Default NC with Boli PC profile?

A few years ago I was gifted a Boli PC when I received my Bachelor's degree. It was absolutely the best smoking experience I have ever had. I would like to relive the experience when I complete my graduate studies in the fall.

Are there any readily available NCs with the Boli PC profile?

If you like them that much, just buy a box of them. don't settle for a replica or anything that attempts to recreate that same profile.

The thought has crossed my mind many times, but in my line of work (education and soon educational administration), a customs seizure could be career ending.

I try to avoid small-town scandals.

What was the profile you found in the Boli PC?

I seem to remember the stick being a little peppery and possibly citrus like. I definitely picked up cinnamon in the last 1/4. That cinnamon taste has haunted me since. I have not found the cinnamon taste in any other stick unless you count the Heaven I tried with my wife.

I would suggest searching the NC reviews on here with the keyword cinnamon or cinamon (people do misspell). I bet you will get a ton of results.

I got 9 pages of results.

PM me your address.
I'll send you the closest match to a Boli PC that I have found to date.

OMG! He's been here since 2008. I bet he knows already to start sandbagging the house and mailbox before he even thinks of responding with a PM!!

BTW, if he sends you an addy, PM it to me. I also have some sticks that I think are a decent match to the Boli PC!

You are not going to be able to match profiles totally, due to the (extremely) different tobaccos used...

Having said that, the absolute closest I have found to the Boli Profile is the Quesada Espana...

And it's easier to get the Boli PC than that cigar. Lol.

It's tough to match CC profiles because nothing tastes like a CC. Just like nothing but a Dominican puro will taste like a dominican puro.

Try a Tatuaje Brown label Noella. They taste kind of similar to a Boli PC.

Guys, I live in a small town..people have ways of finding out about everything...I think the mailman has something to do with that. Maybe I'm just overly paranoid. <----most likely

I'll have to pick up a Tat and an Oliva O next time I'm in Dallas. Thanks for the suggestions.

As a fellow educator, I felt the same way you did for a very long time. Kept thinking about poor Mike Price (google if necessary)...

I let the paranoia go, and haven't looked back.

Hope this helps, but at least one person understands you.

Finally, I echo everyone else's sentiment... you will not find a fast food hamburger with Kobe beef profile, vintage wine notes under a screw top, or Cuban taste in a non-Cuban cigar.

I do NOT think Cabaiguans taste like Bolivars. Not even close. But, as I am sure you are well aware, there is a lot that goes into individual taste profiles.

There is a Kobe beef hamburger that is served in NYC.

I don't drink, so I can't comment on a screw top wine bottle.

I am not interested in engaging in a Moki/Fredster challenge.

Also, I am sure you could dig up a post on puff.com where I thought a RyJ Casadores was NC... based on the overwhelming power, I still don't like them.

At any rate, you just unlocked the search badge on CA FourSquare. Sleep well tonight, my friend.

Try an Illusione 888. While different, it did have some similarities with nice nutmeg and cocoa overtones on a rich earthy core that turned into black licorice. I had one from 2008 last night and enjoyed it very much. Except for the size, it did remind me of a 2007 Boli corona jr. I had last year.
