  • 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.

this is the 4th of the five i am reviewing

the tube


nice solid feel,dark wrapper,tobacco and pepper smell


xikar guillotine to cut,bugatti torch to light. it is just so easy when you have the right tools for the job.
very peppery with woodsy tasting tobacco in the first couple of puffs


partly cloudy,but a little chilly. good football weather,how 'bout them eagles!


still peppery with a light coffee and woodsy tasting tobacco.
ouch! retrohaling is not recommended!
burning good,drawing great with lot's of smoke


pepper has toned down a little. coffee has a bittersweet chocolate taste. you know,the kind you bake with. yeah,i've eaten it before...lol.


tobacco is still woodsy,but a little earthy tasting now too.
fantastic draw,good burn and clouds of smoke


Zilla,what are you smoking?
a phoenicio? i've never tried them. how is it?
cinnamon with green tea. sounds interesting.
no,i don't think anyone wants you to post a review


last couple of inches and it's still smoking good with no problems. pepper is kicking a bit,giving it a little bite,not harsh,but far from creamy


a strong finishing nub with the pepper kicking,coffee and cocoa are tasty,tobacco has an earthy taste that i kinda like.
still drawing great,burn tried to act up at the end,never a shortage of smoke though. about an hour's worth of smoking time.
it was good,but not my favorite of the ones i have smoked so far

These all seem like wonderful little cigars, I never knew anything about them until you started this series of reviews, thanks Ron!

BTW a Zilla review would be hilarious :)
