  • 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.

Anybody try these yet? Short filler from Don Pepin. I got the ~6x44 vitola. I just lit my first and it definitely has the Pepin taste, even on a retrohale. I'll say more once it's finished. By the way, only $2.50 at my B&M!!

Saw the Outlaw boys talking about it on there forum a while back, but have yet to see them anywhere.

It sounded promising, may have to make a trade sometime soon.

I'm getting a weird taste in the middle (similar to what the review discussed), nothing too obnoxious, though. Still tastes very 'Pepin'.

I gotta try these...Where did you score them? JJ's?

I had a Partagas #1 cc tonight and it was very sweet...like a sweet vanilla soda with earth tones...nice....also had my first CAO America which I think may be my favorite CAO yet!

This ended really well. I'll definitely smoke more.
I'm guessing you like it more than the Tat Series P?

And you really do need to try those new Illusione "Cuchillos Cubanos," they're my current favorite stick at the $3.50 retail price point. If you like Illusiones, try them.

Yep, they are pretty good for a $3.50 tag...

Not a big fan of the short filler, but I did smoke this one and man for a $2-$3 stick it is great! I punched it which I am not a big fan of either but it helps with the short filler. I didn't find myself spitting bits the whole time so it must work..

"I think its 60/40 or something like that"

That's what I remember reading somewhere, just can't remember where.
