mash Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Would anybody recommend any of the Bolivar tubos? (i.e. No.1, No.2, No.3) Not based on my box of '05 No. 1's. I find them pretty bland, especially for a Boli.
kiwiman911 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 I got some 3's back in feb when I was there with my girlfriend, my GF ended up smoking them all she just loved em. she is a cigarette smoker but likes to go the cigar route also. I emember her telling me it was very nice and it was but was quite punchy(pepper). hope it helps
Cohiba Stevie Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 The number 3s are lip smackers! Real full bodied little cigars with plenty of thick creamy smoke. Leather and spice through and through.
dangolf18 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Posted November 4, 2012 Thanks for suggestions. My source currently has all three in stock with these box codes. Bolivar Tubos No.3 TEB SEP07 Bolivar Tubos No.2 TEB SEP07 Bolivar Tubos No.1 OSU SEP01 I might just go with the No.1 because after all, they have 11 years of age on them. If not, will go with the No.3.
Lotusguy Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 I had a couple of 10+ years old Boli 1 tubos in Spain and they were way over the hill in terms of flavor - not sure if it was due to storage or not. I'd go with a #3 (never had a #2, though).
dangolf18 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Posted November 4, 2012 Good to know. I might go with the Bolivar No.3 then. Thanks for the tip!
Ryan Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 I have a box of '01 No. 2 that I smoke sparingly. A flavour I remember I'd describe as hot fresh bread. Good draw on them all so far. I smoked in Spain in July with a friend from Madrid who has been smoking cigars for at least 40 years. He was very impressed. I love them. I've always enjoyed Bolivar tubos.
dan5974 Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 I remember reading somewhere that these were made lesser quality tobacco than the regular Bolivar line.I don't know if thats true,but I've tried a few of all of them and I can tell you that the #2 is clearly inferior to the PC.Never been forunate enough to try a Corona to compare to the #1.The best of the tubos IMO is the #3.
