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)
Had a RASS this fine morning while walking/bike riding with the kids around the lake by our house. That was the last of my first 08' box, and it was nothing short of fantastic...can't get that buttery flavor in anything else. Right now a Bolivar Gold Medal while watching the Red Wings & Sharks... -

Flavors sticking?
Whiskey/scotch/bourbon/rye/rum/hard alcohol straight is a pallet cleanser. You might try some lemon juice in your water as well because that scrubs the mouth very well. If you are ok with eating things while you smoke, chew on a few almonds every 15-20 minutes just to help clear things up, as... -
Looking for leaf suppliers and rolling supplies
Have you thought about getting ahold of any factories down south and asking them if they either make or buy their own molds. Maybe they would sell you some molds ? I know that when I visited the Plascencia factory, they told me that they just replace the fingers in each cigar slot when they... -
What cigar do you keep around for friends?
I don't have many/any people that come to my house with any kind of decent cigar knowledge, so if they want a cigar, I always have some Don Tomas Classico's for them. I have never had a complaint from someone who has no idea about cigars with those sticks. If anyone came over to smoke with me... -
Cigars...
:blush: Can I pleat the fifth ? I actually find that if I end up inhaling some smoke sometimes, it has that effect, but for the most part I do my damnedest to not breath any smoke in at any point. On a side note, when I was younger and thought smoking was the cool thing to do (cigarettes), I... -
Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)
After watching that great OT Boston win (Go Boychuk our hometown representation), I lit up one of my Joya de Nicaragua Classico Churchill's. I acquired these at the airport in Nicaragua (can't find them in boxes here). Nice peppery stick that surprised me with the subtle flavors hidden behind... -

Changing tastes
I know what you are talming about, I have gone back to cigars that I originally smoked and could not figure out what I saw in them. I have been smoking so many different types/countries in the last 6 months, that I cannot relate to a "go to cigar" right now. I do like to transition to milder... -
New humidor options?
Just a bit of food for thought. I am currently using a larger mini-fridge. It holds upwards of 400 sticks and if you eventually get a larger one, you can use the fridge for what it was meant for. I know people here talk about wine coolers, but they are not meant to be a refrigerator for normal... -
Happy birthday Zedman05
Thanks everyone. It was a good day. The family pitched together and gave me a gift card for a new driver, I just have to go pick one out....any suggestions ? I have always liked the Nike drivers but never tried the TaylorMade's.- Zedman05

Bastard...I wish I had the time and ability to smoke that many. -
Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)
Trinidad Colonial this afternoon. The wife told me to go outside and have a cigar as it was the nicest day yet this year. I sat on the front step in the sun with the dog and had a nice relaxing smoke. -

Gotta love those moms!
That's a great present! My mom lives with us and doesn't care about the cigars as I am an adult. The cool thing was last year she bought me a La Aurora blue tube cigar ( which cost her $50 here), and I was like wow! Thanks! I did tell her not to buy me anything else from here in town unless I... -

Mega Sampler or various boxes?
I was in the same boat as you when i first joined BOTL. I was all about the quantity, but after a short time of being here, doing bombs, buying stuff on the sale thread, and general knowledge gained, you tend to start gaining enough sticks that you don't bother smoking the cheaper sticks...
