What are the Bolívar Emarati Edición Regional dimensions and ring gauge?

The Bolívar Emarati Edición Regional Emiratos Arabes Unidos measures 5.5 inches (140mm) in length with a 54 ring gauge, classifying it as a Robusto Extra or Edmundo format. This substantial vitola was specifically selected for the UAE market release in 2015, offering a longer smoking duration than standard Robustos while maintaining the brand's characteristic full-bodied profile.

How does the Bolívar Emarati compare to regular production Bolívar cigars?

The Emarati distinguishes itself through its exclusive 54-ring gauge format unavailable in standard Bolívar lines, plus two years of additional aging before its 2015 release. While sharing the brand's signature earthy, spicy core with notes of leather and cedar, the Emarati presents a more refined delivery due to its Regional Edition status and extended maturation, commanding a premium over regular production Bolívar Royal Coronas or Belicosos Finos.

What is the smoking time and ideal aging potential for the Bolívar Emarati?

Expect 75-90 minutes of smoking time from the Emarati's 54-ring gauge and 140mm length. As a 2015 Regional Edition with inherent aging at release, these cigars demonstrate continued evolution through 2025 and beyond. The blend responds well to humidor storage of 5-10 years, developing deeper cocoa and dried fruit notes while tempering initial pepper intensity. Limited production of 2,000 numbered boxes enhances collectibility.
