• 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.

    Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

    :cursing: Some guys have all the... best sticks. Damn. Nice day of smoking I'd say!

    Cigar Pet Peeves

    Cracked wrappers, sun spots, tears in general actually, messed up feet, plugs, over-zealous gluing of bands.... Ooo Ooo! Actually, I really hate when I try to take the band off (I rarely slide it off, and usually pull it apart), and it tears because there is too much glue. I keep my bands, and...

    Would you?

    This is an interesting point A, and despite only being in the Habanos game for a short time, I am constantly shocked at the ease with which some people happen to come upon boxes with some serious age on them. Not likely to find boxes of Opus with 6+ years of age on them with that kind of ease...

    Which current cigar

    Every time I go to my B&M I walk out with at least one Fuente stick, and one LFD stick. It just happens that way, without even thinking about it. Usually an Air Bender, and a Magnum R.

    Would you?

    Obviously depending on several factors, I would actually trade out CCs for Opus. I love my CCs, but I think at this point in my smoking life, I would rather smoke an Opus than almost any CC I've had.

    Magnum R 52. Delicious, even though it fell out of my ashtray onto the floor of the truck, and got all banged up.

    Tatuaje Culebra

    Meh. Smoked a couple of culebras before, and it just doesn't appeal to me. I could see having a couple on hand, but I would never buy a box of culebras (any, not just Tats) because I typically smoke alone.

    Prayers Needed for Aussie Flood Victims

    Done and done. It's terrible the things going on there. I have friends in several parts of the country, and unfortunately, some of them have been affected by this. (and totally selfishly, I may or may not have some cigars I'm waiting to be shipped from Down Under... Ahem...

    Tatuaje 7th

    These things are great now, but I think will really be something special after a year or so to really settle, and figure out what they want to be. They have moments where they can be a little muddled and dirty on the palette. I think once they age a little, they will be something really special.

    Bang for your buck smoke under 6 bucks

    Cuchillos Cubanos for one. Also, if you have the patience to let a cheap smoke really rest, then Diesel gets really good with 6 months or more, in my experience.

    RIP Dr. Lee

    Pancreatic Cancer is brutal. I know a few people who have suffered with it. Not a high survival rate. I'm sorry to hear this Jack.

    Holy Lance Maduro/Candela?

    I don't think of Candelas as being creamy at all, in my experience. Not really sweet either. More a dry, grassy, earth flavor, with very defined peppery notes. Not harsh pepper, just very specifically white or black peppercorn flavors. Obviosuly the sharp, fresh cut grass element is key.

    Hmm, this is the first I have heard of this, but if there is truth to it, I'll be on it like stink on shit...
