  • 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.

Had the opportunity to smoke this stick tonight.

I must say, I am extremely impressed. For such a dark cigar, the flavors came off mild and settled in a very rich, almost coffee-like sense that flooded the senses.

I paid $14.00 for it. But I have to say, this is one cigar that was worth every dollar.

What does everyone else think?

Look/feel - This stick was a little oily and well rolled. It had a firmness to it that made it seem like a quality cigar. Veins were tight and compact. 25

Flavor - Excellent, dark flavor. Enjoyed the spicy yet mild taste. 30

Burn - Perfect draw for 1 1/2 hours. Hard, gray ash throughout. Couldn't ask for any more, though I felt that my cut could have been a little better. I found myself pulling bits off my lips every now and then but I cannot blame the cigar. Probably my $5 cutter from the B&M. 32

Overall, I give this an 87. This is now one of my favorite smokes.

I was gifted one and really wasn't too fond of it. I don't remember what it was exactly that I didn't like. I may have to try it again later.

I smoked one of these, cost about the same, on the recommendation of a friend.

Wasn't impressed. Nice cigar, but not worth the 14. Had LGC reserva that tasted better.

Wouldn't you like to know?
I love these in the 11/18 size.
I got the travel case of the 11/18 size and have been let down by construction on every cigar I have smoke out of it. Not that they were that bad but they all had very loose draws. I don't know how much the liberty is worth but that is the one I really expected better construction from.

I thought this stick was OK but at California prices would rather smoke a Tatuaje.

The triple maduro did not impress me. I am a fan of the Camacho's from a few years ago. I only have one box left, but my Mar. 2006 Gigante is amazing. IMO, when Camacho was sold, their soul died.
