  • 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.

Ive been on a LFD streak the past few days; loving their cigars...So I decided to review this one...never had it before. It is about a 7/10 on the full-bodied line of LFD's Ligero line.

Appearance: The oscuro wrapper is almost black and extremely oily. Smells great. The draw is absolutely perfect. Starting this cigar off 100%! :)




First Third:
Initally, this cigar lit very easily and started off sporting a heavy black pepper/wood mixture. Not too over powering, but thats probably because i just ate. :razz: The black pepper soon died down into a very mild peppery taste that is very pleasant and gives off a great spice thru the nose. other flavors at this point include: Cedar, a "barnyard" taste, and a slight hint of black licorice. Very, very enjoyable.



Second Third: Flavors are starting to become more and more sweet and adding more spice to the exhaled smoke...the barnyard taste has left and a nice heavy woody flavor has taken the spot of it. nothing "new" is shining thru at the moment.



Last Third: the smoke has really picked up now and has a hot taste to it...getting very spicy and any trace of sweetness has left. the woody notes are still present but in the background of the spice. I picked up a flavor right at the end that really reminded me of Woodford Reserve Bourbon :) The cigar ended very spicy, but great! Loved every part of this smoke. You will def. want to eat before enjoying this smoke, i loved everything about it!
