Bolivar Petit Coronas Cigar - 1 Single
by Alistair
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.

I agree with the previous reviewer, Andrew. These are not full bodied. However, the erroneous description aside these are an excellent cigar for me.
They last around 35 minutes, have a great even burn and a draw that doesn't require an industrial hoover attachment.
There is plenty of blue smoke and a warm, mellow taste that is consistent throughout and doesn't overpower. The ash is kept well for about half the smoke and is a pretty even colour.
I have smoked over 70 of these cigars and I haven't had a single runner or a plug and not one has required me to "manage" the smoke.
Brilliant and 5/5 from me!

By no stretch of the imagination is this a full bodied or full strength cigar. It was very mild with a simple tobacco flavour and some very subtle sweet fruity flavours around the middle. The construction and burn were good and it lasted around 30-40 minutes. I won't be buying this one again.

These cigars offer excellent value for money, and I thoroughly enjoyed them and will buy more in future as an everyday smoke. The flavours are strong but not too overpowering for a cigar newbie like myself. I'm looking forward to trying the Senoritas Brazil too, but I liked these a lot and will be ordering many more in future. I think they're perfect for someone starting out on a budget.

A pleasant surprise full of flavour and slow burning for a cigar of this size.I was recently not very happy with the Honduran version but taste is obviously subjective and I prefer Nicaraguan tobacco.At the price these are a good buy.
