  • 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.

My cousins are going to Cuba next week and I wanted to get 2 cigars from Cuba. We can get all sorts of Cuban cigars here in the UK (I have 2 famous cigar shops 5 minutes walk from my work), but I wanted something special 2 smokes maybe $100 to spend?

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Rum. Cuban rum. No. Yes. Maybe some regional only releases. Someone with more knowledge will surely chime in.

Cuba is low on many sought after cigars right now.(new releases, Cuba REs) Farm rolled quality is way down as well. (Rollers are getting less superior tobacco lately to work with) most quality cigars of big names. Cohiba, higher end upmann, Trini, Htf Partagas. Are also rare. Id stick to your UK shops to be honest. (Unless you want a box of standard reg production cheapies that are slightly cheaper on the island compared to UK prices.)

Wow that is pretty sad to hear, I was planning a trip there this summer as a pilgrimage!
Thanks for the info.
