Saint Luis Rey

Saint Luis Rey

Year of foundation: 1940
Tobacco Country: Cuba
Tobacco Procedence: Vuelta Abajo
Factory: Romeo y Julieta

While the origin of the name is not very clear, it may be because of the 1927 novel “The Bridge of San Luis Rey” from American author Thornton Wilder, or it may as well because of Louis IX, the 13th century King of France nicknamed Saint Louis. But it may be simply because of the town of San Luis located in the Vuelta Abajo tobacco zone. Saint Luis Rey has been established in 1938 and is manufacturing only handmade cigars using tobacco from the Vuelta Abajo and the Semi Vuelta region. The best selling vitola is the Saint Luis Regios as the other cigars of the line-up have been discontinued since the 2010’s.
There is also a Non Cuban Saint Luis Rey cigar brand that was started after the Cuban revolution. However, the original brand is Cuban Saint Luis Rey that is mentioned here.

    Saint Luis Rey Pura Vida 2020 Costa Rica Regional Edition - 10 cigars

    499,00 $US

    The Saint Luis Rey Pura Vida is a 2020 Costa Rica Exclusive Regional Edition cigar, a 4.72” (120 mm) by 54 ring gauge, and comes in a box of 10 cigars. Only 6,000 boxes have been made in Cuba, so it is a cigar that will be hard to find very shortly. Similar in size as the previous Costa Rica and Nicaragua Regional Exclusive Habano in 2017 (the Ramon Allones Nuevo Mundo), it is of Magnum 54 vitola, a highly praised format in the region. Named Pura Vida after the popular local saying that is used to wish someone’s happiness at the end or at the beginning of a conversation. Entirely hand rolled with tobacco grown in the Vuelta Abajo region, this is a beautiful cigar, very comparable to the highly acclaimed and now discontinued Saint Luis Rey Serie A. The Pura Vida will certainly get even better after some aging, so do not miss your chance to get this little gem while available.
