  • 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 time 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.

Heartbraking--not for the weak stomach!

Nate, for some reason I have had wrapper problems with the OG's too. I haven't ever received any that were cracked but every once in a while I be smoking one and hear a crack. Sure enough the wrapper will have split on me while I am smoking it. Good news is they still smoke fine.

You know it is funny you say this as well b/c I have never had this happen on any other smoke...I have about 15 or so of these left and the 3-4 I have smoked make this popping cracking sound and I have had 1 of the 4 wrapper crack, not all the way up, but crack none the less...they are good though!

nope. The only option is to use some cigar glue/pectin to try to adhese the wrapper together...but in the case of the two that blew up straight through the binder, it just can't be mended. It may still be smokable--and attempt will certianly be made.
