BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
SLR Regios

Regios are medium strength with lots of flavor a great morning smoke for me. Compared to the Serie A they are a little stronger without the subtle complexity of the larger stick.
For the money a really decent cigar.

Serie A
Round and well balanced. Has a bewitching mix of animal and botanical fragrances - a summery musk - opening on full, progressive flavours. The evolution of aromas takes place within a woody spectrum, followed by a honeyed trace, before ending on a sustained note of warm exotic nuances. Undeniably seductive.
Regios
A superb robusto, with delicate chocolate and gingerbread fragrance. Long lasting, it very subtly imposes its sweet and balmy aromas on the palate. Its steady burning accentuates its plentitute, making it a pleasant cigar whether accompanying a meal or a nightcap.

Hope that helps mate.. I have tried both and concur with his assessment wholeheartedly but wouldn't be able to express it as eloquently.The animal and musky part in the serie A is not present in the regios and to me signifies the biggest difference. The regios has the gingerbread aroma that a serie A doesn't have to the same degree (it is overpowered at larged by the musk. ).

I really like the Regios. Smoked a late 08 and it had a meduim doughy, gingerbread like flavor to it. While I enjoyed this cigar fairly young. I got a feeling they are going to be really good in a couple of years.

I had some 99's at the festival that were great. I kinda prefer the lonsdales and Series A from those years but the Regios are an often over looked cigar.
Saint Luis Rey- Cuba.
Thanks, I will search a couple of these out.
Great value robusto. As always better with some time in the humidor. Balanced flavor, and medium bodied, I think it's also the cheapest robusto out of Cuba. Can be one of my favs, depending on my erratic mood.
