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.

IIRC, what Steve said was they have a set dollar amount they shoot for, not like a percentage, that they want to make on each stick. So like if stick "a" cost $5 to make, they sell it for $7. If stick "b costs $11 to make, they sell it for $13.
I would think in any case lower production numbers would likely reduce profitability, even if the margin were higher, since they're selling so few.
Then again, I could be wrong. Have been before!
Loved the few Herrera Esteli's I've smoked. Interestingly enough, was gifted a thicker (56+ ring guage) one at the Little Puff from Willy and thats been my favorite one so far. Not a power bomb by any means but amazing aroma and nice flavors throughout. This is one line that I"m really anticipating. Have fun to everyone that makes it to the event. G1
Yes. It will be extremely limited just like the Ratzilla release was. I've heard that they are limiting it to one 5er per person (like the Zilla)....and are not doing phone/internet orders. Must be present to purchase.

Some pretty cool cigars have come out of the LE market. I actually like the idea of moving away from mass produced sticks into small batches. I have bought many small batch of what at the time was considered boutique cigars. Some were good and some were incredible. Since tobacco is an annual growth thing, I never expect the same profile year after year anyway. You can blend so much but mother nature is going to have her way with you eventually. That is why I always buy boxes. That way I am a little versus very sad when you cannot get a certain stick anymore.
