While the 80th anniversary of Montecristo took center stage at the 2015 IPCPR of Altadis USA, another brand is celebrating an anniversary. This year is the 140th anniversary of the Romeo y Julieta brand. Recently Altadis released a special limited edition vitola of its iconic Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real line in a 7 x 54 Gran Churchill size.

The Gran Churchill keeps to the same blend as the Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real.  It is packaged in a 20 count hand-painted box.  Production is slated for 1,500 boxes. Pricing is $.9.25 per cigar.
