  • 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.

Old damp wood and coffee is all I am really getting in the first half-inch. Then hay, cedar, coffee, and a bit of spice on the tongue. Not an overly dry smoke, but I could use a bit of water.

The deeper I get the more it feels like this cigar was designed to compliment the wrapper. It seems like they said, "we are using a San Andres wrapper" and decided to build everything else in service of the wrapper. It is a welcome change and reminds me of the CH Court Reserve XVIII in that way.

Edit: As I get deeper I think this would be worth a try if you like Crowned Heads. Surprisingly I think fans of Brazilian tobacco might find something to like here. I just wish it had a touch of fruit or sweetness.

What were your thoughts on the cigar. I find it interesting that Nas is involved with the brand.
I really liked it. They’re a touch expensive. Had the floral Nicaragua notes pretty clearly. Did shift around a little. I’d buy another single. If I saw a good sale I’d consider more. good smoke
That was the natural in double corona
