The Bandolero Colosales Blend
The Bandolero Colosales features a velvety Ecuadorian wrapper over a Peruvian binder and a carefully selected combination of Dominican, Brazilian, and Peruvian filler tobaccos. This blend brings together tobaccos from several origins in a cigar rolled in Costa Rica.
The cigars also undergo a proprietary cedar-aging process in Madrid, Spain, reportedly lasting one to two years. This extended aging process is intended to help develop and balance the blend’s complexity.
The binder and filler details are especially important for shoppers who want to understand what distinguishes the Colosales from other Ecuadorian-wrapped cigars.
A Classic 6.0" x 54 Toro
Each Bandolero Colosales cigar measures 6 inches long with a 54 ring gauge. Its Toro format provides a substantial smoking experience while maintaining familiar proportions for enthusiasts who enjoy larger-ring-gauge cigars.
The set is more than a cigar sampler: it combines five matching cigars with a dedicated ashtray, making it a coordinated presentation for a cigar collection or special occasion.

Roasted nuts: A warm, toasted dimension.
-
Earth and toast: Savory notes that add depth to the profile.
-
Coffee and cocoa: Roasted flavors that complement the woody character.
-
Gentle pepper and spice: A finishing layer of warmth.
Individual tasting experiences can vary with storage, smoking pace, and personal palate. TRP Cigars categorizes the gift pack as Medium-Full strength.
The Custom Bandolero Ashtray
The gift pack includes a custom-designed ashtray created by Nelson Alfonso. Its coordinated branding and presentation make it a distinctive accessory alongside the five Colosales cigars.
The set is presented in a customized dress box, adding to its appeal for collectors and customers seeking a ready-made premium cigar gift. The exact ashtray dimensions and material are not specified in the product information reviewed.
Brand Story and Aging
Bandolero is part of the Selected Tobacco portfolio associated with Nelson Alfonso, known for his work in premium cigar blending. The brand emphasizes distinctive blends, carefully selected tobaccos, and an approach to aging intended to develop complexity.
The Colosales gift set was introduced as a limited-edition Series C ashtray set. The Premium Cigar Association reported that the release included five 6 x 54 cigars in aluminum tubes, paired with an original single-cigar ashtray designed by Nelson Alfonso. The cigars were rolled in Costa Rica and then sent to Madrid for cedar aging.

Buying, Pairing, and Storage
The Bandolero Colosales & Ashtray Gift Pack may appeal to adult cigar enthusiasts, collectors, and gift buyers looking for a coordinated set of premium cigars and accessories.
TRP Cigars suggests spirit pairings such as bourbon, aged rum, and Highland Scotch, along with coffee options including medium-roast Colombian coffee, cappuccino, and French press coffee. Pairing preferences are subjective, so these are suggestions rather than requirements.
