Famous Smoke Shop Celebrates 75 Years With Two Exclusive Romeo y Julietas
The anniversary celebrations for Famous Smoke Shop have found a Romeo y Julieta or two.
The Easton, Pa.-based retailer has announced that it has two new exclusive cigars for its 75th anniversary, both under the Romeo y Julieta name and both extensions of private label names the company has already released. The Romeo y Julieta Capulet 75th Anniversary is a 6 1/2 x 54 cigar featuring an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, Nicaraguan binder and fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua.
As for the Romeo y Julieta Montague 75th Anniversary, it’s also a 6 1/2 x 54 cigar, but it uses a Brazilian maduro wrapper, Dominican olor binder and Brazilian, Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers.
The cigars retail for $106 and $109 per box of 20.
Famous describes the cigars as limited in production, but has indicated it expects them to be an ongoing release.
Last year the retailer released a special edition Padrón to mark its anniversary.
