Also name your favorite Edición Regional? #1 La Escepción Don José Edición Regional Italia #2 Ramón Allones Gladiator Edición Regional Andino B.P.E. #3 Sancho Panza Eslavo Edición Regional Serbia 4
Stevieboy Posted March 10 Posted March 10 The Italian REs have been exceptional with two of them being in my top 31. Juan Lopez Selección Superba UK 2. Punch ManTua Italia3. La Escepción Don José 3
riazp Posted March 10 Posted March 10 RA Celestial Finos Asia-Pacificos RE ERDM Infantes Cuba RE Bolivar Especiales No. 2 German RE 2
avitus Posted March 10 Posted March 10 My vote goes to Cuban RE: El Rey del Mundo Infantes San Cristóbal de la HabanaLa Cabaña Bolívar B-2 (ER Canada) 2
Islandboy Posted March 10 Posted March 10 I’ve seen pretty consistent results from anything from the Belux, Benelux or Paises Bajos regions. 4
ender.lmm Posted March 10 Posted March 10 No love for Selectos Finos (La Escepcion RE Italia)? Very difficult question, in no particular order: Any of the Edmundo Dantes RE Mexico (Conde) ERDM LA Reina Bolivar Británicas RE Gran Bretaña La Escepcion Selector Finos RE Italia Ramon Allones Celestiales Finos RE Asia Pacífico I may name maybe 10 I really liked Jose Sent from my CPH2451 using Tapatalk 3
MrFolgers Posted March 10 Posted March 10 The RA Private Stock 230 was hands down the BEST cigar I've ever had. I only had one, but my god it was euphoric. Unpopular opinion, I like the Edmundo Dantes Conde Belicoso over the Conde 54/109. And I'm gonna regret saying it because they are still some what affordable in today's market, the Sancho Panza OMHPOΣ Edición Regional Grecia y Chipre are smoking out of this world. I've gone through 3 boxes and always on the look out for more. 4
Glass Half Full Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Agree with all of the above (except I’ve missed a couple of the newer ones). The La Escepcíon was hands down my best ever cigar, until a friend shared some highly unusual customs. Nonetheless, the La Escepcíon will always hold a special place in my memory. 3
mohammed.s.almutlaq11 Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Its hard to ask that because no one can try them all without spending a lot of money, but I will say what I tried and what is best (the top one in the list is the best). Ramon Allones Phoenicia 40 Diplomaticos Grandes Juan Lopez Hat Trick Ramon Allones Private Stock 230 Juan Lopez Adon Diplomaticos El Emisario Swiss Regional Quai d'Orsay Sélection Royale Swiss Regional - box of 50 La Gloria Cubana Medaille D'Or Especial Belux Juan Lopez Dragones - its good Sancho Panza Gran Quixote Belux (it is horrible). 2
Popular Post Puros Y Vino Posted March 11 Popular Post Posted March 11 Been chasing select regionals for years. Love the program, hate how hard it is to get them. But also kind of fun dong so. My top RE's La Escepcion Selectos Finos (exquisite full bodied smokes from the start. Aging fantastically) Ramon Allones Celestiales Finos (probably the strongest CC I've had. Absolute monsters when fresh, but still delivering tons of flavour. Also aging beautifully) La Escepcion Don Jose (the power of the RA Selectos Finos, the finesse of the Selectos Finos) Punch Mantua (another hit in the Italian region. Chased these aggressively and glad I did. Very close to the LESF in terms of finesse. Very Un-Punch like, but great) Juan Lopez Seleccion Superba (got gifted one from a friend. Smoked it, blew my mind, grabbed two boxes ASAP. Absolutely stellar performer. Smell great cold, lots of flavour lit). Bolivar Bosphorus. (on par with RACF in terms of body. TONS of flavour. Didn't get many of these but have smoked through a lot of them rather quickly. That says something) El Rey Del Mundo Infantes. (smoked through a few boxes rather quickly. Packed with flavour) La Gloria Cubana Invictos (smoked one on the streets of Rome, went in and grabbed five boxes. Another hit for Italy) Ramon Allones Gladiator (monster smoke, tons of flavour) Ramone Allones Super Ramon (Canadian Regional makes the list. Huge Piramide, lots of complexity). 4 1

Loved the fomat, nice change of pace from the bigger RG's Cuba is leaning towards. 1
gormag38 Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Have yet to try the La Escepcion Regionals. I know when they do come up people fork over good money for 'em and they go quick; usually that a pretty good sign. For me the Regionals that stand out are: Bolivar Simones RE Canada Easily tops for me. Unlike any other Bolivar I've ever had. Such a good under appreciated cigar ERDM Tainos RE Formosa. Continue to age well imo, despite not being a ball tearer in strength PL Encantos RE Asia Pacific. First one I had was a tent peg, the two others I've had were amazing.
SonicStag Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Surprised nobody has mentioned the El Rey Del Mundo - La Reina.
Lunettesman Posted March 11 Posted March 11 I never understood that love for the Italian Editions. I never had one that appealed to me in anyways. I was lucky to smoke enough of them to confirm I don't like 'em much. Juan Lopez Éminentes RE Suiza Bolivar Legendarios RE Suiza Bolivar Poderosos RE Allemania
zeedubbya Posted March 11 Posted March 11 This is easy for top 3, rest… a bit challenging. 1.) PL Magnificos 2.) PL Lonsdales 3.) La Escepcion Selctos Finos 4-6–. Edmundo Dantes 109, Bushidos, Edmundo Dantes Conde 54 Your mileage may vary, but these are my favorites. 2

I agree, this cigar wasn’t rolled right or something. Sorry for those of you trying to let them go, but I smoked 5-7 of them and they were all very "meh".
vinnyvega Posted March 12 Posted March 12 RA Gordito de Allones Punch Sir David La Escepción Selectos Finos
Justins123 Posted March 12 Posted March 12 There’s been some great REs but the majority in my experience have been lackluster. Good example of a subpar one I smoked today. RA Petite Belicoso.
