  • 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.

Event: Cain & Kegerator Event

Where: Empire Cigars, Raleigh, NC

When: Friday, August 21, 2009 - 4:00PM - 9:00PM


"Well gang, we've tasted lots of great cigars that were new at the show, but the winner by far is the new Cain from Sammy Leccia. This all ligero flavor bomb will knock you on your butt!!!

Once you taste it, it will be hard to smoke anything else. The price point of $6.00 - $8.00 makes it that much better. We will debut the cigar this Friday during the Kegerator event. We were able to get 18 boxes of these beauties and I expect they will fly out of here.

Word is that 10,000 boxes sold at the show. Nate will be giving away lots of great stuff so I expect we will have a blast. Food and adult libations will be served, so we'll see you Friday 4-9 Pm. Some lucky guy (or gal) will go home with a kegerator for the partying pleasure!!!!!!"

Did they have them at your event last Friday?

If so, did you get to try both versions....Habano and Maduro?

i did in fact talk sam out of a habano. he had no maduros with him, or i would have begged him for one!

interesting cigar, i'll give it that, much like the t110, lots of power, good tasting, without the pain of ligero! and the burn issues are barely contained, or maybe it was just my luck - but it was very resistant to lighting and keeping a great burn.
