Bolivar Tubos No. 2 Cigar - 1 Single
by Daniel
This was my first Bolivar experience, and was a great introduction to the brand. Lasting around 40 minutes, this made a nice evening smoke. Peppery, especially in the last third. Not too harsh at any point. Buy one, you wont regret it.

bought two tins of these cigarillos after reading the reviews. As a newbie i thought the vanilla taste would suit my palate but to be honest I was impressed with the taste, If only the tasted as good as the smell. I wont be buying these again.

A great smoke indeed, excellent smoke output even when resting. The draw was loose, but not free, just the way I personally like it, What really stands out is how smooth this cigar is, slick on the tongue, in a good way. Even though this is supposed to be medium to full strength, taking your time with it (60 minutes) allows even lightweights like me to manage the strength without major issues.
Only reason I'm not giving it a 5 stars is because the cigar doesn't transition and isn't overly complex, but thats the only negative to an excellent cigar had a very very good price point. I will be buying more.

Cuaba Distinguidos Cigar - 1 Single

Not too impressed with this cigar. The wrapper pretty much fell apart and it took ages to get it going. Very hard to draw. The Divinos is a favourite of mine and I'd much rather have two or three of the small Divinos than bother with this troublesome big brother.

Great cigar – first third was cool, smooth and creamy, with a little less smoke output than I like but the second third was when it really took off for me. Very full of flavour, huge smoke output and still very cool. Towards the end of the second third, it started getting more spicy, still with great smoke and very tasty up until half way through the last third. Excellent construction, lit well and burned evenly. No maintenance required, the ash fell off at 1 1/2" and I was smoking this cigar for a solid hour. Ideal strength for me, much better than the Azul Blue range which I found quite wishy washy. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars from me is because I don't give 5 stars easily, and the first third was only a 4 star smoke.

Lit one of these this afternoon in the sun. Construction was good, it lit and burned well with a good volume of smoke. Draw was a tiny bit firm to begin with but soon eased up. Flavour-wise this cigar didn't do much for me. It wasn't smooth, it wasn't bitter, it wasn't hot, it wasn't cool, it just wasn't really anything. I know that at £5.49 this is a "budget" cigar, but I would much sooner smoke an Independencia 1898 for half the money. I am looking forward to trying more from the Inka range though, next up is a Rojo Cristale.
