  • 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.

I bought a fiver of these in the Bishop size. I smoked one, didnt lik eit and dumped the rest way in the bottom of the cooledor to be found today about 8 months later. This is a great looking cigar. Dark and oily wrapper with a very nice roll. Pre-light taste was very earthy. I lit er up and got a ton of smoke and a very pleasant Pepin taste. Nice salt & pepper ash that held very well. The taste had some black cherry sweetness with lots of earthiness. The sweetness stayed throughout the cigar and I am in the process of nubbing it. This was a very good cigar that pleasantly suprised me. I may have to get a bundle and put them away.

I also have a few of these resting. Good to hear that they get better with a little age.

I really have to say I almost dumped them after the first one. I am glad I waited.
