  • 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.

    Stupid Newbie question, What does 5x5 mean when talking about quanty?

    (moved from reviews to habanos forum, better fit) and, as the guys said, it is a package descriptor. for example, the iconic parti 898 is a 25ct box with rounded sided, so eight sticks fit in the top and bottom rows, and nine in the center. 5x5, it is either a square cab with five rows of...

    H. Upmann The Banker

    gotta admit, i have dug on some of altadis's recent blends. the retcon of the core h.upp is a win for my palate, and the sumum '10 return made me happy. imma be burning a few of these when time permits.

    I think I may be an official FOG

    hey, buddy. bear season. o) and, yeah, while you do see the ebb and flow over time, it can allow you to be a better guide. think back on all the guys who were able to answer a question without blinking when you first joined. now you can do that. kinda like mugen roshi from DBZ or happosai...

    August Cigar of the Month - E.P. Carrillo 5th Year Anniversary Limitada

    no harm no foul. between putting pressure on guys to find them, and putting pressure on guys to open up their stash, it is a little much. as a for example; i LOVE mu some anejo and opus, BUT for this, i would do either the magR44, the corona viva, or the 7th reserva, as anyone should be easily...

    Anybody use Lock and Lock storage??

    yeah... not a 100% certainty, but bill does have a very valid point. then again, if your needs are met by the L&L now, and you grow out of it, you can always reuse it for intended purposes later.

    Dark Lord Day 2014

    mike, i love how giddy you sound over this, man. o) i hope you have a hell of a time, and have a chance to cross paths with a few brothers en route. a couple few kids from the TN get together this weekend were speculating about it, so god willing you might see some of those kids as well...

    August Cigar of the Month - E.P. Carrillo 5th Year Anniversary Limitada

    i support the sentiment, but i think the intent of this is so that no one of us really really has to hunt. the BotL corona was WELL underproduced, and that pick immediately throws a lot of people into the secondary market, or for them to just chose not to participate.

    Compressor model wine cooler question

    to normal for you, dave. wasn't your last build out of an old gun cabinet? to top that, you would have to make a walk in out of a panic room. and call it "your bat cave". o)

    Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

    shared a round of tat 7th reserva tonight (march 12) with the boss and some guys at his country club. which would have been actually cool, had it not been a bourbon event. gently sipping and then pouring out drinks is actually pretty easy to do discretely as the evening (and drinks) go late...

    Compressor model wine cooler question

    ... and, having actually LOOKED at the pix, BUY THAT BITCH! NOW!!! it looks sharp, is almost six feet from the look, and for a hundo is a blatant theft, not a steal. even requiring a little elbow grease, it would be totally worth it. and, as if it needs saying, but we want pix when it's...

    Compressor model wine cooler question

    compressor-driven cooling units are notorious for having condensation issues, which is a bad thing when the point is to maintain humidity. also, thermoelectric will normally cool to a much higher temp; it is a rare "fridge" that will just hover at 66 Farenheit. however, do you NEED the temp...

    BOTL Gives Back - Operation Esteli, 2014

    this is some DAMN fine work, gentlemen, and i was amazed when dave and brad unveiled it at the herf (because the wilds of TN are without service, doncha'know). the most important thing: we ALL love to talk, we ALL love to give, and we ALL get really impassioned over things. next time you wanna...

    Redneck Rendezvous - Part Deux

    what? just because we had one dude who was so damn hardcore he took an hour off to re-energize through photosynthesis? that there is BAD ASS. o) caveat gala. beware apples.
