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

Pre light aroma is a faint coco and barn yard type smell. For this cigar I used a punch cutter and disscovered this isn't the best cutter to use as there is only one cap so make sure you use a guillotine cutter to prevent the cap and wrapper from cracking. After I had removed the tobacco from the cap I took a draw which was excellent with only a touch resistance.
First light flavours is a straight aged tobacco core with a hint of pepper on the retro hail the finish Carrys the tobacco taste and slowly develops into a creamy type of note.
Second third draw reveals a sweet coco and caramel on the draw with a slight pepper. The finish is still a creamy aged tobacco
Final third the coco has faded off with the caramel and cream on the draw the cream Carrys over to the finish along with age tobacco finished off with a slight liquorice.
Overall I love this stick full of rich desert like flavours the body is medium ash holding 2inch at a time with no burn problems.

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.

Superb cigar! Lit well, nice draw, plenty of rich grey smoke and a beautifully packed whitish, grey ash. It has a nice rich flavour but not too overpowering. I'm having it with a glass of neat Makers Mark and they are complimenting each other well. I bought this to go with a varied selection of holiday cigars and now I'm regretting only buying the one.
I'm halfway through and still the ash is sitting in one piece from lighting - not bad considering I'm sitting outside with a fair breeze blowing.
Oliva has always made fine alternatives to my favoured Cubans but in my option they are surpassing themselves these days.
Oooops! Took my eye of the ball and now have a lap full of ash - no matter, it was worth it.
Excellent smoke at an excellent price.

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.
