mjhpercussioninc Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Can you name it? Have you smoked it? I was really impressed, and I'll post the full title of the cigar in the comments a little later. Cheers! 1
Lotusguy Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 This band doesn't seem to match any official German RE. Looks like a figurado which would mean it's the Bolivar Tesoros, but those have a "Exclusiva 5ta Avenida" second band. Where did you get this?BTW, I smoked three Tesoros so far, two had terrible construction and bitter taste, the third one was just bland.
Boosted Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Looks like a Tesoro but all of mine have 5ta Avenida on band

dominattorney Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Whatever it is, it looks nice. I've yet to sample any regional edition cigars. No one will sell them to me, because of my dishonest face, not to mention profession. 2
Benzopyrene Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 very curious where you got this.....definitely appears to be a banding mistake if its real. Cheers!
topdiesel Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Is it the 109. They have a slightly tapered head.
CigarmanTim Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 That band was on the Colosales which I think was back in 2006. I picked up a few back in the day when I was over there./
dangolf18 Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 The coloring on that Bolivar band looks a bit off.

NSXCIGAR Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 That cigar is definitely flared at the foot. Looks like a figurado. Likely a Partagas Salomones w/ Boli & Germany RE bands. The Boli Tesoro should absolutely have the 5ta Avenida RE bands as they officially announced that for the Tesoro and the LGC Glorias and Intertabac apparently showed the Tesoro sporting the 5ta Avenida bands at a show in Germany.

in0gravity Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 It's a pre-release Bolivar Tesoro. They had the Exclusivo Alemania band before they changed it to Exclusivo 5ta Avenida. Had one myself but was not impressed by it. The one that came out this year is much better in my opinion. regards Lars 3

Charley Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 It's an German RE from 2009. It's a 109 size like the Bushido. I got in on a box split of these back in 2009. They were pretty good (but pricey).

Charley Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 Maybe the camera angles on that photo is causing it to look that way. Here is another photo. No flared foot. I also don't remember them having a flared foot. 2

FGS… The cigar on the picture has a flared foot, no one is saying that a 109 has a flared foot… Now, if you believe the cigar of the OP and the cigar in your picture are the same vitola, the appointment with an optometrist is an urgency… The cigar is a Salomon, is that SO difficult to admit? Can someone tell me why people are systematically discarding this post: 19 hours ago, in0gravity said: It's a pre-release Bolivar Tesoro.
