• 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.

    What should I buy?

    About a year ago (or a little more) I bought a box of Rafael Gonzales Panatellas which are now gone. I seem to remember liking them, not one of my favorites but they were good. I'll have to try the Coronas Extras also.

    What should I buy?

    Alright I had the Acid Kuba Kuba tonight and while I didnt hate the flavor (wasnt extremely fond of it either), it is definatly too strong for my tastes. I guess I need to find a good medium around the Fonseca but not as strong as the Kuba Kuba. I didn't get much past half of the cigar and I...

    What should I buy?

    Point well taken MichiganM. I guess I should have specified at least a target price range originally. I usually smoke once a week, sometimes less often, rarely a little more often, so paying more for the cigars does not bother me as much. However, it is nice to have the $3 cigars around because...

    What should I buy?

    Correct, the Montesino's I just bought were off a promotion JR Cigar was having. I'll add Fuentes to the to-try list.

    What should I buy?

    I'll have to try some of them, I guess I need to find a site that sells individual cuban cigars because my current two vendors only sell by the box. Heres a possibly obvious question: are ISOM's really THAT much better, or are most dominican, or nicaraguan, or whatever cigars (in the same...

    What should I buy?

    The cost would all depend. Generally I like to stick around $5/cigar when I'm buying a box as a max. Cohiba's are around $13/cigar by the box but then again if it wasnt for a daily smoker then I'm fine with that. I would have to say somewhere around $15/cigar (sometimes up to $20) would be my...

    Cigar Art

    Not sure if this is the right forum, but it is cigar related... Anyone know a good place to buy cigar art? I'm thinking things like posters that have cigar related pictures or cigar brand logos, etc. I am building a new rec room and think it would be cool to have a cigar theme to the place...

    new guy from Michigan

    Nice pics, I'm sold.... a humi that size would cost several hundred dollars if it was a decent one. I've already got beads on the way for my current humi but it looks like I'll be placing another order in the near future.

    new guy from Michigan

    I've never even heard of them until a day or so ago, I still don't get the purpose (a cheap humidor?), I'll have to read up on em. If they are really just a cheap humidor because they don't look fancy then I will have to get one, I'm keeping my humi at 65% and it would be nice to have another at...

    new guy from Michigan

    Thanks for the welcome, glad to see people have a sense of humor here... I had to lookup to see if there really was a Grand Rapids MN (I had no idea), I live about 20 minutes away from Grand Rapids MI. Hah you laugh but that actually happened before... not quite into flames but it got...

I don't know a whole lot yet, too bad theres not an ultimate newbie book out there but from the looks of...
