Regius & Regius Connecticut Grandido Cigar - 2 x Bundle of 25 (50) Bundle Deal

REGIUS

The Latin Regius denotes of a ‘King’. We present you a regal smoking experience: to enjoy a hand-made King of Cigars.

Gaius Petronius Arbiter (AD27) was a Roman writer and courtier for Emperor Nero who devoted himself to a life of pleasure. Yet far from being an ordinary, vulgar profligate, he became known as an accomplished voluptuary.

Showing capacity for outrageous indulgence, he was looked upon by Nero to be the absolute authority on questions of taste (arbiter elegantiae), especially with the science of alchemy.

In his memory the superb brand of cigars ‘Regius’ was created. The alchemy of cultivating and blending the finest aged tobacco to achieve the best possible taste, an even burning quality and elegant aromas.

We invite you to be arbiter elegantiae, the judge of elegance, of the beautifully hand crafted and flavoursome creations that are Regius Cigars.

REGIUS CONNECTICUT

Connecticut seed wrapper grown in the Talanga valley in Honduras. 

Most Connecticut wrappers are from Ecuador - they look nice but lack much of the depth and complexity needed in a premium cigar. In the US, Connecticut cigars have a reputation for being very mild and boring yet inoffensive. This cigar was made to have complexity and flavour displaying the best out of the wrapper tobacco. More on that below. 

Featuring a Talanga wrapper because it exhibits the best of Connecticut seed Tobacco. The floral delicate tones, the creamy texture without the harshness or the finish of other varietals of Nicaraguan or much new world Tobacco. It has flavour without the acidity and sourness of other types of Connecticut tobacco. 

It’s a Connecticut with flavour, not a cigar to smoke when you need something in your hand. A cigar that surprises people when they smoke it - surprises them that a Connecticut cigar can have that much flavour and complexity and still be acceptable strength wise to the “usual” Connecticut smoker.

This cigar is a versatile, medium bodied blend for those long afternoons and evenings. Perfect with your favourite wine or spirit, it achieves a delicate combination of complexity and a satisfying balance to fulfil even the most discerning of palates.
