Bolivar Corona Extra PMR-MAR-05 (50 cab)

Bolivar Corona Extra

5 6/16inch 44 ring

Pre-Light impressions: Beautiful reddish brown wrapper. Silky smooth to the touch with very fine veins. The cigar was slightly oily with a small amount of tooth. The aroma out of the box is slightly spicy and earthy. The cigar was firm and quite heavy for it's size.

Smoke impressions: Right out of the gate this cigar hits you with a mouthful of pepper spice, leather and copius amounts of cedar. The spice on the palette subsides around the midway point and turns to a smooth coffee flavor. More spice in the last third but the cigar never turns harsh. There was a very rich earthy quality much like the BBF.

Draw/Burn: Firm for the first inch. This cigar was packed with tobacco. Luckily the firm draw only lasted for about half an inch. Once the cigar opened up the draw was perfect. This is the third cigar from the cabinet and all have drawn similarly. The burn was slow and even the entire way except for a slight runner in the last three inches.

Finish: Medium finish with a clean bright tobacco taste. Left the pallete fairly clean.

Rating: 89 out of 100. While smoking great now there is no doubt these are going to be excellent in a few years. I am hoping for more power so I'll check again in a year.
