  • 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.

First review gimme some feedback on what everyone thinks.


Cain Maduro Robusto

A very dark cigar that looks of an aged leather. The leaf had small veins with nothing out of place. The aroma was woody with hints of dark roast chocolate coffee.

Pre-light: The draw was very smooth and flavorful. The taste was of cedar with a sweet flavor left on the lips.

Lighting this cigar was very easy. The first taste was a very peppery, woody flavor that quickly mellowed out after the first quarter of an inch. The flavor was a full body spicy coffee. The flavor stayed consistent throughout the middle of the cigar. Nearing the end a hint of sweet chocolate started appearing.

The cigar produced lots of white smoke that got creamier as the stick progressed. While smoking I had four people comment on how nice the cigar smelled. The ash was somewhat flakey but held on for a considerably amount of time.

This cigar will definitely be going in my humidor when I get home. 8.5/10










Finally hanging out with the mascot.

Nice pictures and a good review.

I've smoked one Cain maduro robusto, and I gotta say the strength pretty much overpowered the flavour. It wasn't a bad cigar by no means, but there's plenty of better ones too. Natural version was a bit more to my liking, though not a great one either.

Tom, nice review and pic's my friend!

Make sure you try the Habano and the Cain F too, just so you get an overall experience of the Cain line.
