La Casa del Habanos, has just reintroduced the Bolivar Gold Medal in packs of ten. The Lonsdale-sized smoke, with a 42 ring (6 1/2" x 42),  hasn't been made since the 1980s. We haven't smoked one of the new ones as of yet, but the packaging alone, which was copied exactly down to the bright gold foil inset, is to die for. All are made in the Partagas factory. As far as we know only 1,000 boxes were made.

The re-release of the 2004 Regional Edition, this is a very strong smoke with predominantly earthy tones and characteristics.
