• 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.

    Things that Make Me Feel Old

    I heard on the radio this morning that kids born in the year 2000 are now graduating high school. Yep. I've got one born in 2000 that just walked. And I feel ya on that sneeze - I just recently put my back out of commission for an afternoon. My crime? Wiping a spill off the dining room table.

    Howdy from GA!

    Howdy neighbor, and welcome from Alabama! Great to have you here! I'm kind of a noob - both to the site and to the hobby - so I'm still figuring out what I like, but having lots of fun in the process. There's lots of friendly people here, and lots of knowledge to be shared.

    Hello from the tobacco state: NORTH CAROLINA...

    Welcome from Alabama! What part of the wine industry were you in? I've been a professional chef and semi-trained Sommelier for awhile, wondering if our paths have ever crossed?

    Dr Nathanw13's Horrible 'What do I like?' Sing-A-Long Thread

    Gran Habano Corojo #5 Rothschild (4.5 x 50, HON) GH seems to be a good 'go to' smoke for me. I've only had a few out of the bundle sampler yet, but all have been tasty and close to what I'm calling 'my taste' for now. The wrapper smelled lightly nutty and a little earthy. Easy raw pull after...

    Dr Nathanw13's Horrible 'What do I like?' Sing-A-Long Thread

    I haven't yet, but it's on my list of things to try. I think once I've smoked my humidor down a bit I'll throw some infused in there and give them a go. Any names you recommend? Nubs are the standouts right now as far as I can see.

    Dr Nathanw13's Horrible 'What do I like?' Sing-A-Long Thread

    Sam Leccia White Corona 4 X 46 The night is saved! This little powerhouse delivered on everything the Soledad promised, and more. The cream, the coffee, some added earthy notes. It was packed with flavor from the get go. I got some citrus from the first inch, which was a really nice surprise. I...

    Soledad Churchill and Sam Leccia White Corona from @mjones9630 - a dud and a dandy! The White really hit the spot!

    Dr Nathanw13's Horrible 'What do I like?' Sing-A-Long Thread

    Soledad Churchill 7 X 50 Had my first real disappointment here. The beautiful dark wrapper smelled lightly sweet, with a hint of coffee. The unlit pull was very weak, but I got a little of that coffee from it. It lit up fairly well, and the first third was full of everything that the smell...

    I'm going to try and review every new cigar I smoke here, and I figure there's no point littering up the forums with a new thread every time I smoke a new stick. So this is my review thread. Feel free to comment here with any of your own tasting notes after I've reviewed one - I value all of...

    Unless I'm missing something, it's just called 'After Dinner'. Listing here at Famous Smokes.

    Review - Punch After Dinner

    Punch After Dinner 7 1/4 X 45 Enjoyed this with Rum over ice. Light leathery notes on the unlit pull, slightly sweet wrapper. First few draws came in really strong with the earthy notes. This gave way to a rich nutty/earthy mix, with what I'd call a 'sweet oats' flavor in the mix. Late...

    Punch After Dinner. Good smoke; earthy, nutty. A little sweet. Would smoke again. I really have to get better at getting pics!

    I've been hit! I've been hit!

    I may do that, but I also considered having her try the Joya Red or the Leccia White, purely to let her start with a smaller cigar. Thoughts on those?

    I've been hit! I've been hit!

    Nope. Even had to go to the post office to pick 'em up. True story.
