Popular Post treberty Posted April 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2020 Sadly only 4 left of my last box, purchased in Havana in 2011. It's not a bazooka, but I've always really enjoyed this Bolivar. I have always thought that it was packed with flavors, smooth yet powerful: everything a good CC should be. Stored in a desktop humidor at 60% rh, so perfect for my taste. 1/3 I get earth and leather notes at the very beginning, but then smell & taste sweet cereal. Milder than what I remembered - haven't smoked one in 3-4 years - so the age could be a factor here. I remember that many GMs that I have smoked were a bit too tight. This one is burning like a champ. 2/3 Starting to feel the kick. Intense notes of tobacco and leather...some black pepper as well. 3/3 I just realized that this cigar may be a perfect match for a good cognac (went for a bourbon tonight). Sure is milder than when it was younger, but still plenty of kick. The taste of sweet cereal is back, but I get gamey notes towards the end - reminds me of what a young Cazadores would taste like 15-20 years ago (could be nostalgia). Still a great smoke. Love the size. Love the flavor profile. Right down my alley. Kicking myself for not opening that bottle of Trijol cognac. Outstanding cigar, imo. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
