Vitola: Sublimes (Double Robusto) | Size: 54 ring gauge × 164mm (6½″)
The Bolívar Libertador, an exclusive for La Casa del Habano, is a commanding *Double Robusto*—measuring 164mm with a bold 54 ring gauge. It’s a cigar that doesn’t just ask for time—it demands your full attention. Wrapped in a deeply colored, velvety Colorado wrapper, the presentation is flawless, its rich texture hinting at the depth to come. The cold draw offers vibrant notes of citrus peel, dried fig, and the faintest trace of spice, setting the tone for a vibrant, indulgent journey.
From the first flame, the Libertador reveals its distinctive character. The opening draws are lush and **fruit-forward**—with notes of sweet orange, guava, and hints of stewed apricot—wrapped in a creamy, almost dessert-like smoke. The texture is thick, nearly chewable, with a mouth-coating richness that speaks to impeccable fermentation.
As the cigar moves into the second third, **warm spices** emerge—**cinnamon, nutmeg, and a subtle trace of coriander**—blending seamlessly into the fruit core. The body remains at a measured medium, allowing flavors to evolve gradually without overwhelming the palate. There’s an undeniable elegance in the balance—soft yet structured, bold yet refined.
In the final third, the Libertador deepens its tone. **Toasted wood, light cocoa, and a gentle earthiness** round out the profile, with a clean, almost zesty finish that lingers on the tongue. A restrained pepper note adds depth to the retrohale, while the signature creamy smoke endures to the last draw, rich and satisfying.
Despite its generous proportions, the Libertador maintains composure from start to finish. It’s not a cigar to be rushed—**an hour or more of unhurried pleasure**, best enjoyed when the world slows down and the rhythm of Havana is allowed to rise to the surface.
Released in limited quantities exclusively through La Casa del Habano locations, this cigar is not only rare in distribution but unique in profile. Presented in elegant boxes of ten, it offers both a collector’s value and an unforgettable smoking experience.
Pair with a **mature Cuban añejo rum** or a **dessert wine with citrus notes**, and let the Libertador remind you that some cigars are not merely smoked—they’re remembered.
