  • 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.

Wouldn't you like to know?
I've heard other versions as well, but the one I gave is the one I think most true; for I have yet to meet someone that explains to me how is it they age better.
I agree that it sounds the best but Martinez is the only person with a background in Cuba Tobacco to say anything on the history of culebra's in Cuba. When he says that the hand out thing is false even if their reasoning for the doing it is wrong I would have to believe him. I would have to go with credible officials then hear say or my own best guess.

That's an excelent point; but still ye should always question whatever information is given (not that I want to pursue this debate, for none of us both know the answer nor will find it soon). Whatever the history behind them is, I like the way it can be shared with 2 mates.

I think that really as unfortunate as it is to say the real answers to it are lost. There are 3 good credible choices I have heard and all 3 also have their faults as well. I still have some of the old machine made one in my humi as well. I think these coffined ones are the first hand made culebra's out of Cuba.
