  • 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.

Really wish I had bought more of these back in the day.

Me too. I was lucky to get the gordo sized smokes since all the other vitolas were first to sell out. I did pick up the Talavera's that weren't double banded and they smoked amazing. Wishful thinking if they'll ever come out with another release of these smokes.

Please tell me that smoked amazing. I've never been able to age one for myself that long
You just need to roll more than you smoke, aging problem solved!

Started out reminding me a lot of a Murcielago, which I like, but smoother. Nearing the final third now and it is really good, lots of botanical flavors, tinctures, tree barks, roots etc that remind me of a spicy natural brewed version of Dr. Pepper. Also some bright fruit, and a savory note that reminds me of a good serano ham!
