El Presidente Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Saint Luis Rey Regio When they are available.....they are jumped on faster than a fat kid on cake. The reason? They have been red hot in the past couple of years. Let's talk the Saint Luis Rey Regio Do you like Saint Luis Rey Regio? Where does it stand in the ranks of the other existing Robusto's/Hermoso's 4 Have you noticed a blend/flavour/body change over the years? If so, approximately when? How long does it take you to smoke a Saint Luis Rey Regio? Do the poll! Salute Regie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dominattorney Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Unpopular opinion perhaps but I don't get the Regio. It's never been a top performing robusto/hermosa4 in my mind and there are too many better alternatives in that lineup. PSD4 when on, uppman Connie 1.

Ites Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Looks like you forgot to change the cigar in reference for question 4, @Elpresidente:) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin865 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I find the Regios in my top 3 Hermoso #4 with the Picardores and Choix Supreme 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangolf18 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Haven't smoked one in probably 4-5 years but I remember always being somewhat let down and would opt to go for a RASS or ERDM Choix Supreme instead. The Regio really had nothing going for it imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakebarnes Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 It's been quite a while and I can't find my old tasting notes. I remember these getting nice with some age--good enough fresh, but had the potential to gain more fruity sweetness as they aged. But again, it's been quite a few years since I think I've had one and I was more into the Serie A at that time. Guess I should have one soon and revisit.

asudevil08 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 This cigar screams 6'er to me on 24/24. Cant wait for that magical unicorn day. 😉 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSXCIGAR Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Regios are a nice change of pace cigar. I find them very similar to the Ex 4 in terms of execution--substitute berry tart for the RyJ cherry. Some leather/licorice in there. Not a cigar I could smoke every day unlike the Famosos or Connie 1. Just doesn't stand out enough. A box of Regios would last me a year or more. They also are very prone to construction issues in my experience, especially those rolled more loosely. Wind tunnel draws and poor burning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDB Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I love ‘em. SLR can be among the ‘sweetest’ berry fruited smokes for me. But they seem to vary a lot in execution: some are very light, others surprisingly intense. All in all though, a keeper. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightonCorgi Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 My thoughts are similar to @dominattorney to the Regios or actually the whole SLR range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkI84 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Wish I could participate in this one - I remember liking these a lot, maybe some stone fruit, but since I only had a couple and it's been maybe a year since I've seen any in stock my memory is a bit fuzzy. Gonna have any come in soon @El Presidente? Pretty please... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakebarnes Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I guess I should smoke one this weekend and review for this purpose. Seems like one we don't have as much feedback on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
