Description
The Saint Luis Rey Regios is a complex and creamy medium-full bodied Coronas Extra, 5″ (127mm) long, of 48 ring gauge. This is an admirable Hermoso, complex and very gratifying. It gets even better when aged for 2 to 3 years.
• Its full of traditional Cuban flavors, dominated by spicy and leathery aromas.
• Creamy yet complex. Goes along very well with coffee.
It’s a real gem. Not sure why it isn’t more renowned. A great value for the price.
