Saint Luis Rey (Cuba) Regios

The wrapper was in pretty bad shape. One of the worst tripple caps that I have seen. It burned unevenly the whole way. The flavor and aroma was good for the first half. Then it went downhill fast. A bit too ight for my tastes, too. I will try another afte

A rich and full-bodied smoke with strong tabacco flavor and a slightly sweet finish.

The best Cuban robusto with a rich, full taste yet subtle balance.

These cigars are medium bodied and have very subtle, complex flavors. If you don't pay attention you'll miss a lot that is going on here. Pre-light you'll find a slight spicey-sweet aroma. The first inch is very vegetal, like a forest after a rain. Then an undertaste of spice and flowers builds up, followed by a gingery pepper. All very subtle. This is not spicey on the order of a PSD4, but a cinnamon, numeg, clove type spice blended with the "leafy" tobacco nuances. 2nd half floral hints come into the mix and the flavors become layered. Mild spice in front, floral tones next and the tobacco herb at the back of your palate. Last third eveything picks up and intensifies. This is a great cigar for those times when you have a clean palate and can take the time to pay attention to the vast array of flavors. If you are distracted you'd be better off with another cigar.

Great burn with medium dark grey ash. Way too mild with little flavor. Draw was a bit tight but not too bad.

A robust and full flavored stick, a bit rustic but in my opinion a little better than the vaunted Serie A. A lot more flavor, though perhaps at the expense of finesse (and appearance.) Burn is a little troublesome and needs a couple of corrections, but the flavor and aroma is right on with straightforward tangy tobacco over a leathery base. Quite good.

Very nice, nothing distinctive but very enjoyable. Only problem was a few re-lights

Got a box of these for a very reasonable price, I think around $135/25. The presentation of the cigars in the box was fabulous. These puppies burn great and have the classic Cuban "twang", but there's something missing. It's as if the blend needs another type of leaf to round out the flavor. All in all a good smoke, though.

Just got thru enjoying this fine habana (Regios Cab). Very consistant smoke with good balance and flovor. This one was a bit young. Could not resist smoking one out of the box. I will let the others age for a few months. There's nothing better than a good cuban stick and a sniffer of fine brandy

I am very impressed with this cigar. I love the consistency from box to box and from year to year. I have read that SLR was Sinatra's favorite brand. I must agree. And the Regios is my favorite vitola from this brand. It is perfect with a glass of port. The price is right. The length is right. I enoy this cigar, immencely.

I've smoked about 10 out of my box from 04. Just nubbed the lates 1 about 10 minutes ago. These are medium bodied-medium to full flavored gems. Not a lot of complexity but consistently good Cuban flavor from the foot to your fingertips. I would reccomend the cab version if you can get em, they age better. All in all...a good value.

A real nice cigar, reminded me of Partagas profile with a little less spice than a Party short. Smooth, with a great draw and perfect burn. A bit expensive, but a nice change of pace once in awhile.

I had this in the afternoon with some coffee. It was a very pleasant smoke. Had a very smooth and easy profile with that great Cuban flavor. Recommend to try if you like medium Cubans.

very nice cigar!good cuban flavor.nice spicy smoke.

a good cuban, though the burn was slightly uneven, but excellent draw, aroma nice and nice strong taste

Very rich and full of flavor. The warpper was almost maduro and glistened with oils and the cedar aroma from the box was staggering. I like these!

mine were 3 yrs old, and were a good batch. They didn't always burn perfectly, but the woody/spicy/herbal flavor is a nice change of pace. They are a bit pricey . . .

I must say that when i took a look at a box of these roustos the appearance wasn't too pleasing to the eye, but i was wrong to judge a book by its cover. This cuban packs a lot of flavour and a good buy.
