• 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.

    Aging Cigars...When to smoke them?

    It is a very subjective thing. I know many people that do not enjoy aged cigars as they are too mild for the powerhouse smoker. Depending on my mood that can be me as well. I have smoked some 80 year old clear havanas that were wonderfull, no real body to speak of put plently of flavour. The...

    Flyin Pig review

    I had one that didn't get too hot but a buddy of mine smoking at the same time from the same box did have issues. I am hoping some time will help these out. In the end it was a different but enjoyable experience for me but had many of the same issues you did with it. Posted via Mobile Device

    Gran Reserva

    We did it as an event. The owner of the store didn't think that we would sell the full box so he brought it in and made an event out of it. Dinner and the cigar were $125. 16 people in a small venue so we could bring our own booze and relax and visit was great. For a good night out it wasn't...

    Gran Reserva

    Ok I must admit that wasn't my nub but a buddies who is much more talented then I am at it. For a score I would give it a 95. It might have scored better if I hadn't smoked the monte on the weekend. There was just something that little extra special with the vintage cigar. But this was the best...

    Gran Reserva

    So I finally tried a gran reserva on monday. I don't do reviews well but figured a picture of one of the nubs from the night might give you a clue as to how it was recieved.

    Ever age a cigars and be REALLY disappointed ?

    Well the hoyo was probably the mildest of all of them so doesn't really surpeise me. The other thing to think of is that I actually believe aging goes cylces and they may improve with more age. They won't gain in body but the flavour may yet improve. And again it is all personal preferance as...
