Bolivar Cofradia is simply one of the best cigars you can buy for the price.
Cofradia contains vintage Nicaraguan and Honduran leaves within it’s filler. Add in a grade A dark Connecticut Broadleaf binder and you know it’s going to be good. Encase everything in an Ecuadorian Sumatran wrapper and the formula is complete! The results are no surprise.
Stogie Guys just say…..”If you’re looking for a bold smoke with heavy earth flavors, give the Bolivar Cofradia a try, especially considering its friendly price.” Leaf Enthusiast scores this Bolivar at 9/10. Their take is worth noting too. “It was very good from end to end…and the price is great. It fits the bill for a medium-to-full bodied cigar with a good amount of complexity for a bargain price tag.”
Cigar Advisor think Cofradia is a winner as well. “Bolivar Cofradia is a solid, well-made, medium strength cigar that offers a satisfying mix of core flavors at a fairer-than-fair price.” Enough said!
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Sumatran
Binder:Connecticut Broadleaf
Filler:Nicaraguan + Honduran

Casa Turrent 1942 Maduro celebrates the year of birth of Alejandro Turrent’s father.
The 1942 Maduro uses a Mexican San Andrés negro Colorado wrapper grown exclusively by the company for this cigar. Completing the blend is a San Andrés criollo binder leaf along with fillers of San Andres Criollo, San Andrés Negro and specially selected Nicaraguan tobacco.
Turrent calls it a medium to full strength cigar that is spicy without being aggressive, offering more complexity that the Serie 1901 line. Developing Palates says the 1942 is one of those good cigars where it manages to deliver layers of rich flavor from the start all the way to the nub.
BEWARE….these great smokes sell out quickly.
Wrapper: Mexican San Andrés Negro Colorado
Binder: Mexican San Andrés Criollo

This edition is a great example of how this brand strives to appeal to diverse taste preferences. While it’s Connecticut sister is mild to mellow in body, this 90 rated stick is robust and full-flavored yet smooth, balanced, and tasty.
