  • 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.

This 7×48 cigar features a dark tan wrapper with a slight green hue, a soft buttery oily feel, minimal veins, tight seams, very firm even construction, a double cap and a nice sweet cedar aroma. This is purportedly infused with a bit of Grand Marnier. First light reveals a little bit of what tastes like a sweetened tip, with overall a mild-medium woody body with a snug draw and minimal smoke output. The first third drops to a solid mild body with good smoke output, a perfect draw and a sweet, creamy wood flavor. An interesting note, the foot smoke occasionally smells just like pot! The 2nd third came and went with no changes, hitting the 1/2 way point 40 minutes in. The last third starts by dropping the sweetness and ramping up smoke production and body to a solid medium. Ending at 1:30 minutes the last bit showed no further changes. http://cigarobsession.com/2011/07/19/don-abram-harris-presidential-reserve-churchill-cigar-review/

Very funny about the smell!!

But I gotta question you about your minimal veins statement?
Looking at the picture it appears that there is a HUGE vein running the entire lenght of the stick.

It's more the light bringing it out and only in appearance. I mention veins that would effect the burn, those that you can feel. If it's just lines you can see, they don't do anything.

Thank you for a good review. This is one of my favorite cigars we produce. the Infusion is with a 100 year old Grand Marnier and covers the entire wrapper.

Interesting review....that size cigar ending at an hour and 30 minutes....that's some "hoover style" cigar smoking by Glenn....price point?
