  • 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 the next few weekends 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.

    The Last Third...

    Any more details you can provide might help. Assuming you are puffing at about 1 puff per minute (not much more), you have pretty much covered smoking at the right pace. Is this at all more prevalent with specific types/origin of cigars, or just in general? What humidity level are you keeping...

    Sounds like a blast. "Just Tacos", I'd be there just for the food, lol.

    Tatuaje Black Label Petit Lancero

    I really wasn't referring to this specific instance, but the overall idea. Again, sorry for pulling this off topic. I enjoyed the OR petit lancero I had and plan on picking up a box of these as soon as funds allow. Of course I'm a huge fan of lanceros, so no surprise there.

    The Last Third...

    If this is something happening with a variety of smokes I would guess at a humidity issue. Could be construction, but again, if it's happening with all of our smokes regardless of manufacturer, origin of tobacco, etc., that would be some really bad luck. Do you purge at all? Sometimes that...

    Tatuaje Black Label Petit Lancero

    Actually I do my best not to hate, it's usually a waste of time. Sorry if my statement rubbed you the wrong way. :dunno: As I see it, part of what S&S provides is access to information before it is common knowledge. Someone copying and pasting that willy-nilly (not to say that was done here)...

    Tatuaje Black Label Petit Lancero

    This was just the initial shipment as I understand it. There is a larger shipment headed out to stores soon.

    Tatuaje Black Label Petit Lancero

    Free to do what you want, and having some integrity are two different things. That being said, I don't have a problem with what JDog posted. It was information that was really already out there.

    Cuban Eats in Your Locale

    Multiple places around here. Probably the best overall food is Andy's by the Bay, a little cafeteria-style place tucked back in an industrial area near work. Best damn pork and black beans and rice in the world. Great cuban sandwiches as well.

    Help Needed!

    You have a calibrated hygro, right? First things first, it will probably be easier if you put everything into a single tupperware container. Otherwise you are just multiplying your work. Unless you feel there is a specific reason to keep certain cigars seperated from others. Put the hygro in...

    Humidor Vs. Wineador

    www.heartfeltindustries.com or www.hcmcigarbeads.com To answer the OP question, pretty much what Mike said above. A humidor the size of most wine'idors is much more expensive. However, the biggest advantage of a wine'idor is for those in hotter climates in that it can control temperature...

    Do you want to live forever?

    Skipping over the realities, I like the idea. Probably why I dig vampire stories. Obviously, there are problems if everyone gets to live forever.
