Rey del Mundo Choix Du Roi 2016 Regional Edition Belux 2016 - 10 cigars [5.1" x 55]

Only a limited amount of boxes were made, which makes it a rarity

  • • Light to Medium cigar with rich woodsy and earthy flavors
  • • Similar to a Hoyo Epicure No.2 or a Choix Supreme but with a lot more character

Its flawless construction and its beautiful flavor profile gives it a great potential for aging.

Presentation:

The Rey del Mundo Choix Du Roi 2016 RE Belux 2016 comes in a numbered semi boite nature box of 10 cigars (only 9,000 have been produced) with Habanos packing code SBN-UW-n-10-n-10 .

Dimensions:

Length: 130 mm (5.1 inches)

Ring Gauge: 55

Shape: 

Montesco

Appearance:

The wrapper has a beautiful creamy chocolate color, a virtually veinless Colorado Claro. The cigar feels smooth with no imperfection and a neat triple cap. No soft spots, it well packed from the cap to the foot. The Choix du Roi sports a secondary band that reads “Regional Edition” in addition to the regular Rey del Mundo band.

Smoking Notes:

Before lighting up

The aroma at cold is mainly of the typical Cuban woodiness.

Burn/ Draw

The Choix du Roi lights up effortlessly and reveals a draw that is spot on, with the right amount of resistance. Lots of smoke from the get-go.

Initial third:

Ample wood right away, with plenty of creamy flavors as well. Pretty unexpected from a young cigar. Very typical Cuban flavors that are not overpowerful. The cigar is at a mild-to-medium level. The great construction on the Choix du Roi allows it to burn slowly and can stay lit for some time without needing attention.

Middle third:

The intensity of flavors ramp up in the middle third, where the creaminess recedes almost completely and there is now just wood and earth. There are also some faint fruity notes and some nuttiness on the retrohale. The body is at a medium level now.

Final third:

Letting the cigar away for a couple of minutes allows it to reveal more complexity towards the end of the cigar. The creaminess is back with now some sweeter notes, such as vanilla. When getting closer to the nub, some hints of ammonia come in the forefront revealing the young character of the Choix du Roi but without compromising a great smoking experience.

Overall an unmissable Regional Edition which will only get better with age, but hurry up, only limited quantity available!

Smoking time:   40 minutes – 60 minutes

A pleasant surprise , 5/12/2020
By DAS
I had no idea what to expect from this Regional Edition. What a pleasant surprise. A full-bodied smoke that can truly hold one's attention. When it comes back in stock if ever - get it.
A bit tight , 3/10/2020
By ROB
Well, I've got to be honest here.
I was really looking forward to these as I"m fond of El Rey Del Mundo. So, I acquired a box in May/19, box date Sept/16, let them rest for a week and excitedly lit one up.
I have now smoked 7 of them. 3 were exactly what I expected and delightful. Unfortunately, 4 of them were rolled so tight as to not be a relaxing, enjoyable experience. I,in fact, did not smoke them. The remaining 3 feel extremely firm... We will see.
Excellent Cigar - Needs Time , 12/6/2019

Excellent cigar. Nice ring size. Good flavor and good draw. Needs to stay in the humidor for a while. And then be enjoyed!

Nice size, good draw and burn. Tastier then the Hoyo No 2s. Medium strength for sure. Excellent!

A beautiful Regional.
Cigar of a generous gauge, rich in flavors with a slight taste of cedar! Without doubt one of the best regional I smoked from 2 years to ca.
