  • 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.

Box-pressed 6 1/2 x 52 toro vitola
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Habano
Binder: Nicaraguan
Filler: Nicaraguan


Finally got one of these to burn so here we go...

Quick Review
Barnyard smell, tingle on the lips
Young, bit bitter off the light
Medium Strength
Stong hint of creamy coffee...hope that last
Getting into the 2nd
Part it reminds me strongly of a San Lotano Oval...very comparable
Settling down nice...Good draw..wavy burn
Still getting nice hints of coffee with the habano zing
Final 3rd
No surprises. Still giving off the same flavors and burn till the nub.
Final burn time 1hr 30min

Final Thoughts
I would say this is my favorite of the three (Sumatra, Broadleaf, Habano). It really in my opinion taste the same as a Latano Oval which I like as well.
Would I buy a box...tough call. Definitely a 5'r to see if aging changes these.
I don't have fancy taste buds enough to pick out the little things in a cigar but enough to tell me weather I like it or not.
I would suggest you try these for sure and compare for yourself but over all a very decent smoke.
