Bolivar 'BELGRAVIA' 2015 UK Habanos Regional Edition
London England, November 10th. Hunters & Frankau launched the latest UK Regional Edition, the Bolivar Belgravia on Tuesday 10th November at a trade only event. Although this cigar was originally showcased earlier this year at Hunters & Frankau’s 225th Anniversary party on 19th June, it is only now that they have been released into the UK market. The Bolivar Belgravia is named after the area where H&F held their 225th Anniversary party on 19th June this year. The brand was also the natural choice as a further commemoration to the Anniversary as in the eastern corner of Belgrave Square, the location where the actual celebrations were held, stands the only statue in the UK of Simon Bolivar, a Venezuelan military and political leader who played an instrumental role in liberating much of South America from Spanish rule. His portrait adorns every box and band of Bolivar cigars as the brand was named after him upon its birth in 1902. Measuring 5¼ inches (130mm) by 55 ring gauge, the Belgravia shares its dimensions with the extremely popular R&J Wide Churchill (VdG Montesco) which is the only cigar of this size currently in the standard Habanos portfolio. Presented in SBN boxes of 10 with the papeleta positioned on the side of the box, the cigars are double banded with the second denoting the fact that it is a UK Regional Edition. The cigars are now available to order.
