  • 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 the next few weekends 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.

You can look forward to a cigar which is better than looking forward to a sharp stick in the eye. For what it's worth.

sorry I'm not sure I've ever had one.

I have only had a couple from Carlos Torano line and loved them both. I haven't tried one of those reserva selecta yet, but if it is anything like the others then you will love it.

I believe these come in the glass tubes. with the blue band.

If that's the case, you can expect and well constructed cigar that is mild to medium in strenght. well balanced. i can't recall the flavor profiles, but the burn is super straight and it's a good cigar. I used to smoke those quite often, alone with the signature line.

Lemme know if im' right about any of that.

if not, enjoy none the less

I also found these to be in the mild-medium range and very smooth. Flavors mostly of cedar, some nutty elements and sweet tobacco. Pretty good overall.

I had about 2 so far, and everyone here is right on point.Very nice smoke and mild. These are the ones that come in the glass tubes with the blue bands.

I'm going to have another one in a moment

I still have a few. I remember them to be Mild to Medium but quite flavorable. That was a long time ago.
