lemmycaution Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 I've been smoking through a box of Regios (HQ 08) that have been absolutely amazing. They have all been consistent in construction and flavor. Hope that helps you out, good luck.

I have gone through several boxes of each. Have yet to smoke a good Regio. All the one I have had are ugly windtunnels and taste like sour cardboard. Not a fan.
jquest63 Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Why not try both, as they either one can smoke well. Let your taste buds and olfactory be your guide.
Yoruba Hacker Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Haven't smoked a JL2 in years but used to love them. The Regios, on the other hand, are always in stock. Outstanding cigars. Can't do without them.
mbrody Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Smoked and have them both. 4 boxes JL2 vs 1 box Regio. The 4:1 ratio is based upon flavor that I prefer. Regio is good, jl2 just suits me better.
thechenman Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 I'd have to cast my vote for the SLR Regio, although I prefer the Serie A over the Regio. I've smoked both the Juan Lopez 1 and 2. Prefer the 2 over the 1, but both SLRs are better than the 1 IMHO.
Colt45 Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Deano, I agree with trying a few of each and see what you think. While you're at it, in a similar format, try a few VR Famosos
bigstone Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 two great cigars, are both good in cab 50', i prefer JL has a constant quality!
SethLG Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Both great cigars, but like others I prefer the Serie A and JL#1 over the #2 and Regio. If I had to choose though, probably the Regio, just because I have had some incredible ones, but the JL #2 have always been more consistent.
bassman Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Never a big JL #1 or #2 fan- except for some 97 JL#1s I recently got. HQ 08 Regios are very nice. Good rich flavor. But, you may not like the same cigars as me. I'd suggest adding a couple singles of each to your next order & see what YOUR taste prefers.
ksblazer Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 I've smoked 08 Regios and JL2's. They are both are great cigars. My 08 Regios are going through a sick phase now. I'd pick the one with the flavor profile that you prefer.
Ellery Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 My vote is with the Regio. Im a big fan of the SLR line in general.
mhartnett Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 Never had a Regio, but I've enjoyed the JL2s a lot.
