2008 Bolivar Short Bolivar RE Asia Pacific



There is some great bright honey sweetness with a graham quality; very rich smoke..... But it's completely overshadowed by notes of bitter grass, hay, anise, and an almost "over-Oaked" note that cuts the finish short and chalky with lingering bitterness. Burns hot as well.

It's going on a 6 year old cigar..... If it doesn't have it sorted out now....

I'll revisit soon too make sure it's not a dud.

Can you give us a short review on that? I've never had one and i think i have one coming
Well not sure this is the proper place to post a review but I'll answer your question. I found this one started off like most of the Lost City I've smoked. Fairly light with a dry cinnamon retrohale light drift wood flavor. At the half way point this cigar blows open with power. The cinnamon is there throughout but thick creamy smoke prevails. Deep dark cherry flavor with a deep Cedar wood flavor. Ends with a punch in the mouth with all those flavors and long lasting dark cherry and chocolate. Thick thick creamy smoke.
I have two of these resting for when my second born pops out. Your review made my mouth water...cmon kid!!!
