This Cigar is Being Slept On: Saint Luis Rey Regios Cigar Review

Join us as we explore the Saint Luis Rey Regios 2018, a remarkable yet underrated cigar that deserves more recognition. With its update to a 5" length and a 48 ring gauge, the Hermoso No. 4 vitola presents a more substantial experience compared to its predecessor. Founded just before World War II, the Saint Luis Rey brand's origins might be inspired by Thornton Wilder's play “The Bridge of San Luis Rey” or named after the tobacco-rich town of San Luis in the Vuelta Abajo zone, known for producing exceptional wrapper leaves.
This cigar is celebrated for its full flavour intensity, characteristic of the Saint Luis Rey range, made possible by the premium filler and binder leaves sourced from Vuelta Abajo. Each cigar is meticulously handcrafted (Tripa larga, Totalmente a Mano), ensuring a quality smoking experience. Watch the full video to see how the Saint Luis Rey Regios 2018 performs and why it stands out as an underrated gem in the cigar world.

Highly underrated cigar. I enjoy these and the vitola is perfect.

@Cigar Inspector: Great segment. Bang on analysis! This is a cigar that I fell in love with in 2017 while vacationing in Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba on the recommendation of the LCDH manager. I don't know what they cost now, but it was a steal for the amount of enjoyment I got out of a box. I still have 2 left in my humidor. I think I will have a go when the weather is better (Still Cold in Canada)! Thanks again.

I smoked one the other night. My guy at the local shop had just opened the box and called me over to look at how perfect they were. Unbelievable wrapper, perfectly smooth and chocolate-y. I only bought one and I regret it. It smoked perfectly, I didn’t touch it up once. This may be my new favourite “budget” Cuban. $34 in Canada, that’s a steal these days.

Unfortunelately they are very rare to come by.

[@thorstenebers2862]

Never smoked one , but I bought one box last year . BD april 2023. Now they have to age till 2027/8

[@leprick2896]

@@thorstenebers2862 I'd recommend trying one beforehand to see what the flavour profile is and then you can gauge how well it will age.

I ordered 3 Juan Lopez seleccion no. 2 last week and they accidentally sent me 3 of these instead. I'd still love to try the Juans but I'm not complaining right now this thing is damn tasty!

Finally found a box! Thanks for the review I have heard mixed feelings on this stick but it was great even as it’s very young.

Love me a SLR Regios. Solid budget cigar.

Great video ❤ Need to try this one, but would take a lot to beat my favourite Ramon allones specially selected 😊

Last night I dreamt I smoked a cigar. In the dream it was a mild cigar. I distinctly remember enjoying the mellow taste of the cigar.
I am not a cigar-smoker irl.

[@user-rn3kn3lv8f]

if you like oliva then you should really try TATUAJE cigars. The Cojonu 2003 is INSANE. The complexity of flavors is beyond anything I ever smoked.

Hi Usman, just to clarify, in your video you say it's a 2023 but in your description 2018? I enjoy your videos. Thanks, Mike

[@cigarinspector2023]

Appreciate it :)

[@mikemorrison6564]

Nice order up a couple of these this morning, 31$ each up in Canada 🇨🇦 😀

[@armandocastaneda9507]

Hello Mr. Usman, i enjoy watching your cigar reviews. What's your method on cleansing your palate ?

[@derdigercohenllp4400]

Appreciate your videos. Please share the date of the cigar for point of reference (maturity and hopeful development). Thank you n

Hi
Any chance you would be able to help me authenticate some habanos boxes I just got?
Everything seems to check out perfect, except under the UV light…some people online say there should be NO number code in the leaves of the coat of arms.
There really is too many people online saying different things.
Any help from you would be much appreciated.

Actually what’s the point of using soft flame if you gonna torch it anyways?

[@cigarinspector2023]

Because neither lighter type makes any real difference. The whole notion of lighting with a soft or jet is better in any manner makes no sense because it entirely depends on how you light as opposed to what kind of flame you’re lighting with.

[@jwei4827]

@@cigarinspector2023 so you mean by using soft flame at first, then changing it to jet flame is the best way to light it?

[@cigarinspector2023]

@@jwei4827 no I mean either type of flame makes little to no difference. Use jet flame use soft flame cigar will be fine :)

[@keithetchells3932]

If those are worth aging so are Vegueros

[@yan.y.Omnifear]

I found this one quite strong😂

[@cigarinspector2023]

A strong Cuban cigar??
