  • 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.

How many of you guys have heard of this cigar?

I was turned onto this cigar by FrankLuke, Thanks man.

It is a great robust cigar. Loads of flavor, great taste, and an awesome burn. This cigar is a definate must try for anyone who likes a fuller bodied cigar. I have several Toro sized smokes, so be ready of a longer smoke. I think this cigar is one of my favorite NC smokes out there. I picked up mine for around $6.00 a stick, I love them and think if you haven't tried one you should try to get your hands on a couple.. Enjoy :peace:


Legendary pipe maker Eric Nording and red hot cigar maker Rocky Patel have teamed up on a joint venture to re-introduce an old cigar brand called Nording. Made with a blend on Honduran and Nicaraguan tobacco these dark, oily cigars not only look great they taste great.


Leaning toward full bodied with a spicy finish the Nording Cigar is what we call finger burners. The flavor of this cigar as you pass the band is even better than how it starts out and that you would think is as good as it gets. Reminiscent of La Gloria Cubana with an Edge kick with spice best describes this gorgeous well balance newcomer. Nording is another home run for Rocky Patel and a must try cigar.

i like them alot, its funny i dont like anything rocky patel makes but this cigar... i'm a fan of the mini torpedo size as well as the toro...like kelly said, its a cigar worth giving a try...

also ther pretty hard to get nobody really has it evan online vendors, my b&m carries them, so if anybody wants to give them a try LMK and i'll pick up a couple for you.

How much are they for singles? I have yet to buy a box of anything, as my storage is kind of limited.

I have to say, I have really liked all the Rocky Patel's I have smoked so far.

wow, thats cool !!
Meeting Rocky isn't that big of a deal; he's been in town several times...I think I recall something about him spending several HUNDRED days per year touring b&ms around the country. He's extremely approachable.

I just happened to ask him what all he makes besides his own name-brand sticks, and since we were in the humidor, he just started walking around, picking things up and showing me.

:kiss:
