All Cigars

Bolivar Petit Coronas

The Cigar:

Simon Bolivar was one of the great historic figures of the 19th Century who liberated much of South America from Spanish rule.

The Bolivar brand was created in 1902 and is based today in the Partagas factory which is in the heart of Havana. 

It is perhaps not surprising that a Habano named after such a powerful figure is blended to match his might. Bolivar is among the strongest, most full bodied of all Habanos. It boasts an unrivalled richness of flavour in its blend of Vuelta Abajo zone filler and binder tobacco that makes it one of the most sought-after marques amongst experienced smokers.

Bolivar Tubos No.2

The Cigar:

This cigar is the same format as Bolivar Petit Coronas except that this particular cigar is presented in a different way; it comes with a cedar wrap inside an aluminum tube. Furthermore, the quality of the filler is inferior to that of the Bolivar Petit Coronas.

Flavour: Full

Ring Gauge: 42
Vitola: Mareva

The Cigar:

The unique ‘extra fermentation’ that is conducted on the Seco and Legero of all Cohibas lasts for eighteen months and is conducted at the factory in cedar barrels. This extra age creates a unique taste. The famous Cohiba flavour is most often described as ‘Grassy’, although others have noticed tones of vanilla, cocoa and coffee. It is often noted how this extra fermentation makes the taste ‘smoother’ and more refined.

Min Ron NEE, in his book An Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Post-Revolution Havana Cigars says of the Siglo range “Mild, creamy sweetness, medium bean flavour, subtle ‘Cohiba’ Grassy taste, mild floral and herbal flavours.”.

The American publication Cigar Aficionado scored this cigar an impressive 93 out of 100 in a recent review, saying “Oily, firm and well made, with a fine draw and an even burn. The cigar is spicy and rich, with complex flavours of dark chocolate, coffee and leather. A full bodied masterpiece”

Montecristo No.4

The Cigar:

Simply the most popular individual handmade cigar in the world. Its rich, tangy, medium to full flavour acts as the benchmark for most smokers embarking on the journey to find their preferred Habano. Many return to it.

Montecristo Petit Tubos

The Cigar:

The ubiquitous No.4 in a cedarlined, aluminium tube first produced specially for Hunters & Frankau in the mid 1980s

Montecristo Tubos

The Cigar:

This elegantly presented extra length Corona, cedar-wrapped in an aluminium tube, was the first new vitola to be added to Montecristo’s original range in the late 1950s. Eminently portable.

Por Larranaga Petit Corona

The single standard bearer for Por Larrañaga’s regular range in the UK. It carries the brand’s traditional colours well with its creamy, light to medium flavour.

The Cigar

A light, elegant Petit Corona with a taste that makes it an ideal way to start the day.

Sancho Panza Non Plus

There is no more whimsical name given to a Petit Corona. Probably an abbreviation for Non Plus Ultra meaning ‘there’s none better’. Who are we to argue?
