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.

I've had the AJ 2nds a few times. They are a gamble. Sometimes even when you order the same size the end result is different than the last. 75 percent of the time they smoke great. The other 25% are either okay or good in my opinion. Totally a value and I would recommend to another $ minded BOTL. I hate full price, even when I buy banded.
Who has those?
The last time I had then was the core maduro, but its been a while.
@Lomey
Did they have a letter code when your ordered them? Iirc, they usually have either an H,M,D or similar. You're probably spot on, though.
@happyidiot
Break those puppies open and try them? They could be a number of cigars. Lezanstar is right, measure those sticks. That's always my first step, then smoke one.

Yes, they had a H next to them.
Aww damnit. The semi annual 2nds sale is right now.. There goes my extra monies...
Yes. That evil one. I can't get over how cheap some of these are. Like the EPCs and the PDRs...
I'm already in the "forbidden" overflow storage but i really want to grab a couple of bundles. The Nic Boutique (AJ) and try the Ligero Laced.
Does anyone smell gas?
What are the details of proposed trade/pass? I have no knowledge of these things.
Did one earlier it was a blast. U say so it again ramza
Well, I'll send you about ten sticks you don't have and you send me some. Anyone interested please PM me your addy.
Smoked the Nic Botique Lancero, which was actually more of a corona gorda. It's short filler, so not a true "second". My guess would be that it is made up of remaining short filler from one or more of these AJ Fernandez blends:

Assuming that the Nic Boutiques are ONLY AJF. While I think they rolled him into the NBs, I don't think they're the only blender.
Also, how do you know it was short filler? Did you unwrap one? (I do that too, if you did).
