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.

I don't smoke cigars often... HaHa just kidding :)
Copy cat lol
A well aged Davidoff/Camacho era Room 101 Namakubi sporting an "x" cut. Just a goofy double v cut that someone showed me years ago.
It is enjoyable, but not very vibrant. The less aged Fudu was popping where this one is just cruising.
Edit:
A slow pace is necessary to get the most out of he stick. A bit of cream, cooking spice, pepper, straight tobacco, and something sweet. Actually this may be pushing the edges of suitable humidor time for the blend. Then again, it was being stored in the old pipe tobacco area and feels a little dry.
Edit 2:
The third picture was an interesting point. It hit me with a spice kick so strong I started sneezing. I did not expect that at all. It just flipped the switch in to pepper, leather, earth, and coffee with cream.

You do a normal V cut and then turn the cigar ninety degrees for a second V cut. I like it for smaller ring gauges, and cigars that have questionable caps.
Cheap Vertigo V cutters are a little too shallow, or maybe just too cheap.
