  • 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.

July 4th Lineup

We are going for a ride on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway Sat. and back home to watch the race that night. I plan on smoking one of the AF's gifted to me by Shuckins. I hope that a little over a week is enough rest after shipping! My toughest part will be trying to decide which one?

Do you have access to Cusano 18 Connecticut? My other newb recommendation at work are the Oliva Connecticut Reserves. They aren't too strong and they have great flavor.
So you think a Connie, eh? I'll have to do a little digging to see if I have one. Wait! It just hit me....a Davidoff Perfecto! Sounds perfect.

At his age of 58, I've finally talked my dad into trying a cigar! He asked that I not "waste the good stuff" on him. What do you guys suggest for a 58-year-old newbie?

AF Double Chateau Natural.... good reasonably priced cigar.
(Cigarsdirect.com has boxes of 20 on sale for $75.) :glassesgr

That Davidoff would be a great choice.....Ashton White Label would be a very good choice too.

I just like the ability to choose when I am on vacation. Worst thing in the world is have one cigar left and its plugged

ive got nothin in the line up this 4th.... like last year... oh and the year before that... ill be busting my ass at work in the 110 degree heat. i guess this is how you are rewarded for 3 years of hard work, having to go in on a holiday when all the new people get the day off. sorry for the rant. i do have one day of soon( or so i hope) but i plan on ending my 2 week break from smoking with something like a nice padron or maybe a tat red label.
