Aging Room Maduro - Life Offers So Few Pleasures - The Borons Cigar Blog
http://borons.org/aging-room-maduro
Ed is back again, and this time we reviewed the Aging Room Maduro. This cigar is made by Boutique Blends Cigars, also known as Oliveros. This is a clean, cool burning, refined, sweet, peppery smoke. There were minimal changes, but subtle differences from third to third kept it interesting. At times, we were stumped. Yes, even Ed is challenged from time to time.

The burn required a couple small corrections, and the ash held for about 3/4 of an inch. It should be noted, after lighting up, the draw became much better. Be the first to comment. Tom's Cig...

http://borons.org/2013/10
Archive for October, 2013. I picked up these cigars at Ed’s shop. As you’d expect, the namesake of the Tatuaje 10th Anniversary is self explanatory. I have heard that this blend is the same as the original brown label. In essence, it is a re-release of that cigar. Wrapper: Ecuador Habano Binder: and Filler: Nicaragua Size: Robusto Bon […].

http://borons.org/aging-room-m21
If you watched Ed and I review the Aging Room Maduro. You may remember him mentioning this cigar. Ed claimed it to be the strongest cigar in his shop. The M21 is of very limited production, so I jumped at the chance to review it. This time around, I am without Ed. My intent was to do a written review. After making some changes with how we record video reviews, this became more of an excuse to do a technical test. So, take 8 minutes, and see what I have to say about the Aging Room M21.

The ash held for just about two inches, and the burn required a couple small corrections. The last third went up another tick in strength, but stayed in the medium range. Cocoa and coffee...
