• 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.

    The cigars are a nice gesture on your part but please don't put my name in the drawing. It was for a good cause and I'm sure Karma will eventualy come back around my way should I find myself in need one day.

    Humidity - Rise or Fall?

    Humidity usually falls from top to bottom. In a small desktop humidor it probably doesn't matter much where you place your humidification device. If you have a cabinet, I'd probably spread it around. I currently use a Trivoli Cab. In the box storage area, I have a Cigar Oasis Plus in the...

    Real Box or Not?

    1) Cuban cigars never come in glass top boxes. 2) With the exception of Flor de Cano, they never come in cellophane either. 3) The bottom of the box looks stamped. Real wood boxes are branded, not inked. 4) There is no such thing as "Cuba Selectos"

    Real Box or Not?

    The box is definately, without question a real box. The cigars are real cigars. They aren't Cuban.

    Do you smoke in your house?

    I don't smoke in my house either as it would bother my wife. We came to an agreement when I started getting serious about cigars...she doesn't say anything to me about smoking them as long as I do it outside of the house.
