El Rey del Mundo Elegantes SWISS Regional Production 2010 (box of 25)

Produced in 2,400 individually numbered boxes of 25, the new El Rey del Mundo Elegantes is one (more to come) of the vitolas that Habanos has created for the Swiss Regional production for 2010. Rolled with leaves form the Vuelta Abajo region, the Elegantes are already showing a creaminess in the smoke and although young, the green aspects are starting to give way to silky fruity flavour.

Dark maduro colour this cigar is developing. Having not smoked one for a year there has certinaly been a noticeable difference . Some of the flavours have settled down but still a few more years is needed in what could well become great. Still very much a slow burner though.

A blend of fruits and forest make up this cigar. It is an intriguing one, gentle on the taste but subtle in its offerings. All levels can go for this (it won't blow you away with power) - there's plenty of exploring to do, which is for me at least, fascinating and useful in building up one's palate.

A year on after its official release this cigar is developing into a real winner. Spices bounce around the mouth to give you a truly epic experience. Feedback is only positive on this one.
