  • 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.

Cigar: 601 Red Robusto (5 x 50)

Cost: Don't remember

Drink: Coca-Cola (the best cola)

Appearance: This has a Habano wrapper on it. The wrapper was silky. The appearance gets a 9/10 .

Taste of the cigar: This cigar is peppery with some sweetness to it. I also picked up a slight touch of cocoa.

Construction: Held an average ash. The draw was a little loose, but I find this with the entire 601 line. I don't mind this. The cigar required no touchups even with heavy winds.

Strength: This was a medium-full cigar.

Summary: This cigar was decent. I found it kind of one-dimensional. I prefer the 601 Blue. I give it a 7.9/10.

Nice review. The 601 Red is always on my rotation and you can buy them dirt cheap on Cigar Bid. IMO, this is a great "Good Morning" smoke.
