Very nice cigar

	Review notes: Veiny with a nice box press, wrapper shade is colorado claro. Pre light draw yields some hints of pepper and light cedar. The draw on this cigar is a touch more open than I like, but not too open. The cigar is full bodied with a buttery creamy taste with a touch of peppered honey on the finish and when exhaled lightly through the nose. Towards the end of the first third, the cigar started to change to a honey and nuts. The burn was perfect! My first draw on the second third was full black cherry and a cedary finish. And this continued for about ¼” of the smoke. The cigar continued with a creamy woodsy flavor with hints of espresso on the finish. More pepper starts to come through along with the cedar. Strong leather comes on at the end with a nice peppered honey finish. Overall, this was a very enjoyable cigar that lasted about 80 minutes.

	Review notes: This cigar is the perfect size, it lasts longer than an hour. It smokes well, producing volumes of smoke, definitely an outdoor cigar. Aroma is a little barnyard, tons of earth, and a touch of nut. Will always be in my top 10.

Smooth, nutty and full flavored

	Review notes: I was impatient and smoked one out of the box as soom as I received them and was somewhat disapointed. Strong and unbalanced. I did not smoke another for about 3-4 weeks and was rewarded by letting them rest in the humi. Great nutty flavor in the first third with hints of chocolate. Very aromatic in the second third with spice. Building to a full flavor with ceder and perfume in the last third. I could not put it down. I am sure they will only improve with a little age. The burn was even and it had a perfect draw. I will always keep a box in my humidor.

	Review notes: I found this cigar to have a strong perfume taste and aroma. Slightly woody, will probably mellow out with a little age. I had a little trouble at first with the draw being tight. Overall though a good smoke. My brother loves this smoke and gives it a much higher rating.

	Review notes: Deep, dark, aromatic,for me one of the best tasting Habanos. First taste is almost like dark bitter chocolate after which the spicyness takes over. They are very well constructed superb value for anyone who likes a stronger flavour and the taste remains to the end -never bitter. Bolivar was my first smoke 40 years ago and although I do have others in my humidor I will always keep them.

	Review notes: Yesterday was a perfect day; 70 F, beautiful blue sky, nice breeze. I decided it was time to get the Bolivar Coronas Extra out the humi. The handmade cigar came in at 5 5/8 length x 44 ring. It had a little give when squeezing slightly along the length, yet still good and firm. I did have a little concern right at the band as I could feel a bit of a knot, telling me there could possibly be a draw problem from a plug. The wrapper had a nice, oily sheen with small crystals shining in the sun. Some tooth present along with some veins on one side. The head had the typical three layer cap, and the foot revealed a good amount of tobacco wrapped underneath the golden-brown wrapper. There was a small crack in the foot most likely from too much moving around in the humi, nothing to cause any problem. After inspection I gathered my tools: H-D Zippo converted to torch with the Z-Plus insert, Swiss Army punch, and a sliver of spanish cedar for lighting. Punching the head (no...not myself in the head) came out perfectly, dead-on center with no cracking. Pre-light draw did prove to be somewhat tight, but not too bad. I got a sweet taste of delicious tobacco. I grabbed the Zippo and toasted the foot and then put fire to it with the sliver of cedar. Actually turned out a little more difficult with the breeze that was blowing, so had to step up on the porch to get'r done. Mandy, my Jack Russell, came out to see what was going on. It took a couple of draws to get the embers fully going. Again, the draw was a bit tight and took some extra long, slow draws to get a good amount of smoke, however when I did, it was amazing! Of course tastes of cedar/wood, earth, leather came forth. But, the flavor of rich coffee with an exceptional cream and dab of sugar filled my mouth as well. Hints of toffee and dark cocoa were present. I also got a faint taste of fruit in there somewhere. Delicious! There was no spiciness to be found and a perfect medium strength. Now, I usually give a cigar a rest of about a minute or so between draws. I found that I just couldn't do it with this one. I was through 1/3 of this thing before I knew it! Once the cigar warmed up, I could feel the knot under the band much better. It only took a few draws however, and the cigar really opened up to a perfect draw for me. Right after I shot the above picture, a small crack appeared right at the edge of where ember met cigar and the ash took on a slight turn. Shortly after the above shot the ash tumbled to the ground, however the burn continued to be perfect. Right after the half-way point, the cigar took on a stronger profile, no longer medium but full. A slight spiciness also appeared while exhaling through the nose, which I rather enjoyed. All the flavors remained the same, just with lots more body to it. Tinker, my overly loving cat, came to keep me some company and of course Mandy was by my side as usual. Towards the end the Boli stayed strong and draws got shorter and shorter to keep the smoke to a minimum. But, it kept the delicious flavors to the finger burning end. What an excellent smoke on such an excellent day! I've definitely got to get more of these to stash away in my humi.

strength and smoothness
