I found this one quite hard going.
Not because of the draw but the taste.
Otherwise it looks and smells unlit nice.
Could be a good step up for a cigarette smoker.

Fantastic cigar for the price. Lovely robust flavours. Smooth smoke, lasted little under 45mins. Ideal every day smoke if your budget cannot stretch to a Cuban a day

Great cigar, burned evenly right down to the label and I only had to touch up a couple times near the end, pure white ash held well and came off in three large chunks throughout the smoke. The draw was quite loose producing plenty of smoke and this cigar burned quite fast, especially for a robusto. Very impressed considering the low price.

Regius Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Graham
Delighted to report that I had a post prandial Regius coronas, after my earlier poor experience of one I bought of three earlier today, and how different it was. I lit it with a little 'blow torch' lighter and it responded in splendid fashion. The cigar lasted for just under an hour of constant smoking, going out only once towards the end. It relit without any difficulty or detriment to its continued pleasure, down to the last inch. As I am not a connoisseur I would not venture taste descriptions but I can say that it was consistent throughout, pleasurably mild and flavoursome, even in both draw and burning. I am so pleased to be able to contradict the previous review and can confirm that, for a £6 cigar it was a snip. I have been looking for a good lunchtime or coffee break stick and this would fill those boots suitably.

Regius Petit Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Graham
Sadly, I have just submitted a very poor review of the Regius coronas, but no such criticism for the petit robustas. I smoked one last evening which was a pleasure from first to last draw, and whilst it lasted a creditable 30 minutes with only two ash taps, I was sorry to let it go out, with very little left between my fingers. Well done Regius. Mild, complex and well formed, matched by a slow, cool and even burn. Will trade up to the full robusta next time that I am in the city and see if this pleasure is amplied by the laroger model! Why do I always buy them in singles?

Regius Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Graham
I had one of the Regius robustas last evening, which ended far too soon after a most satisfying and enjoyable 30 minutes. I was so impressed I returned to Turmeaus in Liverpool this morning and purchased three of the Regius coronas, in eager anticipation of perhaps a quicker (being a little slimmer) burn, but equal pleasure. I am sorry to say that the first one has been a disaster, cigar wise. Having lit it in patient manner with a wooden taper, adding to the anticipated pleasure of the impending smoke, the cigar never really drew a good mouthful from the outset. Within minutes it had 'tunnelled' and burnt out one side. I gave up less than a third into it, and watched it extinguish itself almost immediately. I am now in some trepidation of trying either of the remaining two. There was no real taste other than a bitter, harsh and flavourless haze. I cut the spent section only to discover that it had burned a tunnel straight through to the smoking end. Little wonder it was hot and very unpleasant. I am sure that these things happen from time to time, and no fault of the helpful staff i
