古巴的玻利瓦尔金牌又回来了，这一次它比以前的版本更粗，也更时尚。3月1日晚上，这款被称为“玻利瓦尔新金牌”的雪茄在哈瓦那雪茄节上亮相，展示活动在拉吉托展厅举行，这个大厅经常用来做新产品发布。

2007年，已经停产的玻利瓦尔金牌曾经重新生产过一版，也是作为哈瓦那之家专供版本。那年的尺寸和第一版相同，42环径，6.5英寸。包裹在一个标志性的金箔套筒里。

今年发布的玻利瓦尔新金牌更粗，48环径，长度还是6.5英寸。金箔也做了升级。新的金色包装上浮雕着“玻利瓦尔”的字样。

玻利瓦尔新金牌是每盒10支包装，还不知道零售价，也不知道什么时候可以上市。哈瓦那之家门店有部分股权归属于古巴政府，传统上只销售古巴雪茄，根据哈伯纳斯公司的介绍，目前全世界有哈瓦那之家专卖店157个。

The Cuban Bolivar Gold Medal is back, but this time it’s a little thicker and a little snazzier than previous releases. Called the Bolivar New Gold Medal, the cigar is intended exclusively for La Casa del Habano franchise shops. The Bolivar got its preview party on Wednesday night during the Habanos Festival at El Laguito Protocol Hall, a venue often used to feature new products.

This is not the Bolivar Gold Medal’s first comeback. In 2007, the previously discontinued cigar was resurrected as a Casa del Habano exclusive as well. Like the original, it came wrapped in a signature sleeve of gold foil and was the same size as the first release at 6 1/2 inches by 42 ring gauge. The Bolivar New Gold Medal announced this week is the same length, but thicker at 48 ring gauge. The signature gold foil has also been updated. Whereas the previous foil was sheer gold, the new gold wrapping is embossed with the word “Bolivar” appearing in a repeating pattern. 

The Bolivar New Gold Medal comes in 10-count boxes, though there’s no indication as to when the cigars will start reaching the Casa del Habano shops or what they’ll cost. Partially owned by the Cuban government, the franchise shops have traditionally sold only Cuban cigars. According to Habanos, there are currently 157 Casas around the world.
