Bolivar Gold Medal - 10 cigars

Product Review (submitted on November 30, 2015):

I'm now smoking the last of these from 2012 so its aged 3.5 years from when I bought it.

When new I wasn't a fan. A bit raw with ammonia.

Now I'm impressed.

1st few draws are dominated by mocha and chocolate. This quickly disappeared to go straight to white pepper. Getting towards 1/3 in and the chocolate returned.

Halfway and it has spiced up with more pepper. All on the tongue initially with the lips spared. There's a hint of leather

Getting to the last third and a bit of ammonia is present but mainly spice with heat building in the mouth and on the lips.

No canoeing, very consistent burning. Overall a good cigar with nice smoke
