• 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.

    Love panetelas, do not love mild cigars

    The cuban market has always produced a lot of great panatella's. Depending on day and age which is my favorite. Posted via Mobile Device

    The Fifty Best Cigars!?

    If everyone on botl was to post their top 50 list I think many would be surprised as to how many from those lists were on the one in the article. We have our specific makers that are very popular with most on here but there are many more out there that people love and smoke. Hate to say it but I...

    Best Coffee Maker with a timer

    Really depends on your budget? I love my Saeco super automatic as no need for a program on it grind and make by the cup on demand. If you like americano style coffee this is a great choice just not very budget friendly. Posted via Mobile Device

    Titanium Cigar Punch

    I will say this is an awesome piece. While it may not be cheap it never will be when you are buying a custom/hand meade piece. Many times we get so used to chinese assembly line pieces that we forget what price comes with american made labour and low production #'s. I am sure this will be a...

    Coming deletions...

    I think the plan is that everything that is a LCDH release is a short term release. Think gold medals were around for 5 years then deleted as did many of the SCDLH LCDH cigars. I may be the only one that likes this marketing ploy as most of the newer LCDH stuff has been very good as well. And if...

    Anyone Smoke Garbage?

    I don't smoke cigars just to smoke but have had some amazing cigars for $3 and epic for $5. Price is not always the best indicator to quality. Posted via Mobile Device

    Interesting thoughts from Hamlet regarding how much flavor the wrapper imparts...

    Here is a different way of looking at it. When I have been in the factories in Havana it has been explained to me that most natural cigars get the wrapper from the same pile and the blending is more so done with the filler. It is explained to me, and I have never really beleived it till now but...

    Stagg Done Got 'spensive Round Here

    Good news is that we are actually getting some here in Canada this year. The whole province is getting 6 cases. Would not be so bad if it wasn't for the fact they are 3 packs. Good news is the rep is a good buddy of mine. So will get a couple for sure. Posted via Mobile Device

    Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

    Not been having good luck with cigars so today went with a 03 cohiba reserva pyramid. Was pretty good but going to have to dig way deeper soon as nothing seems to be cutting it Posted via Mobile Device

    I need a New Camera

    yup I love my Canon S95. If you are willing to use some of the manual features it has amazing low light and few other good features like HDR

    A different way to cut

    I have tried this in the past with mixed results. It all depends on how the cigar is rolled as well. if the cigar is rolled with a blunt square end it works quite well if it has a rounded head then it does not work as well as if you just slice off the end then there often is not enough of a...

    2 week notice

    Congrats. Hopefully things have gotten better there as the entire line of trucks I bought are lemons so it could be a busy. I know there heavy duty stuff is pretty good but medium duty sucks. Posted via Mobile Device

    New God of Fire products 2011

    Not really at all. I find them to be much milder and more complex. Still a great cigar and I know they are expensive but if I can find a discounted jar I may have to pick one up. Posted via Mobile Device

    I think this is great. I have found that the sponsor that get the most out of the site are those that are active here or staff or clients active here. I think this will be a great fit.

    Opus X or CC?

    I love both. I smoke a few opus and a few CC's most weeks. They are more of an apples to oranges comparison. There is no CC that compares to an opus in terms of pure power. As much as I love opus very few will compete with the complexity of an aged CC. I find opus to be one of the best...

    Davidoff 100 Year Robusto

    I agree great story and great review. I wish I could get past the taint in Davidoff cigars but at least I know they are not for me. Guess I have made that clear enough in the past to have had I nrought up twice in the review. :( Posted via Mobile Device

    Roach-klip: Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial Limited Edition Natural

    Another great review. It is not so much the spice that excites me here as the underlying creamyness. I look forward to seeing how thes will age as that with the toned down spice could make for an amazing smoke. Posted via Mobile Device

    Roach-klip: Davidoff Chateau Margaux

    Love the Chateau series. One of my all time favourites. If they have been stored well they are outta this world. Posted via Mobile Device
