Bolivar Petit Belicoso LE 2009
Ring Gauge: 52
Length is 5” * Attractive: Double Band: with the classic Bolivar and EL 2009 * Composition: Two year old Wrapper, Binder, and Filler Wrapper: * Dark and Oily, very similar to a Maduro color; darker than some recent Dominican Maduro wrappers Firm and somewhat hard to the touch; Foot: * Composed of very dark Brown, almost Black tobacco at the center. It exuded earthiness and spice prior to lighting Beverage enjoyed with this smoke: * Havana Club 3 Year Old Anejo White Rum Pre Light Draw: * While firm to the touch, when cut with my Davidoff Guillotine Cutter, there appeared to be “no” construction or draw concerns. Definitely no blockage Initial Thoughts: * Puffs of thick white smoke, with Full Flavor from the start * Very Rich, Spice, possibly Pepper and Cherry. On the Palate * Definite complexity for the experienced As the complexity and enjoyment of the Rum began impact my mood, I begin to think about the traffic outside my office. An amazing site, but normal for Shanghai: 21 lanes of traffic with vehicles of every size and description, demonstrative of the term Chaos Theory. Finale: * But, alas, I am enjoying the final few puffs. Complexity, Full, Flavor, powerful finish. I long for more. Demonstrates Bolivar is one of the powerhouses of Cuba. Rating: * Definitely not a cigar for a beginner. These Petite Bolivars most definitely will improve with age. The richness, depth and complexity on the Palate and spice, makes me think, what these will be like in 5 years A must try for the mature smoker of full bodied, in your face flavor. 88. |
