The Blackwoods sweet aromatic cigars are tasty smoke, although not as sweet as one may expect. If you're familiar with Swishers Sweets, these aren't quite the same; however, the Blackwoods have an old west style to them and a tight construction. Sometimes the draw can be difficult at times and may need relighting. They last for around 15-20 minutes. Again, a very tasty cigar with a western feel. Apart from the draw, these cigars are a great choice for the occasional treat (goes well with a sweet bourbon).

This is very light in flavour, very smooth and slightly sweet. Construction is a bit tighter than the hand-rolled cigars I've had, but I didn't have any problems with draw. It's pleasant enough, but I'm not fully convinced.

I've seen these described as the mildest of the Bolivar range being merely Medium Bodied. I'd had one of these in my humidor for quite a few months just waiting for a suitable occasion on which to indulge and after winning a particularly tricky game of bowls I decided that such a time had arrived.
The construction, burn and draw were all faultless and the flavours were first rate.
All in all an excellent cigar.
Any chance of a shorter version, Simon?

First I have to thank my good friends at C.GARS Ltd. How did they know that one of my favorite cigars was the Bolivar Royal Corona? It must have been ESP, or some kind of stealth surveillance, because that's what showed up in my mailbox. Three absolutely perfect Robustos. Simon Bolivar is a great old line of cigars and was named after that great submarine USS SIMON BOLIVAR (SSBN-641).
It was raining like crazy in Los Angeles, and I had been itching to get outside and smoke a cigar. Someone must have known that I was getting desperate, because suddenly it stopped raining. The sun came out from behind great white clouds, I was more than ready to light up. So, off to my favorite beach I went. Paradise Cove is just a few miles north of Malibu, cliffs and rocks isolate it from the tourists, what an exquisite place to enjoy exquisite cigars!
I took all three out and admired their beautiful construction. All were very close in color, a warm Colorado, the color of rich well worn leather and all had that pre-light aroma of woods, or maybe m

The joint NASA-Russian exploratory space launch was minutes away. As the American Flight Commander for the mission, I approached my comrade counterpart and introduced myself.
"Clutch MacGroyne," I said to her.
"Ivanna Kutcherkokkov," she replied.
"Well Ivanna, glad to meet you."
The niceties completed, we boarded the starship and prepared for liftoff. While Ground Control initiated the countdown, I reached into my spacesuit and pulled out a Bolivar Petit Corona. Nothing like the thought of a luxurious spicy little smoke to calm one's pre-flight jitters.
Bolivar Petit Coronas have always been a particular favorite of mine, and this one would be no exception. It was a classicly-built Boli: a deep chocolate brown wrapper wound with such precision as to make it appear seamless. It was smooth and oily to the touch, and it felt heavier than one might expect from a 42 ring shorty, an indication that there was no skimping on the bunching of the filler.
The launch went without a hitch and soon we were above the Earth's atmosphere, streaki
