• 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.

    Can a cigar be resurrected?

    Hardly a lost cause! They just need a little TLC & they will be fine! Some guys may have more scientific methods, but me, I'd put another packet in, wait a week & light one up to see how they are doing. Don't put the pack directly on the cigars unless they are in cello, otherwise you may end up...

    So Far So Good

    There are so many different types & blends - I think it takes a while to develope a good sense of what you like. Personally, I tend to enjoy Vapers (Virginia & Perique) & English blends (Vaper + Latakia/orientals) the most. Some of my current favorites are Esoterica 'Penzance', McConnell...

    Thank you to all BOTL's

    Nice hit Stife! And to the original sentiment: my thoughts exactly! That's why this place has become the only place I frequent - it's home.

    La Traviata Review

    Nice pics & good 'to the point' review! These seem to need a bit of time to 'settle' & if the draw is good, I really enjoy this stick. Of the 5 or 6 I've had - half of them were very good, the other half either had draw issue or tasted young & bitter. A few months sitting on the shelves & I'll...

    Tatuaje and aging...

    My experience is that the Reds, Browns (and all the rest) need a minimum of 3 months rest if you're box is new. I don't honestly think either of the Tatuaje lines change dramatically with age - though I have had only limited experience with attempting to age either (they just don't last in my...

    Interest in BOTL cookbook?

    I'm in for one just because it would benefit the board. But I have to wonder what the theme or 'catagory/type' of cookbook it would be? With so many different regions, styles, influences, tastes & diets - what would be the common 'thread' (pun intended) between all the recipes? Pehaps a best...

    Damn J, that's one heck of a line-up! Today I had a Padron Anniversary (from CRA pack), JFR CG, Ambos Mundos #1 toro, and finished off the day with a Ramon Allones Celestial Finos - which was wonderfull by the way.

    Cain F, Anyone?

    Definitely pick some up if you run across them - it's a good flavorfull & strong smoke. But I wouldn't go nuts trying to find them - it's a good $5-6 smoke.
