  • 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 the next few weekends 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.

Review # 42
$3. - $6.
5.0" x 42
Strength: Full
Wrapper: Habano Maduro, Ligero
Origin: Nicaragua
Shapes: Corona

Prelight: Cedar, sweet tobacco, cap has a little tail and unfinished foot, cigar is firm to the touch.

1st 1/3
Dark coffee, white pepper, spice, earth, toasted wood, slightly hard draw.
Sense coffee going across my tongue as I take a hard draw

Well behaved burn line, hard draw continues
The flavors remind me of a MOW Ruination #2 but muted a bit.

2nd 1/3
Coffee turning to espresso along with nuts, and toasted wood, white pepper is more hot spice like then pepper, draw perfect now.

Nice little theater cigar for that short intermission
(dam they won't let you do that anymore)

Getting smoother creamier espresso along with aged leather notes and some light sweetness.

Final 1/3
Deep pepper zing note along with a hickory aroma, wood, semi sweetness and some N factor buzz

Great burn line and a slow smoke for it's size, not much more to report.
The cigar is dyed to give it a more appealing appearance but didn't have any of it on my lips or fingers

Smoke time 55 min
Score 8.5 out of 10

I really enjoy these for the money. I just bought my 3rd box on the devil site for $31.00. Have yet to pay more than that and with the flavor and strength that I get out of them these are a can't miss cigar.

Another good solid review and we seem to have the same tastes...this is a very good cigar and smoke one a week and these are box worthy for sure. I am pretty devoted to maduros as it is and this is a really good cigar when you can let them rest for 6 months...maybe even a 9 on CigaryScale.
