• 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.

    HVC Vieja Cosecha Tabacos Limitados No. 1, a truly amazing cigar. I wonder why they're so hard to find. Thank you, Reinier Lorenzo! The 2/3 was unreal: Godiva with aged tobacco. '][/URL]

    Crowned Heads - La Imperiosa

    Hey, @JonHuber , care to share any thoughts or back-story on this magnificent band? The embossing is perfect. If not, not worries. :) '][/URL]

    Crowned Heads - La Imperiosa

    Absolutely! I second that. To have the good fortune of having really sharp industry people here only reinforces my consumer confidence--like a thousandfold. Plus, it's nice to know a little of what happens behind the curtain.

    Crowned Heads - La Imperiosa

    Since this thread has come back to life again, I just re-read the whole thing. But here we are now and most of us have tried La Imperiosa. I've already smoked two 6 3/8 50s with little rest. It is just a fantastic cigar. What really amazed me, after removing the band, is that the band is an...

    Any Tatuaje TAA 2014 still available?

    Call Telford's Pipe and Cigar: 415-388-0440. Last I checked they had a whole box of 2013 and 2014 TAA Tats. Not sure they'll ship though.

    Do You Ever Feel Like You Have Outgrown Your B&M

    Very, very, very well said, Derek. That really is the crux of the whole issue. My grandfather--God rest his soul--smoked only Davidoff and J.C. Newman his whole life. I'm assuming that's typical of the general cigar smoking populace. It's like most cigarette smokers who stick with the same brand...

    What vitola do you want to see?

    How about a 2016 LE Corona Gorda, Nicaraguan Puro with tobacco from those 'special cuartos anejamiento' of AGANORSA leaf!!! LOL!!! Then you would really turn us into a pack of ravenous, drooling wolves!!!

    Deep Philosophical Question... Humidors

    Thank you. I would totally agree. Kitty liter is much cheaper too. You can train it as well. Great stuff.

    Deep Philosophical Question... Humidors

    All you're really doing here is puncturing the plastic. Why this company decided to close the vents on these devices I'll never know. It could be to protect from dust, but we use them in a controlled, enclosed environment, so dust really isn't an issue. I'm not guaranteeing a change in its...

    Deep Philosophical Question... Humidors

    I like the hydrosets for accuracy. Acu Rites I use for little Tupperdors. If you take a box cutter and slice open the vents, it might be more accurate.

    Yes. Two trays will just fit.

    Warped Lirio Rojo

    I've been a huge fan of Aganorsa tobacco since first trying Casa Fernandez Arsenio line a few years ago. Needless to say, I'm really looking forward to trying a Warped Futuro. Any timetable when these will be available at retailers?

    What CC you smoking?

    It had 14 months on it. Smoked beautifully, caramel, saltiness, twang. Really enjoyed it.
