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.
What CC you smoking?

Against all better judgement I tried my new Quintero Favoritos tonight. They only had a few days rest, box is from 11/19 and they were squishy so I knew it was unlikely to go well. I figured at under $3 a stick what the heck.....
I have to say the burn was straight as a razor shortly after lighting it until the end with no corrections, the draw was a little loose and the flavor was a bit on the weak side compared to the year old Brevas I have but all and all it turned out better than I expected. A little bitterness and heat at about the 1.5" mark
@Mr. Sparky Now that I've officially tried the Favoritos too, I'd say they need some time in the humidor (not sure how much) but will probably be really good after a year+

on Sunday, I tried my first Johnny-O EL Piramide Extra Super Tasty Dream Stick.
(6 1/3 X 54) Is a healthy size, and I really enjoyed the flavors and aromas from this excellent cigar.
Now all I need to do is smoke up some inferior stock to make room for more EL stock, which is my plan for 2020.
Monday was back to normal, an R y J Mille Fleur for my morning stroll, followed by a Parti SD4 from 2016.
The SD4 are coming around nicely,another year will only improve things........

A Monte petit robusto? I think it was too short to be a petit edmundo but almost. Came in a sampler of petit Robusto's
It was very good 'till the end, whatever it was...

I don't know about its peak, but this one was a good afternoon smoke. Floral with flavors of sweet bread and sweet spice. I wish I could grab another box of the same code, it'd do it in a heartbeat.
