Bolivar Petit Corona

[MrQ]

I love these on lunch break, makes the rest of the day go a little better.

[pittesq]

As much as I love the line, I never got to try this particular size. Received some this week in a trade! Review to follow

[kornazoo]

I am finishing up a box of 97's, and I am kicking myself for not getting more...

One of my personal favorites, and everyone that I shared them with enjoyed them as well.

[Smokiethebear]

Hard to go wrong with a BPC or just about any other Boli for that matter. A staple in my humi.

I pulled the first one from my recently purchased box of '97s. With a glass of tawny port I was contented.

BPCs are fantastic. Inexpensive, consistently good quality, and loaded with flavor for a short smoke.

[dogbreath]

Like 'em too, and like to use a punch on vitolas.

[Smokin Bulldog]

Great review, I really must try these!

[Well Armed]

These are the bomb diggy. Young or old. But the oldies taste much different I think. More refined. But I would take either or under ANY circumstance.

[Havana Joe]

Thanks for the review....I am also a fan of the Boli PCs. For me, they are a descent "goto" smoke...

Never really did much for me. I have the better part of a Cab of them that wont be touched for another 5 years. I see the potential, there are just so many other cigars that I enjoy it would be an injustice to myself to smoke ones I really dont like. Im keeping the faith though. The ones I have are from '04 and are some of the strongest, most earthy barnyard smellin' mofos I have ever took a whiff of. Beautiful too.

[dogbreath]

Nice smoke. Have a few boxes of the PCs and JRs from Lisa that are resting.

Thanks for the review.

On to my second box of 97's.......I wish I had Tampa's willpower!

Man, I got to get more of these.....

» wood and mixed nuts. Dryish and stayed this way throughout.

» About a third of

» At about mid point the power really kicked in, and I believe if

I am really glad i make a cab of 50 for this PC. :-D

I tried a few loose sticks and really like the taste to go ahead to purchase a box of it

But would like to enquire, any one had a tasting notes hinting saltiness? It was the case for those few sticks i tried. And it quite apparent in the first few puffs. which goes away in a while. wierd... i think i gotta get my taste bud examined..

[Colt45]

I tried my second of these today. It started out relatively the same as my first,

creamy, with the sweet and sour spice, but as it progressed, it became more

earthy with a core of robust tobacco. It was not "dry" like the first.

The power on the other hand, is still there - not to be rushed! Really enjoyable,

and while I have a few more, I lament that I didn't buy more to put away.

[Spud2]

Just order a box of 97's, have smoked relatively young ones up till now.

[cigarnv]

Nice review. The 05's are great cigars that IMO will be outstanding with 4-6 years of age. The best I have seen in the last 5 years!!

[Mel]

I had another tight one the other night and I was not pleased normally these are great for me but have had a couple out of this new cab that were way to tight.:-| I'm not giving up my love or this cigar but have noticed a few flaws. Sort or reminds me of how after the honeymoon and a few years you notice some less than perfect things about the spouse.;-)
