  • 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.

Country of Origin: Nicaragua

Wrapper: Mexican San Andrés
Binder: Nicaragua
Filler: Nicaragua
Size: 4 3/8 Inches
Ring Gauge: 50
Vitola:petit Robusto
MSRP:$7.50 (Boxes of 10, $75.50)
Date Released: June 11, 2012
Number smoked before review: 1
Resting time before smoking 2 years 2 months



Prelight: sweet tobacco, hay, earth and leather, barnyard, wood, and coffee
Has a nipple cap and an unfinished foot with a piece of light brown Connecticut Ecuador shade wrapper glued on top of the regular wrapper as the band, very hard when squeezed.



1st 1/3
Sweet tobacco, hay, earth and leather, tiny amount of spice and pepper
Has some nice dry sweetness, like graham crackers and it is noticeable all the way through the first 1/3
Construction perfect both burn and draw, and the strength a solid medium



2nd 1/3
Getting more focused flavors, earth, dark chocolate, wood and hay, along with that lovely sweetness all blending together . Burn and draw remain perfect and the strength continues to increase, ending the second third at a strong medium.
Ash falls off for the first time here, the blend of sweetness is very memorable here and want more


Final 1/3

The Baby Face is now creamy overall, and goes to a solid full.
Dark chocolate, oak, earth, espresso and a hint of leather.
The sweetness from the first two thirds is dropping off and the strength is picking up telling me slow down the draws to keep her cool or I’ll have to put her down.
This is the only Little Monster not having a band but this one your can smoke right over.
Overall a super cigar and well worth the price of admission but hard to find at times.



Smoking time 1hr 20 min
Score 10
