  • 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.

    freshie-fresh. FOR SCIENCE! o) EDIT: so, lacking the cognitive skills currently to do a useful review, let me say that these are, to me a successful follow up to a great release. i thought the first one was stronger, but the new release is starting to sneak up on me a bit, so maybe bolder...

    New box of L40's Covered in Plume!

    i really do NOT think it is pectin; fuente has recently gotten glue happy recently, i see that a lot, and it does not look like that at all. and, yes, either mineral deposits on the capa (think TAA'12) or band flakies are possibles, but it really doesn't look like that either. good ideas, but...

    Resting cigars at home vs b&m

    a lot of B&M keep their humidity higher, in deference to those who buy a small pile and do NOT have humidors at home. you keep it at like 72%RH, they are less likely to die on the casual guy. the problem is, a lot of US like a substantially lower smoking or storing RH. so, a couple few days...

    Favorite Rum?

    all of the zacapa and diplo's are hot sex. havana club is, unfortunately, a cuban release, so not easily available for the land locked. bacardi 8 is not a bad starter rum, for price per quality. most of the bacardi portfolio is just weak, but the 8 is, for about $20, a sexy anejo. and...
