  • 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 rested for 82 days at 65% RH. The first thing I will say about this stick is I wasn’t crazy about the paper it come wrapped in and the double band as they were both a little tricky to remove. That aside it was a nice looking cigar with some slightly visible seams and a few visible veins but a very consistent light brown color and solid construction. The pre-light aroma was of grass/hay and I detected a subtle sweetness. The cap was applied well. I used a punch on this and it took the punch with no issues. The pre-light flavor again displayed a slight sweetness to it and grass. Both the pre and post light draws were smooth and delivered a bountiful amount of smoke. The burn lin was perfect remaining straight throughout the entire smoke. The subtle sweetness remained prevalent during the smoke and there was no real spice/pepperiness discernable. Overall while not very complex a decent smoke, one I would gladly have as a midday smoke.

Thanks for the review, I'm glad to see your post. Turned the TV on the news for about half an hour while up there and caught the announcement that a famous Louisville chef died of a heart attack Saturday first think I thought was...………
