• 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.

    Anejo mold warning

    You can wipe it off if it has not invaded the head or foot. I did, and mine are great :)

    Favorite Illusione Epernay vitola?

    Trust me, bro...I don't have any either. They were great though. Imagine an Epernay with everything enhanced 30% :)

    Christmas gift cards...what to buy?

    Ok men, I need some guidance. Pops gave me a $250 American Express Gift Cert for Christmas. Needless to say...I SHALL BE BUYING CIGARS WITH IT :flying: Question: Should I buy a box of Padron 85th from Craig Mac and the fine folks at Emerson's, or should I answer my front door and buy the box...

    Favorite Illusione Epernay vitola?

    I think most of us would agree that the vitola one selects is related to the amount of smoking time available. I like the 6x46, but that may be because I like that size and, therefore, buy more of them. The Epernay is one of the best nc smokes. The original eccj was truly remarkable.

    The "Verdict" is In....

    I didn't have one last year, but smoked some in '09. The 2011 HB is great indeed. I wish the Summerfest series was as good as the Holiday Blend..

    The recent GOF Series B SG. Very good, but $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for what you get. It's a $12 cigar, but not worth $20+

    Favorite Illusione Epernay vitola?

    Gotta agree. Most of time, different vitolas of the same cigar taste the same to me. Not so with Epernay.

    Bait Fish Problem

    Is your complaint that they burn too fast? Or that they are too small? Or, is it that they have a construction problem?

    New Year's CIGAR Resolutions!

    Buy fewer "special" releases and more of the traditional favorites. Find some aged PSD4's and Shorts. Smoke same like chimney :)

    What is your New Year's Cigar?

    I just bought a box each of the new GOF. It was $424 total. I don't usually spend that much on 20 cigars, so it's gotta be one of those :)

    What am I doing wrong?

    Great advise here at botl as usual. All my smokes are mid to high 60s and the only time I have issues is when I'm smoking an LP9 and love it so much that I smoke too fast :) Get rid of the Liga Privada leaves in your humi, they don't need it (my opinion, of course). Keep it simple and keep...
