  • 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.

Brand: Perdomo
Line: La Tradicion No. 5
Vitola: 6 3/4 x 55
Origin: Ecuador Wrapper and
Wrapper: Rosado
Binder: Nicaraguan (I think)
Filler: Cuban Seed Filler from Nicaragua
Body: Medium
Strength: Medium
Price: $7 was gifted to me.

Description: Firm and clean wrapper. Smooth and like dark saddle leather color. Cut with my NUB cutter.

Burn: Draw was easy to loose. Smoke was moderate. Burn was fairly straight with one minor touchup (probably due to breeze.)

Verdict: There was a bit of leather and a cocoa but not to the point of chocolate. Flavor turned out to be mild to medium. Retrohale was clean with no spice. I like stronger sticks, so not my cup of tea. There wasn't anything offensive so if you like mild to medium you might like it. $7 was a bit high in my opinion.
