  • 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 wouldnt have picket them up but G. St. was pretty much cleaned out of all Tats, so these looked attractive.

Dan--What do you think of the 46th? I'm curious. The 40th is still the one to beat for me, but I'm gonna be trying another 45th on vacation next week.

Fourtotheflush--I absolutely love the Epernay, awesome smokes. Lighter than the regular Illusione, but more sophisticated. Try the other sizes as well if you like that one, they're all a bit different and all good. The La Ferme might be my favorite, but it's a tough call (and I haven't had the boxpress size).

Not real sure what the culebra size really works out to be. I guess the real name is 2/3.
They're close to lancero size, longer than the corona anyway. They're good. I still want to pick one up for collection reasons (I think Culebras look awesome), I've only had them split up ... from Patrick_B I believe!

I had one and liked it.... which is good, cuz the few Illusiones ive had I didnt really care for.

Im heading back to G st possibly today and may revisit this one in the lounge.

I know this wasn't aimed at me, but wanted to speak, too. Hope you don't mind.

In my opinion, I didn't care much for the 46. There was no resistance to the draw, and tried to burn a little bitter the whole way. The 45 was fantastic! I haven't had the 40th, so can't really comment on a comparison, there. I was pretty disappointed in the 46th I had. :cryloud:

N8 - in my opinion the 46 is the best cigar they've made. Way stronger than anything else they've made, but still has all that delicious Padron flavor. Try one, you'll love it.

Thanks Patrick, sounds like I need to try one! I think I"ll slot one in for my Anniversary week in May :thumbsup:
