  • 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.

Cigar: My Father #2 (5.5 x 54)

Cost: Don't remember

Drink: Orange Crush

Appearance: This has a habano rosado wrapper on it. The wrapper is flawless. It has one of the best bands I have ever seen on a cigar. The appearance gets a 10/10







Pre-Light: The cigar smells great. The smell is very floral and sweet. I didn't pick up much flavor on the pre-light.

Construction: Held an average ash. The draw was perfect.

Taste of the cigar: The first 1/4" has a strong cedar/wood taste to it. About 1" in, the flavor is cedar/wood as well as some coffee flavors. The cedar/wood/coffee flavor remained throughout the rest of the cigar.



Strength: This is a medium bodied cigar.

Summary: This cigar was pretty average to me. It was pretty one-dimensional. I like the lancero size better because it is more complex and you can really pick up the wrapper flavors. I give this cigar a 7/10.

Great review and funny you should pair it up with Orange soda being I have been smoke quite a few of my sticks with orange soda and it really goes well together.
