  • 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 time 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.

I won a few of these boxes on cbid over the past few weeks, stocking up since garcia wont be doing these anymore. Anyway one of the boxes i got were some lanceros, and they came in the old special edition 2005 box.

I opened the box up and they were covered in white powdery goodness :grin: Since It appeared to be my lucky day, getting an aged box and all, i decided i had to smoke one. Let me just say i was blown away by this stick. One of the best DPG sticks i have ever had. I am not sure if i want to smoke some more or let them age a few more years. As of right now i cant see them getting much better, but there is always the chance that they will.

Anyway has anyone else gotten older boxes from cbid? Is this a rare thing?

Smoke some and put the others down for a long nap. If I have a box that is smoking good no matter the age I tend to smoke em while they are good.
