olotti Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Nice review, what happened to the moustache? I bet these will be great with a couple years on em. Was this sample from a cab or dress box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafa Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I smoke one of this last night ( GKI SEP 04), and it was powerful, fantastic and with a lot of nuances (bouquet).And I believe that the 24 compays of the box will improve with aging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmith Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 El Presidente graciously allowed me time away from my hectic schedule to taste test a cigar. I wasn't aware that I had to make up the time once I had finished it. Thankyou Master. Oily wrappper, dark colorado. Not normaly a huge fan of Bolivars but this cigar had potential. Aroma at cold was of fresh tobacco with of hint of earth/volcanic soil reminiscent of our family's vegetable patch growing up in North Queensland. Cut the cap and found the draw to be excellent. 1/3 Hints of green Sultana grapes and cedar chips. Bright flavours reminding me of a fresh summer fruit salad. light/Medium bodied. Very distinct flavour I have not previously encounterd, enjoyable. 2/3 More medium bodied now. Greater depth of flavours including toasted hazlenuts. I associate depth of flavour with older cigars but at this point the Bolivar is delivering the best of youthfull exhuberance and mature balance. 3/3 Deeper flavours. Medium full. Charred oak/burn't toast. Real substance to this cigar. On the Smith Scale of 1-13 this is a 10.5. Immensely enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
