There’s never been a better time to be a premium cigar connoisseur, in 2018, the industry is vibrant, and healthier than even though there are more restrictions on peoples’ right to enjoy a cigar than ever before. Today, there is a multitude of contemporary cigar-makers willing to experiment with wrappers and filler tobaccos from all regions of the world, and by creating these blends defying conventional manufacturing norms, you have a choice of a wide variety of exciting new flavor profiles that are unlike anything you have experienced before! Just walking through the aisles of your favorite cigar store, can be a daunting, yet exciting experience. Sadly, due to this veritable stogie tsunami, many of the old tried and true classics are now over-looked — one of them being the good old Bolivar Cofradia brand.
Still a favorite with many of the veteran cigar aficionados here at JR Cigar, the Cofradia was an enormously popular smoke when it was first produced in the late 1990’s. First manufactured at the Villazon Factory in Honduras under the watchful eye of master cigar maker Estelo Padron, the brand is now part of the famous General Cigar portfolio, with Padron still playing a big part in production.
Bolivar Cofradia remains a four-line vitola selection that features your choice of either an oily, Oscuro Connecticut Broadleaf, or a medium-brown EMS Ecuador wrapper over a Connecticut Broadleaf binder and aged long-fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua.
Although, not as complex as many of the more innovative sticks saturating the market today, the Bolivar Cofradia is a bold, heady cigar, with the straightforward full-bodied flavors of earth, peppery spice, chocolate, and coffee, that old- school purists have come to expect from a handmade premium cigar. When choosing the top- quality Ecuadorian wrapped variety expect more pronounced flavors of spice and roasted nuts, with no chocolate components in the mix.
Still packaged in the same slide-top aromatic cedar chests of 24, and aged for at least one-full year, the Bolivar Cofradia brand also has the same affordable price that die-hard fans really appreciate.
We highly recommend that you take this timeless cigar line for a test-drive, we think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the fabulous construction and rich Cuban-style taste!

Yes my premium leaf loving pals, just like every one of you, I buy my cigars from JR. For some reason, people are under the impression that I get hordes of stogies for free, but I am indeed a longtime customer, just like the rest of you guys.
Now, much like the rest of you, I love shopping for cigars. While the women of our species can spend skads of hours roaming through malls and shopping in one clothes store after another, (insisting that they can’t find a thing to buy), we cigar lovers will have little problem finding a multitude of goodies to purchase in no time at all. Put me in a big room full of premium-aged sticks – I’ll peruse through the shelves pinching and sniffing along the way – and be assured I’ll hit the register with an eclectic selection of long-filler goodness, from several countries that hover around the equator.
I happen to be fortunate that I live within half an hour from the JR Cigars in Whippany, NJ, and have made it my home away from home since it opened it’s doors in the late 90’s. Like all JR Cigar stores, the place is truly the mecca of aged premium leaf, with thousands upon thousands of square feet of leafy goodness to lose yourself in. While I have visited the store hundreds of times, every single time I walk through those doors I get all jacked up like the proverbial kid in the candy shop – only the treats at JR are a hell of lot sweeter if you ask me.
The rush one gets from going through various brands of cigars is such a high, and completely unexplainable to those who don’t smoke – especially the wife. (Let’s take for instance, a few of my present faves, the Gurkha Colorado, Bolivar Cofradia, La Gloria Cubana Serie N, Frank Llaneza 1961, and the luscious Belinda Black) They’ll never in all their lives understand what floats our boat and there’s no sense in even trying. And we all know how dangerous it can be to enter a cigar shop with too much cash or a plastic card with room to spend. It’s like when they tell you not to go to the grocery store when you’re hungry. And I don’t know about you, but I am ALWAYS hungry for a good smoke.
Then there’s shopping on JR’s relaunched website, which is probably an even worse addiction as you don’t even have to move your fat and lazy culo from your chair, as a plethora of brands and sizes are right there before your finger tips. Just surf and click and the man in brown shows up at your door…and THAT is a major-league high all unto its own! When I order my stoags online, I’m like a puppy waiting for its master to show up, racing to the window every time I hear a car go by the house, and doing everything I can not to pee on the carpet. (Mr. Pavlov would truly have a friggin field day with me.) And when that big brown truck finally pulls into the driveway, you’d better not be in my path as I make a beeline to the door while practically tearing the box from the delivery guy’s hands. And as you well know, tearing open that box is like a kid on Christmas morning who KNOWS he was a good boy and that Santa brought him exactly what he asked for.
Okay, admittedly I have no life and I should seek professional help, but I have a strong suspicion that you are every bit as bad as a tobacco nerd as I am – or as Lew would refer to us as “cigar weenies.” We are lovers of the leaf my people and there’s no denying this love that cannot be explained. So until next week, I bid you long ashes. Smoke ‘em cuz ya got ‘em. Yes, My name is Tommy & I am indeed a Tobacco Nerd.
JR is giving us Tobacco Nerds one last chance to get our hands on the handmade gems of Te-Amo New York before they leave the warehouse forever. And get this…these tasty beauties are going for ONLY A BUCK A CIGAR! That’s right – they’re letting every bundle go out the door for just $24.95. There are limited quantities available SO ACT NOW!
