  • 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.

another first cigar for me. it was gifted by somebody,but bless my heart,i can't remember who...

good looking cigar,hefty feel,smells like coffee


punched and lit.
coffee,light spice and grassy tobacco flavors in the first few puffs


1/4 in with a smooth draw,slow burn and ton's of smoke.
no change in flavors,but it is a little creamy now


a cool burning,creamy smoking cigar. little more spice to go with the coffee and grassy tobacco taste


about halfway with spicy coffee creaminess. the grass has turned to wood.
more of a cedary tobacco taste now. dark flaky ash fell at 2 inches


3/4 and the same great draw and slow burn. a very cool smoke with no bite at all.
medium spice with creamy coffee and light cedar tobacco flavor


last couple of inches with no flavor changes. a nice medium bodied cigar and a very pleasant smoking experience


easy to nub with extra spice and cedar at the end.
draw and burn were easy and slow the entire cigar.
a nice afternoon smoke!


thanks for reading,hope you enjoyed the review!
