  • 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.

Inconsistency in cigars.

The RP fusionMM has been one of my favorites but the last one was rolled way to tight. My humidity is always dead on at 65% so that's not the issue. Has anyone else had this issue with the Fusion line?

I have a friend who is in to those and he has said the same thing, he had a wrapper issue with most of his. I have found most Rocky's to be hit and miss personally, except for the CT's which seem to always be good.

Get your hands on a draw poker. Run it through once or twice & your smoke will draw perfectly. Save two sticks with your draw poker & it's already paid for itself.

Remember that we are smoking a hand made product. There will be variances from one cigar to another, and from one roller to another. If these smokes have been good to you for a year and you are just catching your first tight draw, then you're on a pretty good streak there.

I smoke a lot of RPs and find them to be quite consistent and well constructed. I've only had a couple poor burns or wrapper issues.

That being said, I've only smoked one MM, but it smoked just fine.

Those cigar pokers work very well. Was smoking a cohiba red dot that was a little tight. Ran the poker through and really enjoyed the smoke. Get one. They can't be all gone. Do some searching
