Romeo y Julieta No. 2 Tubos

The No. 2 Tubos is Romeo y Julieta's Marevas — the brand's classic petit corona — sealed inside an aluminum tube. The tube isn't just for protection: it keeps the cigar at peak condition and, lined with cedar, adds a subtle aromatic sweetness over time.

What it tastes like

This is a medium-bodied Havana with the easygoing Romeo y Julieta signature: smooth cedar, roasted nuts, and a light coffee-and-honey sweetness, with just a whisper of spice. At 42 ring gauge it's a slimmer, more elegant smoke than the robustos, and the tube's cedar lining nudges the flavor a touch sweeter and woodier. It's handmade with Vuelta Abajo tobacco and burns about 30 to 40 minutes.

Who it's for

The tube makes this an ideal carry cigar — toss it in a jacket pocket and it travels safely without a case. It's approachable enough for newer smokers and a dependable everyday Cuban for everyone else. If you prefer the untubed, box-pressed version of the same blend, try the Romeo y Julieta Petit Coronas.

Because tubed cigars travel so well, they're easy to forget about — keep a list of what's in your pockets and your humidor with the Casa DNC app.
