Bolivar B-2 2010 Canadian Regional Edition Review
After surveying Canadian consumers, Habanos rolled a new Regional Edition cigar called Bolivar B-2 for Canada. B-2 is Pyramids 52 x 156 (6.1″) and comes in a box of 25 and only 1000 boxes were produced. Pirce is around $30. This is the second time Canada gets a Bolivar regional edition and the first time it was called Bolivar Simones (robusto) which I reviewed couple of years back. Click here to see the review.
This cigar is same size as Montecristo #2 which means its a little bit longer than Belicoso Fino but the same format. Apparently these cigars are rolled at Vuelta Abajo in Pinar del Rio from high quality tobacco and despite being young, the cigar shows great quality and texture. It reminded me of Belicoso Fino and Royal Corona with lots of chocolate, coffee, espresso and bit of pepper which made it a really enjoyable cigar. Go ahead and try one, I think this time they did a great job for Canada and its not just another regional edition.

I’m seeing a Simones Canadian Regional Edition in a couple of the Toronto stores websites. (Thomas Hinds and Smokin’ Cigar) I’m going to try to pick up one or two this weekend.
Have you tried that one?
Oops, never mind! I just saw your link to the Simones Canadian Regional Edition.
As luck would have it, I just found some of the B-2 2010 at a local B&M and bought one. Sounds like I’m in for a treat as these would have at least a year on them, and I will likely not smoke it for a few more months. Almost thinking I should go back and get some more, as they had only few in an open box left.
