Storage Instructions
For Bolivar Coronas Junior (25) store the cigars in a well maintained humidor set between 65 and 68 percent relative humidity and at a temperature of 65 to 70 ºF (18 to 21 ºC). This cigar benefits from steady conditions because it typically shows a slightly oily wrapper and a robust flavor profile that responds to stable humidity. Keep the box inside a Spanish cedar lined humidor when possible to promote even aging and to preserve the wrapper oils. Avoid direct sunlight and rapid temperature or humidity swings. Use a calibrated hygrometer and check the humidor regularly. For short trips a quality travel humidor or a sealed plastic bag with a two way humidification pack will keep the cigars safe for a few days. If the cigars arrive factory sealed in cellophane you may leave that wrap on while they acclimate, but for long term storage place the cigars unwrapped in the box or on cedar shelves so they can breathe.
Care Tips
Handle Bolivar Coronas Junior (25) with clean dry hands and avoid rubbing the wrapper as oils from your fingers can mar the leaf. Pick up a cigar near the band or the middle to reduce pressure on the cap and the foot. If you plan to smoke soon allow newly purchased cigars to rest in your humidor for at least 7 to 14 days to acclimate. For a more pronounced smoothing of edges consider aging the cigars for 1 to 5 years according to your taste, as the strength and complexity will mellow and develop over time. Keep the cigars in their original cedar box when possible for protection and consistent humidity. Inspect the collection periodically for signs of mold or plume. Powdery white crystals that wipe away with a light touch are usually plume and a sign of proper aging. Fuzzy green or blue growth that stains the wrapper is mold and should be isolated and addressed immediately. When you are ready to smoke, cut with a sharp cutter and toast the foot gently to preserve wrapper integrity and to ensure an even burn for the full-bodied character this cigar is known for.
Reviews and Ratings
There are few if any formal reviews from major magazines that focus exclusively on the Bolivar Coronas Junior 25 box edition. Publications such as Cigar Aficionado and Halfwheel have long covered the Bolivar brand and its hallmark vitolas, and boutique reviewers and long term aficionados often cite the line for its bold and uncompromising profile. General feedback from collectors and retailers points to strong construction, a consistent draw, and the classic Bolivar flavor set that leans toward earthy notes, black pepper, leather and a deep tobacco core. Fans of the brand tend to rate Bolivar offerings highly when they want full strength and classic Cuban intensity.
History and Heritage
Bolivar is one of the most storied Cuban marques and was created in the early twentieth century, taking its name from the Latin American liberator Simón Bolívar. The brand earned its reputation by offering robust, full bodied blends crafted from rich Cuban leaf, and it remains prized for strength and depth of flavor. The Coronas Junior presents a classic corona format that showcases the brand character in a relatively short smoke, making it a good choice for those who want the trademark Bolivar intensity without a very long session. Boxes of 25 are a traditional presentation that appeals to collectors and clubs, and the cigars are typically hand made by experienced torcedores using time honored Havana techniques.
Tasting Notes
The BOLIVAR CORONAS JUNIOR (25) is a confidently full‑bodied petit corona that delivers the classic Bolivar intensity in a compact format. Expect an earthy foundation of rich, damp tobacco and toasted cedar, overlaid with bold black pepper and leathery notes that give way to dark cocoa and espresso on the midpalate. Accents of roasted nuts and a subtle molasses sweetness emerge as the smoke unfolds, while aromas of toasted oak and warm spice create an inviting, mouth‑filling bouquet. A long, savory finish lingers with peppery spice and bittersweet chocolate, a sophisticated, complex smoke suited to seasoned aficionados.
Pairing Suggestions
Aged Caribbean rum (10–12 years), its caramelized sugar, oak and tropical fruit notes mirror the cigar’s molasses and cedar, softening the pepper while amplifying the sweet spice. Intensely brewed espresso or a ristretto, the concentrated coffee complements the BOLIVAR CORONAS JUNIOR (25)’s dark cocoa and espresso tones and refreshes the palate between draws. 70–75% dark chocolate or a small square of bittersweet chocolate, the cocoa echo enhances the cigar’s chocolatey backbone and balances the savory leather and spice for a refined finish.
