• 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.

    Pre-Castro Cigars

    I'm sure it happens on an occasional small-scale basis, but my understanding is that the Cuban gov doesn't allow export of it's raw tobacco except in the rare occasion when a torcedor does special events at LCDH's (ie. Hamlet, Taboada, etc.)... Whoever know's the truth ain't sayin either way...

    Pre-Castro Cigars

    Ditto - not sure the legal clause or source... but yes they are legal: JFK stocked up on H. Upmann Petit Coronas (his favorite) the night before signing the embargo.

    Padron 45th Maduro-It Frakin' ROCKS!

    Sounds awesome - I can't wait!!! I've been fortunate to have some of the #44's and they are some of the best cigars I've ever smoked. But tastes change, etc.... We'll see - It was the plan to light my second to last 44 sometime this week, but the planets must be properly alligned. Can't wait to...

    I aborted my first cigar today :(

    This is what I have, though I didn't get mine from Famous. http://www.famous-smoke.com/havana+draw+enhancer/item+22074?Nav=&Ne= (currently on backorder - sorry!) My only criticism is that the knurl turns dry tobacco into 'powder' - after use, blow it out from the other end before testing...
