  • I've said this before - but this is just a reminder. I'll be breaking BOTL over time in order to get it into a far better place. Just be patient if you can't reach us! We'll be back

I forgot that he numbered them differently from the original post. I smoked what I thought was a Boli a couple of days ago. Turns out, it was a Siglo I. Then last night, I shoveled some snow and took along what I thought was a Monte #5. It was a HdM du Prince. I'm almost tempted to not go back and fix my spreadsheet and just continue smoking them blind.

The Siglo I was very spicey but I would have expected the Boli to be spicey too. I'm really looking forward to the Boli for comparison. I've always thought that larger Cohibas and Bolis taste nothing alike.

The du Prince was a great smoke. Lasted about 35-40 minutes and stayed together well in the temps I was out in (around 18 degrees.) I've always been suspicious of the HdM du line. I thought for a long time that they were machine made (since been proven wrong.) That's a terrific short smoke.

Cigars will be paired in ziplock sleeves, which will be marked as follows:

1, COHIBA Siglo I

2, HOYO DE MONTERREY du Prince

3, RAMON ALLONES Small Club

4, BOLIVAR Coronas Junior

5, MONTECRISTO N°5

6, PARTAGAS Short
That's what they SHOULD be. The first post (pre-purchase) had them in a different order.
