Rhinoww Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 I will admit it. I do enjoy Bolivars. My first box of cc from FOH was a box of PSP Boli PC. I still have a few left and will likely be going in for a few boxes the next time I can get some more PSP. I have some BBF from 24:24 acclimating right now. They smell amazing oh, love the Boli RC as well. I’m two deep there mostly w an eye to get a few years on most of these. lotta love for the Boli in my Coolidor. but in the minuto category I’m a huge fan of the Party Shorts. Have a few boxes resting in addition to one in rotation. Also have RA and San Cristobal minutos in rotation. Not sure I really need a fourth of this size in rotation particularly since I also have a few PC. WOndering how many of you have the Boli CJ in regular rotation. missed the 24:24 deal today, but wondering for the future where this stick should go on my list of “priorities”.
Dave O))) Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 BJC always in my rotation. A reliable flavour filled treat and a must have if you enjoy a fuller profile. 1
MigsG Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 I find myself reaching for BCJs during fall and winter when it's colder.
slowsmoke Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 If you love bolivar, you definitely need some BCJ in your life. They fit right in with RASCC and Principes.
Mikeltee Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 Y'all are making me jealous that I didn't hit the add to cart button when I had the chance. As El Prez says... there will always be another box. To those of you quick on the draw you got one heck of a deal. I'd love to try them sooner than later as BPCs are my favorite atm because of their richness. If these are richer, I will be blown away by them. The 45min vitolas suit my life much better having 4 kids and a 45min drive to work every day. My wife hates it when I burn a churchill on the weekends. I like the big dogs much better as I feel I get a much better draw from them but I usually end up wasting more than I would like.
Bucky McSwensen Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 You love bolivar. You love the size. I think you know the answer. Cant get enough of these myself
NSXCIGAR Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 I've always said when BCJ are on they might be the best Minutos format. Problem is they're rarely on. BCJ is the only Boli that really has that wonderful classic raisin/dried fruit tangy flavor anymore. When properly coupled with the earthiness and toasted tobacco they should have it's a wonderful blend and a fantastic cigar. They've just had an awful time with the balance of this blend for a very long time. I've probably had one box out of 10 that does it right. I was given a half box of singles I'm smoking from now that have it. Don't know the codes but they're from the last three years. All 93-94 pointers for me. And BCJ isn't a cigar where you get one or two in a box that are on. It seems that it's the whole box or nothing. So I've tended to avoid them over the years. I am much more comfortable with El Principe as my go-to Minutos. 3
Tstew75 Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 I think these are the best of the shorties. Maybe only HUPC can rival them for complexity, IMO.

I have been going through a box of MSU 2018 , and each one has been great. Great flavor and construction. I need to pick up another box. I’d like to try a BBF , how do they compare to the CJ flavor wise?

BBF is all leather and dark coffee. Guinness is how Rob describes them. I don't like them. BCJ should be much more complex. Earth, toasted tobacco and dried fruit tanginess. When blended right the balance is sublime. The BRC is different as well. So is the BPC. And the Tubos 2 & 3 are different as well. Same with Libertadores. I don't think any Boli shares a blend.

RDB Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 I love Boli PC but for some reason never buy or smoke the CJ. I guess I don’t feel the lack!
garbandz Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Wondering how many of you have the Boli CJ in regular rotation. ? me too.... especially in cold weather.
