  • 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.

    Viaje Satori LE 2012

    I agree with hot lips. I bought a box of Satori robos last year and the first 10 were better than the remainder...all good, but the first few had better flavor, imo If you ever buy a box of Satori, check out the aroma when you first crack the seal...it's intense! Tobacco sweet and oily :). I...

    New Oliva Cigar

    These are pricey, but I think they are worthy of the coin. They are about the same as Padron Anniversaries. The #4 is 8 bucks and about the size of a Principe. These are also very firm and uniform in construction very similar to the Padrons. My initial impression of the Melanio is that it's an...

    New Oliva Cigar

    I'm smoking the Melanio #4 right now. It's great, rott, very smooth and I'm getting a lot of different nuances in the smoke. It looks like a box-pressed petit robo/corona mix. Really great looking cigar and a perfect size for the colder weather upcoming. I think I need another box :)

    Tat anarchy 2

    I'm up for a box. Loved the first one. It's amazing how many great (or potentially great) cigars are being released. Makes your head spin trying to keep up with a wish list.

    Viaje 5th Anniversary

    So true. I found an unopened box of Viaje Fifty Fifty corona in the bottom of my cooler about a week ago. Forgot all about them for two years. Fantastic cigar! I'll never smoke another Viaje without age. And since I seem to be unable to age cigars unless I forget I have them...I guess I'll never...

    "The Best Player Ever"

    I agree to some extent. However, the quality of the competition in pro golf changes through time. I remember hearing Nicklaus comment that Tiger Woods is (was) clearly better than his contemporaries, whereas Nicklaus never thought of himself that way. Would Tiger have won 14 majors if he had...

    Anyone Man Enough ?

    I don't know you, Tom, but I know several people who do. If you like them, they are likely worthy. I might just grab some.

    That's an easy one, bro. The best cigar ever is usually the one I'm smoking at the moment :)

    "The Best Player Ever"

    I have no respect for this oft-used term in sports. It seems that some network hack or buddy always throws this term out there. It means nothing to me. There is no fair way to compare players from different times , regardless of the sport. I do subscribe to the idea that some athletes are the...

    Tatuaje TAA 2012

    I think these will be around for a couple of weeks for sure. The 2011 was a big hit and now people (many of whom could not get the 2011) will want these even more. I don't think it will be like a PJ Monster release where people threaten each other with box cutters, but if you want them, you...

    Liga Privada #9, Corona Doble

    Nice job on your review :) I smoke only the robustos, but I think I'll give the doble a spin.

    How do you handle a cigar mooch ?

    It sounds to me like your friend is taking your generosity for granted. But only you know for sure what the dynamics are in your relationship with him. When you bbq, does he bring the food?

    Ever find something you forgot about?

    Cool finds. Makes me wanna pack some shit away just so I can find it later :) Many years ago after my divorce I moved out of the house and the following year I found 10 $100 bills in a DVD case. I don't remember stashing it, so maybe my ex-wife did! LOL
