  • 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 # 55
$7. retail
4.5 x 50
Country of Origin: Nicaragua
Wrapper Color: Natural
Wrapper Origin: Nicaraguan
Wrapper Leaf Type: Habano



Prelight: Hay, sweet tobacco

1st 1/3
Great draw, construction, new leather, milk chocolate, roasted coffee all semi-sweet, med/full, No sh it pepper thank God....
Lots of flavor on the lips and tongue, toasted oak digging this stick, ash burning nice and straight....

2nd 1/3
Producing creamy thick sweet smoke, leather, draw just enough to cause friction across the tongue to pick up all the flavors.
Bold spice and leather and semi sweet chocolate is very chewy flavorful

Final 1/3
Turning to full bodied and still creamy, thick, sweet smoke. wonderful smoking experience, the best cigar out of the My Father line to me, razor sharp all the way down to the nub.
I found the Flor De Las Antillas a dog rocket compared to this gem

Smoke time: 1hr 15 min
Score: 9 out 10

Great review brother!

The petite Robusto is my favorite my father cigar (all lines included) also the only my father I've jumped on a box purchase with (multiple actually) they really shine at the 8-10 month mark.

Keep them coming!

Nice job. I agree with your assessment. I go box on these as well. Another beauty is the Federal Connecticut version in petit robo format.
