  • 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.

picked up in a bundled special from cigarmonster.com, conn. wrapper and packed. old school smell pre-light. first draw-mild pepper that vanished quickly, mild hay, light vanilla and carmel, slight wood. half way in, yeah...
all of the above and some more complexity. lots of smoke, medium all the way, w/a metered, predictable nic-buzz ensued.

i wander the nether regions of cheap cigars, just to see what i can find. i am often surprised, dismayed, disgusted.

has anyone out there had one? (don't look down)

big clouds and long ashes!

I find myself more dismayed and disgusted. Life is not worth smoking crap cigars.
One man's trash is another man's treasure.

Not everyone out there can afford to smoke premium or super premium cigars everyday, Plush.

That's the glory of our hobby.

Rather amusing to know Cigar Aficionado rated it a 90; Cigar Insider rated it a 91.

I like these cigars and smoke them when they are on sale. People tend to "root" for their favorites which is all good up until it crosses a boundary where they tend to tell other enthusiasts that what they smoke is not good enough...that never bodes well.
