  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Well today was another new adventure to enjoying another Cigar traded with a BOTL Member. It was an HVC - Black Friday, apparently one of the little know brands coming out of Estrella, Nicaragua. I would guess it size was "48 RG X 6.5".

Construction was good, burn nice and even with no[/] torpedoing or tunneling, nice even ash. Something I would call a medium to strong stick.

There was a question as to what HVC this stick was, but the Black Colored Foot-band was the tell thanks to a Google photo search, and Half - Wheel write-up. FYI

Well today was second another new adventure got to enjoying another Cigar traded with a BOTL Member. The Celo was almost golden brown, so I knew it had some age on it. It was a Cohiba Black, it size was “54RG X 6.0", what I call a real Maduro, from the Dominican Republic.

Construction was great, wrapper was jet black, burn nice nice even ash, with lots of completed flavors . Something I would call a strong stick.

I have a box of these Churchill size I bought a while back that are still being aged, but now I know what the next adventure will be. Something I am looking forward to more of. :cigar:
