Greenhorn2 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 First ever Boli PC ever out of a five pack. No dates or codes. I can tell it is young and needs more time to develop but very impressed with this one so far. Liking it! 4

I always try to keep a few on hand. Never seen them in a five pack anywhere, only as singles. I would love to get them in a five pack to save a few bucks. Mine have all been 2019 or newer and I think they taste just fine young Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

I didn't complain. Lol.

Just a great vitola in every regard The Royal Coronas are very nice too Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Yeah, I understand. I never taste the different foods and spices others mention in their reviews either, and I have been smoking Cigars for 15 years. I am a 30 year cigarette smoker though, so that doesn't help my pallet anySent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 1

Also have a few Royals on the way.

Stocking up on cigars because they are going to be my substitute for cigarettes before long. Gotta quit the dang things before they kill me! Lol 1

I have severe asthma so smoking is pretty stupid, plus I'm told everything tastes a lot better after you quit smoking. I'm cutting down to quit soonSent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Just wish I could run across some ages boxes. Everything I'm getting in is 2020 boxes but I'm not complaining because it's such a good year. Figure they should age well. 1

Unfortunately aged Cubans are very expensive. Have one bbf from 2019 set aside to age hopefully.Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 1
JohnS Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 Bolivar Petit Coronas with a little age on them (think two or three years) are quite nice. In regards to aging, you'll get there when you stock up and slowly go through your inventory. Before you know it you will have aged stock because it will take time to come around to smoking your cigars purchased in the immediate past. 1

Just give them a few months in your humidor to acclimate after travel and try one. They age well, but also smoke great young. 3
Meklown Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 Had my first ever BPC during 2019 FOH blind tasting comp. Obviously guessed wrong but ended up buying a few boxes since. 1

I'll try them out and if they are better than the PC's, I will probably have to get a box.
jonnyfromiranny Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 I just received the BBFs. They are resting, but I'm excited to try one. I haven't tried any Bolivars, but I imagine I'll try the BRC's next, mostly because I like that vitola more.

I highly recommend it for people who doesn’t want to give up nicotine but want to be a little healthier. 2

Broke 3 vape thing-a-ma-jiggies first week. Couldn't afford that! So now when I get a chance I just grab a stogie and throw the coffin nails to the side.

I know it’s not the same feeling with vape and cigarettes. It is a transition period to go from cigs to vape but if you hang in there it’s so worth it. When I made the transition it was hard but now cigs really disgust me. All I want is my vape. I also feel better in my lungs and mouth. I don’t have that disgusting feeling anymore.

I'm so ready too myself but being in a supervisory role working for a cigarette manufacturer makes it kinda hard. It's the only thing that keeps me from choking the life out of idiots! Lol 1
djrey Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 Everytime I smoke a PC I get quite annoyed at how few are left. It is one of the best vitolas out there. Affordable, packed with flavor and generally over an hour of enjoyment. Yet production has been decimated. 4
