  • 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'm a huge fan of the Quesada Espana line, and even though I am not big on lanceros, I looked forward to trying this one. A big thanks to MUM for the cigar. Thanks bro!

I really enjoyed this one, and if it happens to be available at some point, I wouldn't hesitate to grab one again.

I actually smoked this one a little while ago. The times are right. I know, it is a long time for a lancero. Obviously it will vary for different people. If I am reviewing a cigar, I won't let it go out. Don't want that to affect anything.

I'm a fan of the Corona and PR. I bet these are just as good. Thanks for the review :thumbsup:.

I would say right now....the corona is better. But that's just my opinion.

Very cool kockroach... you definitely have given us some reading material for several weekends... it will be interesting to see how my notes compare to some of these sticks you have been reviewing. That said, I haven't smoked the Lancero format for this line.

Thank you for taking the time to post all of these review that last few days!

Anyone know if these will ever be released? I would support such a release :) but it seems like Quesada has decided not to bring them out?

The Espanas were made for Spain, not the US. However, there are some shops that had persuaded the Quesadas to let them have access. However, those shops cannot advertise that they sell them.

I know this, as one shop had posted them in their on-line listing, they were contacted and asked to remove the listing, or they would not be able to re-order.

As far as the lancero...don't think it was made for anyone else other than the small batch that was requested. I could be wrong...but haven't seen them anywhere.

Right, I'm talking about the lancero specifically. I've bought the Espanas in other sizes before--actually just bought a box of the coronas.

I'll swear I didn't say anything, but you just might see lanceros in a limited amount in the future

I seriously cannot get enough of these reviews! Although(like I've said before) I love the long reviews, this format allows you to quickly compare notes to what you are smoking now and get a quick idea of what to expect. Thanks for these!!!

Sens a pm or call with your details and I'll put you on the list. We don't have all the details on purchase requirements yet (for example, they may come only in certain amounts or as a part of a sampler) but there will literally only be one large box

!!!!!

Please reserve a box for me! :-D
