On each day, the 120 guests attending will not only taste, first hand, this classic medium-strength Habano with a balanced and aromatic blend, but will also enjoy privileged views of the city's port. This hotel had already hosted a Habanos launch with the presentation of the Bolivar Soberano held last year. China is an expanding market for Habanos, S.A., since, during 2019, it has become the second most important market for the company, only behind Spain. This is a country that can boast of having 5 Cohiba Atmosphere venues and 5 La Casa del Habano stores (including mainland China, Hong Kong and Macao). The Romeo y Julieta brand, born in 1875, takes its name from the literary tragedy of the same title by the English writer William Shakespeare. Winston Churchill was one of the brand's most devoted smokers and since his visit to Havana in 1946, his name has been used in some bands and the brand's best-known vitola was named after him: Romeo y Julieta Churchills.
