Est. 1844

I have noticed big differences in these. One will be great the next will be a bit flat. I have always prefaced my love of these with "for the price". I do think there great for the dollar each (maybe two dollars sometimes) that I give for them. Also the last few shipments seems less exciting than the first ones I got, Maybe different harvest or time might actually do these a favor. Either way I will do my duty as a BOTL and smoke many more in the name of research of coarse.

I just had one of these (50 xtra) this afternoon, and I can't say that I was impressed. It felt like it was fairly loosely rolled, and it's draw was very easy. It tasted fairly sweet, and I think that I could make out caramel and cocoa. I really had to be careful not to draw too fast, or it got hot and a bit harsh.

Not a bad smoke, but nothing great. I might let the remaining sticks sit for a few months and see if they improve.
