  • 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.

    100,000 barrels behind demand.

    good question. BT/sazerac has a HUGE vested interest in maintaining cred, as they hold like, almost all the pimp shit right now; antique, pappy, taylor, and even blantons, elmer, and eagle are now for me, as a retailer IN DAMN KENTUCKY, allocated items, and not something i can just order up...

    What's in your bowl today

    clint, how do you like the ranger? i kept looking at those, there is something that both draws me in, and pushes me away.. actually kinda felt that i should be able to pick one up at ikea, if that makes sense? like a "yup, this is modern design, deal!" sort of aestetic.

    Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

    insomnia and a stupid detail hectic day at work, but a little HdM from mojo, and a little storm rolling in, is doing wonders for the mind. o) also, picked up a MF sampler just for the tray, which is pretty damn sweet! also, y'know, a couple extra MF in the stash.

    Problems with Padron sampler boxes sent through the mail?

    FWIW i have always known padron (above their thousands) to be fragile as shit. also ususally burn past major damage with no issues. but the vendor should well be able to do something about that.

    Fountain Pens?

    brent, we spend an inordinant ammount of brain and emotional space on aesthetics; something that is only a taste, a smell, a texture. it ain't that far of a reach from our beloved cigars, to booze (or other drinks, like coffee!), pens, knives, watches, shaving... elevating a profane thing into...

    What's in your bowl today

    yeah, this. it is a breed AND preparation method of tobacco. kinda like varietals of wine? send me an addy, i may be able to find some perique in my stash! o)

    What's in your bowl today

    THAT is what makes perique sexy. o) IIRC solani silver has fire-cured (or flue cured) burley, which can give some pepper. and some VAs have a light pepperiness as well. but perique is where it's at if you want pepper. and some raisin-y sweetness. and pop! EDIT: ninjas! ninjas everywhere! o)
