Regalos Maduro

Regalos cigars are handmade in Honduras using a blend of all Cuban-seed tobaccos grown in the Dominican Republic, the most mountainous regions of Honduras, and in the Jalapa region of Nicaragua. This line of cigars has received high marks and is recommended by both Cigar Aficionado and Smoke magazines. We found the Churchill featured this month to offer a very complex, flavorful, and thoroughly enjoyable smoking experience. Look for a smooth buttery wrapper with an appealing oily sheen in this very well-constructed cigar. It was very evenly wrapped with no soft spots and solid without being hard. We found it started smooth and mellow and then built to offer loads of creamy, full flavor. Note great billows of smoke on every draw but, surprisingly, the aroma was fairly light. Overall this is a great smoke for all tastes. Initiates to the maduro will appreciate the subtle creaminess that doesn't overpower; while experienced smokers will enjoy the medium-to-full-bodied flavor this cigar imparts. Consider smoking it with a heavy ale or brandy.
