  • 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.

I happened to get another one of these and decided to smoke it and see if it was worth the $55 price tag.

Construction is perfect no blemishes a beautiful looking cigar with the brush like tail.

Nose: On the nose you get hit with some pepper and a hint of sweet almost coco aroma.

1/3: Right off the back you get the pepper with some slight cedar. as the flavors develop you start to get that sweet/coco flavor you got on the nose. There is also a creamy note that is very pleasant.

2/3 & final 1/3: Not alot of change in flavors just a great smoke. Each draw has a different dominant flavor. One Draw is more of a cedar with sligth sweet and cream while the next is more of a creamy coco with a hint of cedar in the back.

Overall this is a fantastic smoke and for a celebratory smoke its worht the $55. If I won the lottery I would probably try and get my hands on a few boxes.

ouch, a $55 price tag is going to be difficult for an everyday smoker but once in a blue moon this sounds like it would be worth a shot!
