(Im warning you now there is swearing in this im sorry but its how i express myself so if your easily offended dont bother reading)
It was shite.
Yet again it was plugged to all hell 3 out of 3 now have been duds im honestly starting to loose faith in these ones.
SOOOO
With that i decided to indulge on something a bit more reliable while i watch al murrays big barrel of fun.
As it was a long show i picked out one of the bolivar gold medals i got for Christmas and luckily the draw on this was fucking perfect.
Now i love bolivar the construction and the tobacco is always tippy top and this is no exception beautifully rolled once you get the gold paper off which is a nice touch in itself never seen a stick packaged like this and its just amazing to look at. The cap was immaculate no imperfections just beautiful to me and maybe im just strange but it was appealing as a hot goth chick covered in tattoos.
The aroma is another point the chocolatey tobacco smell with a hint of spice but on the second you put a flame to the end of it and begin charring i got the most amazing floral honey smell that persisted throughout the stick and that really lifted my mood from the disappointment of the punch.
For a bolivar the first third was imo mild to medium in body with the floral honey taste mixed with a little cedar wood and just a hint of spice all in all very nice very nice indeed and it went well with my bottle of robinsons unicorn which is just a amazing ale in every measure i strongly suggest you get a bottle from your local tesco/asda or buy a 8 pack from the brewer.(will post links in bottom)
The second and third parts im going to do in one as it didnt really change the floral notes are gone and its starting to become a full on bolivar taste that we all know and love a nice earthy woody tobacco taste plenty of spice,pepper,leather and what i would describe as a chilly taste but not blow your head of chilly just a deep strong chilly body taste which lifts all the other flavours and makes them work without overpowering them in any way.
All in all to me its been a fantastic smoke and in the last 2 1/2 inches it started to get a little hot a little harsh a little orky for any W40K fans out there.
But even with that i didnt feel like letting it go so soon so i chopped it up and stuck it in my pipe and finished it off and it was good.
So in the end as i dont rate out of 100 all i can say is buy a single or two and try one if you dont like it ill take whatever you have left off your hards for free.
Photos will be uploaded tomorrow as i have no idea how to use SWMBOs camera.
PS. robinsons link (the old chocolate tom is good too)
