Escobar Maduro Gordo

The Bribon Belicoso combines the Colombian cigar tradition with a striking tapered shape and a surprisingly mild flavour profile. This premium cigar is hand-rolled in Barichara and is crafted from characterful Colombian tobaccos. An H-2000 wrapper from Ecuador envelops a Colombian Cubita binder and a filler of Cubita tobaccos from the Montes de María region. The result is a creamy, harmonious smoke with sweet grassy notes, cocoa, chocolate and subtle woody undertones. The Belicoso offers plenty of character for experienced aficionados, whilst remaining pleasantly accessible and also suitable for connoisseurs seeking a milder cigar with a distinctive character.

Bribon Belicoso with a ring gauge of 52

The Belicoso measures around 127 mm and has a ring gauge of 52, corresponding to a diameter of approximately 20.6 mm. A striking feature is the tapered head, which lends the cigar its elegant appearance. When cutting the cigar, the opening can be adjusted to suit individual preference, which also allows for some control over the draw. The generous ring gauge ensures a pleasant smoke volume and allows the mild Cubita tobaccos to come through softly and creamily. This variant is available in a box of 10, which is the size relevant to our shop.

Cocoa, sweet grass and creamy spice

In terms of flavour, the Belicoso starts off particularly gently. Fresh hay and sweet grass form a light base, joined by cocoa and chocolate. As the smoke progresses, creamy vanilla and toasty notes, as well as a hint of wood, emerge. Some tastings also describe a subtle hint of coconut. The flavour profile remains harmonious for the most part and only changes more noticeably towards the end, when drier woody and tannic notes emerge. Despite its distinctive size, the nicotine strength remains decidedly mild.

Handcrafted tobacco enjoyment from Barichara

Bribón was founded with the aim of raising the international profile of premium Colombian tobacco. The cigars are handcrafted in Barichara and are characterised by a mild, creamy style with a distinct character of its own. The Belicoso offers a particularly interesting interpretation of this character thanks to its conical shape. It is ideal for relaxed moments of enjoyment and offers a balanced blend of sweetness, cocoa and gentle spice.
