• 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.

    Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

    Meh.......an adjective all too common when coupled with CAO

    Show/List your latest NC Purchase

    That Box you have is going to be worth $400 if not more!!! Awesome score...try and resist smoking too many of those 2012 Cojonus as they will blow you away in a year!!! Agreed.......runner up to the HL Maduro IMO, that is one of my all-time top five let alone Illusione.

    #9 vs. Undercrown vs. T52

    I'm a maduro whore so #9, UC, and T52......I would take any of the three and like other brothers have said, I'm really enjoying the complexity and flavor profile of the UC robusto's!

    EPC Can Do No Wrong...

    Agreed.....same can't be said about La Gloria Cubana, which is a shame!

    Digital Hydrometer question

    Use beads and digitals are all but useless.......I have a lbs. of HF's in my cooler, I have added distilled water only once in the past year and both digitals read 65/65........to answer your post, I have never calibrated them other than initial.

    Roach-klip: Tatuaje Cojonu 2012 Sumatra

    I can't keep track anymore, every month something "special" or "limited" is produced at exhorbitant prices because of their exclusivity only to be available a year later at a significant discount! I think Pete is producing 2012 boxes which will most definitely not sell out but will most...

    Tatuaje ‘Celebracion de Cinco'

    Resist the hype machine and smoke something attainable like a Padron Anny or CC to celebrate your special day!!! Congrats!

    Roach-klip: Tatuaje T114

    I absolutely loved the last Fausto Avion I smoked, and will be buying more......these look delicious but again, I'm not an LE chaser and resist the hype machine at all costs! Great review!!!

    Roach-klip: Tatuaje Cojonu 2012 Sumatra

    Given that you can still get 03,06,09's I will wait on these for a price drop and avoid the LE hype machine. The 09's are my favorite so far......thanks for the review!

    AF Opus X Belicoso "Power Ranger"

    It's been roughly a year since my last Opus review, and the weather was decent enough that I decided to revisit the said Ranger. Aged a year in 65% cooler. Pulled the footer off and the wrapper split a little, but nothing too troublesome. Initial flavors of pepper, barnyard, maybe a little...
