  • 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 time 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.

Today's Haul

I have smoked the Mi Barrio prior to this purchase and loved it. I am not a great review writer and don't claim to have a great palate(sp). The stick was firm to the touch with a beautiful wrapper with few evident veins. This thing smoked like a chimney with nice amounts of creamy white smoke. I got hints of earth, nuts, and buttered popcorn (i know, but thats what it tasted like to me). This stick took about 2 hrs and 30 mins to finish and was enjoyable down to the nub. Medium bodied. Can't wait to let these sit for a while and try another.

Oooh...sounds yummy to me. Definitely looking for for medium-bodied smokes. Being a Tat whore is nice and all :grin: , but other than the Cabaiguans, its all pretty stiff. Its nice to have something a little more mellow...
