• 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.

    Favorite sub $30 whiskey

    The first awesome pairing I found was with 4 Rose's Small Batch and a homeroll of Mata fina, piloto cubano seco, and Dominican ligero. That 4 Rose's made all the difference.

    Home rolling is a blast! After you figure out what you like, you get to make small tweaks depending on what you are looking for as you roll, I really enjoy the option to adjust every aspect of the cigar as I roll.

    Good morning and good night. I'll be smoking this one on the way to work. It's a combo of T13 viso, Cibao Valley Abajo seco, a bit of Honduran filler and wrapped in Ecuadorian seco.

    Thank you, I'm northwest of Charlotte. Not much to impact here. Couple of downed trees, some extra work prep, but all is good here. The guys to the east, they have a different story to tell for sure.

    @TheReMixologist makes very artful smokes, very well crafted. Mine are much more simple, but still tasty.:cigar:

    Cigars to tight

    You have to make sure you didn't accidentally twist the fillers while applying the binder too...that may not be the issue but it's worth mentioning so you can check as you bind. Good luck, Jim
