  • 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.

gonna do a little different review to keep you from getting bored with them


my name is carlos. don carlos.
i am a wanted man,actively hunted for pleasure often.
this is my anniversary and i feel like smoking a cigar.
a good looking,firm bodied cigar that smells like cedar


a little punch to wake it up. torch to the foot to make sure it's ready,and the celebration begins.
it got started when cedar showed up, followed quickly by spicy and tobacco


creamy showed up and they all started dancing,switching partners,drawing tight,but burning good


i'm enjoying myself


zilla's back


spicy cedary tobacco has a taste of leather and it's starting to get creamier,coming together nicely


spicy got quiet and sat in the corner. leather took the opportunity to get a little coffee with cream.
drawing,burning,smoking fine.
ash fell a little over an inch in. mighta been my fault...ok,my fault.


spice had a rest and then said hello. the rest of the flavors happily welcomed it back,and started dancing together again


getting shorter,part of the band had to go.
seems to be producing more smoke now. band conflicts happen i suppose


the rest of the band has to go soon. that means i'm getting closer to the end of the party.
same great flavors still dancing around in harmony, so cool and creamy


as you know,don carlos always leaves you with a poem

even anniversaries have to end
it was a great celebration though
with very tasteful friends
putting on a very tasty show



my friend,do yourself a favor,smoke a cigar


thanks for reading,hope you enjoyed the review!

Haha, great review! You make 'em fun to read, that's for sure! The Don Carlos Anni is one of my favorite cigars, and my favorite Fuente.

Thanks for the review.
