dominican-made "Romeo y Julieta" is sold in the United States by Altadis U.S.A., part of Tabacalera USA; the two products have had no common ownership since the US trade embargo split the market in 1962.
