  • 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.

Warm enough for an outdoor smoke! Recluse Amadeus Habano Reserva from The Cigar Authority care package, and a glass of the limited edition Coffee IPA from Cigar City brewing in Tampa.



Early results--the cigar is technically great--excellent burn, nice construction. Flavor wise, I get raisin and chicory. It's not bad but Cigar of the year? Really?

Let's be honest though, best part of a January smoke--

There is a good reason these are going the way of the dodo bird. Absolutely my least favorite from AJ. The first half was so dry I thought my Boveda pack had given up the ghost. By the time cream shows up in the profile all you have is dry wood, light chocolate, red pepper, and a little bit of espresso. Tastes like a yard gar at best.

Edit:
Yeah, this one got trashed. It turned sour and hot with 1/3 left to go. I would not recommend this to anyone.
