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?

So how are they? Inquiring minds want to know.

I'm smoking an '09 HdM du Gourmet that is the bomb. Delicious in the nutty, woody, blackberry flavor spectrum with lots of life left in it. Big flavor for such a thin smoke.

It was not a good experience.
It started out good but about 5 minutes in it started raining and then shortly after that it tarred up. 4 snips later, I ended up pitching it so I’m going to have to give it another shot down the road.
Let me know if you get the opportunity to smoke one first.
QDO 50
extremely tasty, a little on the miler side, perfect draw,burn and construction.
Have only had a few of these out of the fiver I had bought.
They seem nearly impossible to find lately so I have been going through them slowly as who knows when I will be able to buy more at this point.
Doing a little experiment as I have never been able to get an answer from anyone I asked, about how the 50 and 54 compare as far as taste.
Everyone i have asked always said that they had only had one or the other, not both.
So i smoked this 50 as my morning Cigar and will have a 54 I was generously gifted for this purpose this evening to compare the two.

QDO 54
Extremely tasty and good draw and construction. Burn was a little off the whole time but not by a lot really.
Definitely a solid medium, and maybe even a medium-full as it progressed
Overall I definitely really enjoyed it and will definitely be buying some whenever I can find them in stock somewhere.
As to comparing the taste of the 50 and 54, i can't really say it's even a little similar to me, but I think the large difference in strength between the two is a big part of it.
The 50 is very mild and subtle to me, while the 54 really jumped out at me.
I honestly didn't enjoy one more than the other either. If I'm in the mood for something mild, I'd pick the 50, for something a fair bit stronger, the 54.
Which means I'll have to wait and buy both when they can be found.

My first of these
Very tasty, and especially so in the second half where a nice, unique undertone I can't describe developed.
Cold draw was virtually nonexistent. Had a pretty big plug near the middle, but the PerfecDraw took care of it for the most part.
Burn was excellent and other than the plug, so was every other aspect of the construction was fine.
Definitely a very good smoke for the price. Definitely added to my bookmarks to buy again.
