Bolivar (CUBA)
Corona Gigantes, 7x47

Review by mickd
May 13, 1998

Price: 635.0O US IF FROM CANADA, 300.00 BOX IF FROM SWITZ.

Overall Rating: Did I Like the cigar? It was GREAT!

I love Bolivar, usually I only smoke Corona or Petite Corona...To be Honest I would smoke a Bolivar Bonita before MANY other Corona size cigars. But I went for the big one and I think I am ruined for life. If you can deal with the HUGE(imho) size of a Churchill, this is the size: this is the cigar.
