  • 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 time 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.

Construction:

The 100 Anos Robusto is covered in a brown and toothy wrapper. It's a dense cigar and smells wonderful.

The wrapper did have a large vein running the length of the stogie but it didn't pose any burn problems.

The prelight draw had hints of sweet tobacco and a woody flavor.

While the cigar was burning it did get mushy about a half inch behind the cherry. Even still, it never ran hot. It burnt perfectly.






1/3:

It starts off great. Sweet tobacco smacks the palate with a nice spice on the finish. The flavors develop into a nice flavor of wood -- I'd call it "Oak."





2/3:

It remained fairly consistent from the first third to the second third. The same delicious flavor of oak and sweet tobacco. The spice mellows out a bit, but it's still there.



3/3:

God, what a great cigar. The flavors are pretty much the same as before, but the spice is back and in full-force. Even with the spice, the cigar remains mild-medium in strength.



Overall:

I f*cking loved this cigar. The flavors didn't change much but it was delicious. I never wanted the cigar to end. I smoked this to the nub and burnt my fingers.

The flavor profile reminded me of the PSD No. 4 -- but not nearly as strong. If you are looking for a mild-medium bodied cigar with a nice burn, good flavors, yet plenty of spice on the finish -- this is the cigar.
