I got them shipped from the Netherlands! After using Google Translator, tracking on a funky website, and a week later, they're finally here!!! They are smaller than what I expected. I took a pic with a FFP for comparison.

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 got my Undercrown Flying Pigs!!!!

good on you, man! hope you find them worth the chase (if you can bring yourself to burn one!). enjoy them! o)
Sweet enjoy those!
I am genuinely surprised by how many folks went through all the trouble of buying these from the Netherlands. And had to pay European prices and shipping too... wow, now I am going to have JD beating on us to make them a product for US release. And then the price point will have to be much higher than is desired for UC and we will then get beat up for making UC too expensive. <sigh>
They are the exact same vitola as the original Flying Pigs.
Dayento: I really hope you enjoy the cigars because you went way out of your way to get them. Very tough "expectation" hump for any cigar to clear...

Steve, you have a lot of very loyal, dedicated fans. And when we hear there's a very limited, regional exclusive Flying Pig? Yeah, we'll go through a lot to get one or two! That being said, my expectations for the cigar are not that it's going to be worth the hassle exactly. More that it's going to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I don't think any of us are going to be crushed if it isn't the world's best cigar, but we'll all be happy we got to experience something in an unusual vitola of very limited nature from you guys!
People chase down regional CC's from all around the world. You should have expected us to chase down the best regional NC cigars from around the world as well.
Wow I'm honored that the President of the best cigar label dropped in on my tread! But in all seriousness, if Drew Estate drops anything, anywhere true BOTL are going to get them. Just worry about putting out a great product and we'll worry about scooping them up.

Nice!
Thanks David! I got mine in yesterday from your shipment! I am saving it along with the rest of my pigs for a special day =)
