Curivari: Buenaventura Pralines P554 Cigars
Product Number: 007-846-0023
Defined by old-school Cuban style, Curivari's Buenaventura literally means "good fortune" in Spanish and hearkens back to pre-embargo Cuban cigars with their clean-lined bands, simple font, and elegant color palette. Capturing the iconic Cuban flavor profile, the original Buenaventura line features Cuban-seed Criollo and Corojo tobaccos and are rolled using only the traditional Cuban method, all finished with a Cuban triple cap. The Buenaventura Pralines maintain all of that but add to it a maduro Mexican San Andrés wrapper, adding notes of nuts and bread to a base of chocolate, spice, leather, cedar, and sweetness, presented here in the 54 ring gauge P552 vitola.

poor man's Padron 1926 #1

will listen. I don't think I've ever had a bad one, taste-wise or construction-wise.
these Buenaventura Pralines are one of the Curivari blends that has popped up during the last few years where I haven't been paying very close attention nor smoking that much. the original Buenaventura was one of my first Curivaris and is still one of my favorites, both for the flavor (sour cream and cherries, sorta) and the great box press construction.
I smoked my first of these new Pralines today. they have the same "guts" as the original BV's, with a Mexican San Andres' wrapper replacing the Rosado from the original BV. the sour cream and cherries flavor is still quietly there, but the Mexican wrapper adds something like good coffee, (darker) chocolate and a raisin sweetness that dominates (in a good way) the subtle sweetness of the filler tobaccos. these are DAMN good. mouthwatering, even.
burn wasn't great, but I chalk that up to needing a little more time in the humidor seeing as I only got these a few days ago.
with these being fairly large length/ring size and with the flavor profile, they seem like (and I mean this as a compliment,) a poor man's Padron 1926 #1, which are some of the most luxurious cigars you could ever hope to smoke. and I just ordered some of the largest vitola (6.75 x 52) of these Pralines to really give me the Padron vibe.
Curivari really found a great marriage with the original blend with these Mexican San Andres wrappers....Read More
