• 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.

    Great cigars you just don't like

    Rocky Patel Vintage '92. It was a lonsdale. Okay, kinda boring. The "Edge" Missile Maduro that shuckins gifted me was way better and a lot more interesting.

    Sharks

    And the locals! (Myself included :crytears:) Well, I only bought one to try, and if it floors me and I feel like spending, I'll track some more down from another source...maybe CWS if he goes ahead and gets that box. :stretchgr

    Sharks

    Yeah, I think that's a good deal. At Casa Fuente here the Añejo Sharks are about $24.00/stick. The box price quoted to you makes the sticks half that price each. Not only that, Casa Fuente won't sell anybody any boxes (customers are limited to 2 sticks per day "due to high demand," the guy...

    Need help deciding on a lunchtime smoke...

    Ditto on the Angeles. I haven't had the Hemingway or Piranha, but the Angeles should be a 45 - 50 minute smoke (I seem to take twice as long to smoke as most people, and it takes me about an hour and a half to get through it).

    The Thanksgiving Weekend "Smoke your Rare Smoke" thread

    Forbidden X Cigar in a Bottle aka "Royal 8"––because it's the hardest to find cigar I've got (not to mention the most expensive), because I've always been curious about Forbidden X's, and because I've been meaning to smoke it for a couple of weeks now.

    The "1 left..." Factor!

    Oooh, Thanksgiving Day potlatch! Great idea. I'll try my best to sneak in a smoke amidst the cooking, but if I can swing it I will! What do you say, Brooks? Does a Forbidden X Cigar in the Bottle count? Been letting this sit for a couple weeks now, and I was gonna smoke it next week anyway.

    What is your rarest cigar?

    Oh yeah, I forgot––I've also got an Opus X Boa Constrictor and a Behike. :nodlaugh: Yeah right. On another note, my short list seems, on second thought, pretty odd: in terms of production number, the SW Maduros are rare, but some of us here have a few (I bought some from...

    What is your rarest cigar?

    Cool thread. Three of my rarest are: * the Tatuaje Reserva SW Maduro * the Forbidden X Cigar in the Bottle aka "FFOX Royal 8" * a few of the Cohiba Gran Reservas that are on their way (they're my Christmas presents to myself this year)....

    Taboo cigars

    Good to know. I'll be trying them out soon––just looked at their website and saw how cheap their Padróns are!

    Caipirinhas

    I've only made cachaças once, and it was with the Aguardiente Pitu. It was good, and from what I can remember a pretty good value, too.
