  • 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.

La Flor Dominicana Air Bender es bien!

Woo-hoo!

Can't wait for the official release of these so my local can carry them!

This has everything that was so good about the Salomones at a fraction of the price.

I had the robusto and it began like others wish they finished. Cherry and cocoa and leather without the dryness.

There was a subtle nose spice that picked up now and then.

This is the Zen cigar for sure- a great balance between flavor and strength, complex and gives you that mouthful of flavor that you get in the "sweet spot" in most other cigars.

This, however, is not the strongest cigar in the LFD stable, but makes up for it in flavor tenfold.

The last half amped up the coca, threw in some espresso with a touch of Habano musk!

If every 8 dollar cigar was this good...

Woot!

Oh yeah, this was the Matatan (robusto) something or other.

Yeah, I agree...really liked the Matatan. Letting the rest of my box sleep for a little while.

Thanks for the review Jamie! :thumbsup:

You and I have similar tastes when it comes to cigars so I'm sure this will be a cigar I have to add to my humidor.

I have smoked the Matatan as well, and it was the best of the 2 vitolas that I have tried.

I was at Empire Cigars last night smoking a couple of cigars with Marty (L8A) and Hal told us the Air Benders were in....and damn if I didn't forget to pick one up before I left.

Just picked up a few (2 robustos & 1 double robusto) from Atlantic last night! Can't wait to try one! I didn't realize it had the habano wrapper on it that was put on the Salomone & the Habana Corona & Habana Perfecto - Now I'm even more excited to try it!
