Cigar Weekly

For over 130 years, cigar smokers have enjoyed a passionate love affair with Romeo y Julieta cigars. Now, Romeo y Julieta introduces the ultimate collection for cigar and art lovers alike - the Romeo y Julieta Museum Edition. Only 2000 special humidor boxes have been made for this exclusive, limited edition. Each custom, handmade box includes 36 cigars and a signed, numbered, 3-D painting by the famed artist Charles Fazzino.

The Romeo y Julieta Museum Edition cigars are made at the celebrated Tabacalera de García factory in the Dominican Republic. Each cigar is meticulously crafted with an intricate blend of extremely costly, hand-selected tobaccos including a rare San Andrés Criollo 98 Rosado wrapper. The new cigar

measures 54 X 6 and will retail for about $30.

The limited edition giclée print was specially commissioned by Altadis U.S.A. for Romeo y Julieta. It is printed on 100% rag museum board and paper. Once printed, each image is meticulously cut, assembled and embellished by hand, creating a unique work of art collectors will treasure for years to come.

Charles Fazzino is one the most popular 3-D artists in the world today. As the creator of fine art silkscreen serigraphs and giclée prints, Fazzino is best known for his obsession with bright colors and wonderful detail. Fazzino's artwork can be found in the private collections of hundreds of prominent sports and entertainment celebrities. He has been commissioned to paint masterful tributes to many high-profile events including The Super Bowl, the MLB All-Star Game, Nascar's Daytona 500 and the Grammy Awards.
