  • 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.

This morning, I took the opportunity to smoke the Headley Grange. Really enjoyed this cigar (thanks again jadawin). Started out medium strength, was medium-full by the end. Great combination of flavors. The toffee flavors at times were close to caramel (creamier)...but wasn't right to that point. Really looking forward to when this cigar is fully released in other sizes....especially in my favorite size, the corona gorda.

Like these; both show release and the "new" one. Can't wait for the other sizes to come out in the spring! Jon (Huber) was hinting at a new size the other day in a post that I'm excited about.

Great review. I couldn't agree more with the flavor notes, I've had the same experience consistently as I burn through my box. Sweet and spicy should be the tagline for this cigar.

Great review! I hope to get a few of this 1st release to try, and will wait until the regular release to grab a box if I like them.

Yay! More smokes that aren't using stupidly large RGs. I'm already a fan.

I need to buy some nutmeg at the grocery store and eat it since I'm not sure what it tastes like. Perhaps it's one of the flavors in cigars that I like but can't describe? Another great review :)

Agreed! Largest ring guage I had was a viaje stuffed turkey and it was a decent smoke but I had a hard time getting into it. RG was just too damn big and I know many cigars go much bigger then that.

BTW, the one Headley Grange I had this week was amazingly awsome.

As always, kockroach, thanks for the review.
