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.
So how'd you find these? Or where did you find them?Stupid Tapatalk, finally got the pic attached.
Anyways, this is Paul Stulac's No Dress Code. Thick, dark wrapper, plenty of seams, not even attempted triple cap... but these are supposed to be "fresh rolls" and i guess imperfect.
Now the draw... is flawless, holy hell, love it. Construction is awesome (minus the wrapper), tight white ash, minor wave in the burnline, solid packing.
Flavors are cedar, dark cocoa, and some hay/grassy notes on the finish, possibly because it's "fresh". So far so good, plus i love torpedoes![]()

Second third is even better, still a pleasant medium body, the chocolate has become more pronounced and balanced with a slight salted caramel, but still that fresh young hay note on the back of my tongue. Wonder if these will age up a bit...

Last third is always my "young" third with Cubans, presumably this is where it's at a higher relative humidity since it will dry slower at the head. Noticing it here as well. Some chalk and mineral notes poking through. Medium-full body note. I have no doubt this will age out. Fantastic smokes, makes me want my Lord Albany's...

If you haven't had an Umbagog yet, you must. It's potent, yet smooth. Perfect draw and burn; putting out flavors of chocolate, leather, and a spicy pepper note in the retrohale. And they're cheap!
