  • 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.

    What kind of flavors does it add? How much do you add? You must have to dry it a good bit before using it?

    Yep, damp stops the fire. If your in a hurry, the microwave drys out the cigar in a matter of seconds.(don't forget to blow out the moisture after each 9 second blast) I've taken cigars that I thought were dry after a month of dry boxing and have been amazed how much water was still hiding in...

    My technique for paper molding hand rolls

    My technique for paper molding hand rolls

    That's plenty big. It's easier if you'll cut the strips about 2" wide and roll at an angle. You want the paper to remain smooth and flat without any creasing or buckling. This will require that your bunch is pretty uniform throughout. Watch out, because you can roll it so tight it can ruin the...

    The choice might come down to... do you want a perfect product that tastes like crap or a crappy product that tastes good? If that tobacco tastes that much better then I'd sweep those scrappy pieces off the sidewalk and roll it up and smoke it.

    Though the web description says... "This is a very limited offering of only 70lbs". Like it's a one time offer.
