Vintage Bolívar Tubos No. 1 (MAR 12 & MAY 13)

The Vintage Bolívar Tubos No. 1, with box dates March 2012 (MAR 12) and May 2013 (MAY 13), is a unique chance to indulge in an aged Cuban icon at the height of its potency. Sealed in protective aluminum tubos, the cigars have aged for over a decade, with the boldest characteristics of the Bolívar brand developing into a smoother, more complex smoke.

Enveloped by the Francisco vitola, the cigars measure 142mm (5.6 inches) long, with a 42 ring gauge, providing a medium-to-full-bodied experience. Aging the cigars has mellowed the initial pungent earth and pepper tastes to yield a nicely balanced blend of cedar, toasted nuts, cocoa, espresso, and leather over mature sweetness in the background.

Vintage Cuban cigars such as these mature into a creamy texture, a cleaner finish, and increased aromatic sophistication. The Vintage Bolívar Tubos No. 1 (MAR 12 & MAY 13) is a collector’s treasure—refined, rare, and rewarding for your personal humidor or gift to another aficionado.
