Bolivar Tubos No.2 Tubos

Description

The Bolívar Tubos No. 2 is a refined yet potent expression of the Bolívar brand, known for its deep flavour and Cuban heritage. This petit corona-sized cigar comes individually housed in an aluminium tube (cedar-lined) for freshness, presentation and portability.

Hand-made in Cuba, the cigar is crafted using long-filler, binder and wrapper tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo region, and rolled in the Partagás factory.

Flavor Profile & Smoking Experience

Expect a robust and flavour-rich smoking experience:

• Finish: Lingering strength with bold flavour and complexity — the petit size packs power in a shorter experience.

Why Choose the Tubos No. 2

• Offers the prestigious Bolívar brand flavour profile — known among Cuban cigars for strength, richness and intensity.

• Presentation: the aluminium tube gives enhanced protection, makes it portable and gift-worthy.

• Balanced for a shorter session: the petit corona size means you don’t need a long time commitment but still get a full-bodied Cuban experience.

• Ideal for aficionados who want a powerful smoke in a crisp format.

Serving & Storage Tips

• Store the cigar in your humidor at ~65-70% relative humidity and ~18-21 °C for optimal wrapper health and integrity.

• Because of the smaller ring gauge, take slow, controlled draws and avoid rapid puffing to prevent overheating.

• The tube is excellent for travel, but if you’re storing long-term, some smokers remove the cap or place the cigar in the humidor without the cap—tubes can hold excess moisture and risk mould in some cases.

• Pair with a rich espresso, dark rum or full-bodied whisky to match the cigar’s intensity.
