Regius Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Stuart
I ordered two of these and smoked them in two very different circumstances.
The first was within a week of purchase on an evening dog walk. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. With nothing more than a bitter smoke which tasted like the first ever cigarette I smoked behind the bike shed at school. It stuck at the back of the throat and tasted like the smell of a pub the morning after the night before (pre-smoking ban)! After it went out the second time at about 1/4 left, I binned it.
I put the second in the humidor and was ready to leave it there forever. Until one sunny evening, around 3 months later, with a whiskey old fashioned at my side, I decided to take a chance. After all, I had an Upman Coronas Junior as a back up.
Pre-light was uneventful and I was ready for more bitterness when lit, but was pleasantly surprised. My first hit was sweet and mellow, completely the opposite to the first.
It burnt quickly but evenly, lasting a good 40 minutes. The taste remained sweet throughout the whole smoke, with introductions of walnut and woodsmoke it was very plea

Not knowing much about cigars, or the world revolving them, I must say I enjoy this cigar. The price is fine for anybody wishing for a nice smoke and is perfect for sitting in the garden with a whiskey, or on holiday just having a stroll.
would and have recommended to all.

A great light smoke with very little after taste. Smooth and even burn ideal for the first timer.

Purchased two of these one for a friend and one for myself as we both enjoy the romeo no2s. Took it on holiday with me and saved it till the last evening as a holiday treat. I had smoked a inka secret blend rojo red tres petit corona a few evenings before and was surprised by how tasty it was, especially as it was a cheap smoke. The same can not be said for this. It was not a bad smoke but by no means a good smoke. The best i can say is that it past 45 mins or so inoffensivley but for me it was quite bland and lacked any real flavour.

What an awesome budget range big cigar! Smoked this on a wander along the River Lym towards Lyme Regis (almost sounds like Regius!) and was blown away by it's flavour, complexity and taste.
At first I thought the cigar felt a little full (i.e possibly plugged) but I needn't have worried. It lit superbly and delivered all the way to the end. It had hints of wood and nuts and lashings of cream to compliment its flavours.
I've smoked quite a few Regius cigars before but I have to say this is by far the best of the bunch. Will definitely be back for more of these.

Perfect draw, burn and construction. Lasted a full 45 minutes. Wonderful flavours all the way down. Slight nicotine "hit," at the end but that was probably my fault for smoking it almost until it burnt my fingers. Didn't want to put this one down.
