Decided to go with our discontinued friend here for the Bolivar weekend review, may he rest in peace.?

1st third: Draw and burn are perfect! Complex smooth flavors of forest floor, Cuban twang, baking chocolate, a touch of leather and a floral note interplay beautifully and incredibly balanced. Great start!

2nd third: Coffee enters the fray with much of the same, however, the intensity has ratcheted up a bit.

Final third: A bit of black pepper on the palette comes and goes with all the original flavors. Draw and burn remain near flawless with 1 tiny touch up that probably wasn't really necessary.

A fantastic cigar! What a shame it has been discontinued. An incredible display of everything Bolivar with earthy, malty flavors in a savory profile delivered with elegance and finesse. I would peg this at a 95 currently and don't see how it could get much better. Whomever made the decision to pull the plug on what I consider the best Bolivar had to offer should be ashamed of themselves.

If not my favorite Bolivar, this is top 3 for Boli experiences I've had. Good review. I will try not to smoke through what I have left too quickly. Maybe they'll re-release one as an ER someday.

Just shy of 2 hours. It was a slow burner plus I took my time with it.
