Regius Orchant Seleccion Nicaragua 2024 Robusto Cigar - Box of 10

While the golden rule is never to compare, it’s hard not to hold this stick in high regard. Arriving as a standout selection in a mystery sampler, this 52-ring gauge Robustos impressed immediately with its seamless construction and oily wrapper. The cold draw offered a reassuring resistance, releasing distinct notes of rich cocoa and earth. Upon lighting, the first third delivered a profile dominated by soft, velvety chocolate. The burn line remained razor-sharp, producing a sturdy, stacking ash that spoke volumes about the quality of the roll. I paired this with a Tamdhu 18-Year-Old Sherry Cask; the dried fruit profile of the single malt complemented the cigar’s natural sweetness beautifully. While I encountered some unexpected harshness and a slight spike in strength during the second third, the transition into the final third saw the flavors settle back into a harmonious balance. For a smoke that easily yields a relaxing hour of complexity, the value proposition here is undeniable. Between the superb construction and the refined flavor transitions, this is a definitive five-star experience.

I got this as a try something new cigar and the system did well! I really enjoyed this cigar, I’ve only had probably 20 cigar but getting much more into them recently! but this one is by far my favourite so far, easy draw, held together perfectly, the ash stacked great and all 3 thirds brought me something new with this, all very pleasant experiences! will 100% order a couple more for my cigar box, for when I know I want a cigar but don’t want to risk trying something new, I know I will enjoy this time and time again! Have also recommended to a friend who has also now smoked and matched my opinion!

I received this as part of a Mystery Cigar and was very pleased with it. I am still relatively new to cigars, but my ability to identify flavours is developing. The aroma before lighting was very appealing, with a light peppery spice and a subtle sweetness that immediately drew me in. The cigar was well constructed and burned almost perfectly throughout. The bands looked great and have a beautiful texture which just added to the overall experience. There was a slight uneven burn at one point, but it corrected itself without any need for touch ups. The flavour really came into its own as it moved into the second third, with dark chocolate and cocoa notes developing into creamy hazelnut tones. The profile remained consistent and very enjoyable for the remainder of the smoke.

Straight off the bat when opening up the Regius you get dark chocolate and coffee notes which carry over into the flavour. The draw was clean and the burn is slow and even. In terms of strength, it’s a medium to full bodied cigar which can pack a punch but isn’t overpowering like some Cubans I’ve tried. Burn time lasted about 30 minutes to the second band (where I personally tend to call it a day) Overall a great smoke for the price and can’t complain. Best as an evening cigar with a sweet rum.

Regius Orchant Seleccion Nicaragua 2024 Robusto construction was not great draw was good at the start but unfortunately became very tight half way through. But first half construction was very good it's. Other than that it was very nice experience second half wasn't burning very good but the flavours of coffee and cacao where very nice throughout. I will order it again (got it through £10 mystery cigar) maybe in a bigger format!
