  • 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.

For what i paid for the stick, i was very impressed.




I torched it outside with my lunch today...it offered up some nice mocca and chocolate notes with a peppery finish that stayed with me long...

It was very diverse in flavor and different tasting...the tobacco in it comes from the D.R., mexico, Honduras, Nica, and Costa Rica. It was very plasurable and it is my new go-to budget smoke. The only thing i didnt like all that much was the smell of the lingering smoke...other than that, very enjoyable!

thanks for reading!

They let you smoke cigars at your high school?:eyepoke:

ok Just kidding

I like the 1959 as well, you should also try the 1916 cameroons. they are roughly $100 and can be had for less on sale.

I also had a pleasant experience with this cigar. It was the first time I've ever tasted "raisin" in a cigar and had an ash longer than 3" or so. It gave Toranos a good first impression to me, but I definitely remember smoking this bad boy slow so as not to get my ass kicked by this one (I had significantly less experience with cigars during the time I spent with the 1959). I believe this cigar is a good precurser to cigars stronger than it.

Thanks for the review, bro! Remember, I'm about your age too and it's nice seeing my age group on here (despite the high school remarks hahah... JK)!
