  • 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.

    CAO Vision - Prana

    I'm afraid letting it sit might not do a thing although I wish you better luck. While it isn't fair to judge a cigar by smoking only one example, it isn't worth my time or money to sample more. More for the rest of you....

    CAO Vision - Prana

    I had to meet a friend in Philly yesterday but he got caught up in traffic. So since I had some time to kill, I figured I'd stop by Holt's for a cigar. I knew I should have brought my cigar caddy with my own smokes :sadstare: Anyway, inside Holt's I went and perused the merchandise. In the...

    '97 Psd#4

    The last of my box.....fitting for a review. if only words could properly describe this cigar. Silky smooth colorado wrapper that clearly shows sign of tender care. Pre-light aroma teases the nostrils with a floral bouquet lighlty sprinkled with black pepper. I knew this one was gonna be a...

    VSG Round??

    Find OR VSG's in a B&M? Man, I'd love to see the stash that B&M has....Oh wait I have, HOLT's! I smoked the OR's with a bud a while back...he was given his cabs directly from Fuente and Levin when the VSG's first came out. While I felt honored to share the cigar,it was simply missing that...

    VSG Round??

    The original release VSG's were round. I've smoked a few after all these years. Not impressed and they've definitely lost their edge.

    Draper's 120th Anniversary Cabaiguan

    WC Drapers in DC celebrated their 120th year in the cigar retail business. For that momentous occasion, they had La Aurora roll a special preferido size using the 100 Anos blend and they also had Pete Johnson roll a special size in their Cabaiguan line-up. I purchased both but only had the time...

    Macobas with Mold? (pics)

    That is definitely not tooth....tooth are grains (bumps) on the wrapper and are not white in color. Totth is the color of the wrapper which occurs from the tobacco plants being in the sun longer. Hard to say from the pics whether that's mold or plume but take waterboy's advice. If it's...

    Humidor Help

    Do not season a humi for the first time with beads inside. You want the humi to absord as much humidity as possible so simply leave a shallow dish or shotglass with distilled water inside the humi for a week or so. The dryness of the humi will dictate how long that will be. Once your CALIBRATED...
