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.

Good. DE wasn't kidding about the fire curing; cold draw and prelight scent is like putting face in a pile of ash the morning after a 50ft bonfire in Kentucky. The sweetness of the filler and binder balanced everything out to make a good smoke. It wouldnt hurt to have a little age, but I will definitely be smoking again. I think this size (chunky corona) was perfect too. The larger sizes may not be as appealing to me, given the full strength and pungent nature of the fire cure. All around, enjoyable size and blend. Perfect for the drive home.What did you think Bear?Thanks to John!

Have only had one and have 3 more resting. Definitely in my top 5 for the year. I hope it treats you well brother!
First one. Seems like these are the overall favorite this year by BOTL members. Looking forward to it.
Not a Bears fan, (sad to say Rams), but from Illinois. That is an awesome experience that I'm sure you'll remember for a long time.Pretty awesome to be able to smoke one out there all alone!At Soldier Field today for an event. The security guy said that I could smoke out here so here I am!
Reserva Real. One of the first sticks I smoked that got me into cigars, still probably one of my top five favorites.
An original La Palina Goldie. Cause I am in the middle of one of those weeks.
