  • 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.

    Seasoning Humidor

    Thanks for all your help, but this humidor will be nothing but an expensive paperweight. I went to load it up last night, and mold was already there to greet me. Here are some photos. I seasoned the box with the shelf inside. There was a glass dessert bowl with a soaked washcloth in it...

    Seasoning Humidor

    Checked last night. Not going above 66f/72rh. Everything is perfect in the tupperdors.... should I risk it by making the transfer back to the humi?

    Seasoning Humidor

    Just over 2 weeks, and it is reading 68-70RH with a wet washcloth on the bottom in a bowl, and some water in a small bowl up top. This is after having sealed the top window as best I could. Wondering if it should be higher at this point, and if it should, am I still leaking.... What a pain!

    They just started carrying BLVD not too far from where I live. I can't believe I've waiting this long to try the Bully! Porter, but it is excellent!

    Punch Advertisement

    Does anyone remember (and can find) the old ad for Punch cigars with Wayne Knight in it from the mid-90's? Wayne Knight played Newman on Seinfeld. I can't find this image anywhere (long story why). He was in the classic ad with the jester shadow.

    Anyone tried the chocolate? Sounds weird to me, but seems to be popular for Blvd.

    Best Cutters?

    Xi2...but it fell out of my pocket and burst into pieces. It's sitting in an envelope waiting to be sent to KC for repair. For the most part, it's done well in the last 3 years or so since I've had it. *also came with Cohiba gift set

    Boulevard Beer

    I enjoy the unfiltered wheat, pale ale, and pilsner (amongst others), however I'm looking forward to trying The Sixth Glass.

    Partagas Series D No. 4

    How long after receiving a box of PSD4s do you recommend that I wait to smoke them? I know I could sample one ROTT, but why waste? They went right into a humidified box, and are already sitting at a steady 64-65%RH. Debating if I should let them chill for a few weeks or a few months..

    Any other lovers of the KC brewery? http://www.boulevard.com/ I have much trouble finding it in my neck of the woods, but I LOVE it.

    Seasoning Humidor

    If the flashlight is just lying inside, you don't really see that light coming through. I put the water in just last night, so I won't know anything for at least a week. Unfortunately, I cannot seal the hygro in because it's designed in such a way that it has to be removed every time you...
