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.

Smoked the La Riqueza Lance out of the Tat Lance Sampler today, paired with a homemade chai tea.
It wasn't a disappointment, as I had no expectations, but the smoke was kind of bland. The was no depth to the flavor a bit of dry earthiness and a hit of spice now and again, but nothing to write home about. It did burn well, and put off a fair amount of smoke.
Anyone else smoke theirs yet?

Can't remember who sent me this thank you.
These Matilda are fantastic!
An unbanded CroMagnon Mandible. A bit of a jawbreaker but so smooth and creamy with a nice spice on the back end and retrohale
With thanks to hogfarmer. Excellent smoke.
I went strait for the Fausto, mmm.
The rebate banded (can't remember the blend name) was really good too!
LA Ricky isn't my favorite tat blend anyway, I'm sure I'll get around to it.
Baitfish for the drive to work.

Seen a few of these being smoked lately. Tried one earlier this year then bought a fiver. Just had the first one of the fiver over the weekend with about 4 months on rest. Wasn't as impressed as I remember. 1st inch was a firkin pepper bomb. Middle 1/3 was decent then got spicy again and had some burn issues where the wrapper overlapped itself. It new what I was thinking and extinguished itself as I was about to put it down.
