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.

Okay, so I finally smoked a Tat Black...out of the 3-pack of "freebies" that Pete gave me Thursday at a Tat event.
I liked it -- a lot -- but I gotta say, it's quite different than the regular Tat lines. Much more mellow, definitely a smoother blend.
But even tho I liked it, it's not my favorite Tat. I think I still prefer the bold heavy profile of the Brown labels. I'd have to say that the Havana Cazadores and the Noellas are still my faves. They just fit my own personal flavor preferences better.

I thought the blacks were pretty stong! Definately packed with flavor though. I love the havana cazadores, but more recent productions of them with the darker wrappers have been a real let down to the way they tasted a year ago. We'll see if they can get back on track. Lovin the blacks right now.

Oh they're still strong...but the blend is so smooth that it takes some of the edge off (if that makes any sense) compared to the brown labels--and I think I personally prefer that edginess.

I am with you there.
I just emailed my "hook-up" to see if she got her two jars in. Hopefully she hasn't forgotten about little ole me. I figure with the advice of letting them sit for 6-8 months I'll do just that. I'll just have them shipped to my woman's house. Seeing as how they're wetpacked in the foil they should be pretty woman proof. I think. Hmm maybe I should still have them sent to me here in Turkey.

I called around the local B&M's to see if anyone had sticks, an ETA or waiting list and was told by one that they had 28 sticks in stock they would hold for me. I showed up to find some reserve's with "black bands" under ther brown. I so much like the cigar slut better than the cigar teese.

Me too, I find them on line but they are always sold out.
I just talked my "hook up" in pittsburgh. It's a b&m and he said he's getting in only 3 jars. I politely asked what it would take to get him to hold a jar for me. He said he's not going to sell them by the jar, but rather in an effort to make them availabel to everybody, he's going to limit it to 1 or 2 per person per day. Looks like i need to find 19 of my closest friends and take them on a trip to pittsburgh.
bummer. i was hoping i could score a 2nd jar.

Got my jar in today! What a beautiful thing!
I've got my most respectable B&M on it. I have them locking up all they have when they show up. They have not been keeping an eye on them but they will now.
I have spent a few grand with them so they want to make me happy.
I will update you boys if things happen.

Just got off the phone and my jar is paid for. It will stay at an undisclosed location awaiting my arrival. This way I don't have to worry about it making a trip half way around the world twice. Melanie the owner is hiding it for me and keeping it until I can stop in the shop for a smoke with her. What an awesome lady. I'll have to give her a big hug and bring some black dog coffee with for us to drink while we smoke. So I will not be able to share until Sept/Oct sometime. I'll keep sharing in mind though brothers.
Scott I have your address. I'll send ya one when I am back stateside for good if you don't have a jar by then. FO SHOOOOOOOOOO!!!

I beat you all May '08 :)
Pete said everyone's order is being cut to 1/3. They had a hard time getting the jars made. They will be getting the rest of their order later, but they only had 300-something jars to ship.
