BOLIVAR

Simon Bolivar was one of the great historic figures of the 19th Century who liberated much of South America from Spanish rule.

The Bolivar brand was created in 1902 and is based today in the Partagas factory which is in the heart of Havana. 

It is perhaps not surprising that a Habano named after such a powerful figure is blended to match his might. Bolivar is among the strongest, most full bodied of all Habanos. It boasts an unrivalled richness of flavour in its blend of Vuelta Abajo zone filler and binder tobacco that makes it one of the most sought-after marques amongst experienced smokers. 

All sizes of Bolivar are ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano,’ – long filler, totally handmade. It is the brand of choice for enthusiasts who like strong flavours!

PETIT CORONA

Compare this Mareva with others and you will appreciate its richness of flavour. A powerful smoke and perhaps not for a beginner.

Tasting Notes

Surprisingly strong for a petit corona, with a very full spicy aroma. If you want a mini corona gigantes, because you are short of time this is the mareva sized cigar for you. Dark wrappers, full flavour and full strength rounded off to near perfection.

---- 

89 / 100 

"Semi-box pressed with a lightly colored wrapper and nice cap. The draw and burn are notably uneven, but the cigar still produces medium-bodied peppery, nutty flavors with a leathery finish..."

After sampler pack I decided to order some of these in preference to my usual Romeo y Julieta No2 / 3 which had lately suffered uneven burn and varied draw characteristics. In contrast these Bolivars have with one exception drawn very well with reasonably even burns. The flavour is a bit bland to my taste, but perfectly acceptable. At the price bearing in mind it's all going to HM Treasury who do so much to make our lives "interesting" they are fair value in my view. They will be always part of my futeure buy list.

Bolivars are delightful. That's a fact. I don't think I've ever had one that I didn't like however they are notorious for their strength (to the extent that on a tour of the Partagas factory in Havana we were directly warned). Whilst these aren't as good as the Belicosos, which are perhaps my favourite of the range, they are certainly a decent analog, and being smaller I don't feel dizzy and nauseated afterward. These babies are medium/full flavour - earthy, dark choc and spice - complemented perfectly by a glass of Islay whisky. I'm not completely sure why but generally I prefer to smoke these in the winter.

This was a great smoke. Nice smooth pepper tastes with hints of spice that's not over powering. The draw was very smooth and not too tight and the ash was solid and held well together. I had this in the sun in my back yard in New Zealand with a great glass of red. A fantastic smoke and would recommend to anyone.

I should have added to previous review great wrapper, great draw, neither too loose or tight! I recommend them.

Ive been trying a number of cigars recently, seeking out my preferrd. I really like the Inkas,Cohiba Siglos work well for me also, and I look forward to tasting more Cohibas as time goes by, but having just enjoyed an EXCELLENT Bolivar Petit Corona on Valentines Night, I have to review this. Creamy with a mild pepper taste as it goes down, but neither too mild like a Guantanamera, or too strong (for me) like the end of a Siglo I, I think Ive found my ideal. This Bolivar gave me 40 mins of absolute pleasure. Ill be in the Edinburgh shop tomorrow to stock up.
