  • 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.

    Pipe story and other do's and don't s

    you can rub them up, and load them like shag. you can cut them up, which is referred to as "cube cut". or you can just fold that shit up and stuff it in, which is referred to as... wait for it... "the fold and stuff method". o)

    memorial day 2014

    looks like i am having some kids over sunday, some grilling and probably smoking. my boys are mostly pipers, so probably a couple bowls on the back patio, or possibly adma's box of regios reserva (you're still an ass, sir). figured, the dia de los muertos vibe fits with memorial day, so at...

    so, first holiday weekend of the season, kids! who's got what lined up? what kind of trips, what kind of meals, and what smokes you got lined up for the holiday? and also, who has to work it? i know all about rocking the holidays, so you can bit a little commiseration here, even while you...

    Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

    so my day went sideways at 7AM when one of my closers tried to call in. i was the only relevant fix. so.., f#@ked off to the comic shop and did the bank errand over an AVO lounge i got in a four pack. i might be getting to like AVO: then, after a little lunch and some chit chat with the...

    Pipe story and other do's and don't s

    clint and grrrr have this completely right. the charring light is where it's at: it's like using a torch to just toast the foot of a cigar to just under a glow, then using a soft flame to finish the light, and all of a sudden you got no burn issues with your cigar. try to get everything...

    if you are keeping whole boxes, long term, and can't fit them in your wino, but have no space for a cooler, what about baggies? i have kept a box for over eight months, sealed with a boveda, inside three gallon freezer grade zip top bags (truth be told i lost the thing, long story). worked...

    100,000 barrels behind demand.

    oh, no, the secondary market can go eat a male reproductive organ. i'm with you of that. my good shit goes to people who drink it, period. i work too hard for my neighborhood to waste small releases on sharks and leeches. but i think there is too much focus on too few brands, and that north...

    Someone please market a real active humidification system that is practical!

    don't disagree with you, but it is a kinda narrow market. cigar smokers, then cigar smokers who keep a stash, then cigar smokers who keep a stash large enough to need active humidification, cigar smokers with actively-humidified stashes who know enough to want more than is readily available...

    robo fresh out of the shipment. short fat kid review: starts medium-full and ends full, rich oily texture, wine-y and floral accent of very good but young nicaraguan tobaccos. reminds me of some emilio, and some viaje, but a garcia stamp on it, and yet it had textural notes that make it at...

    Opus X Age?

    yeah, with fuente, your only bet is to either know the retailer, or just know when YOU got them. as aloha said, the cello will tell. honestly, while i believe that you get your money out of opus with time, i have burned and enjoyed WAAAY too many freshies to not at least suggest burning them...
