  • 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.

Do these ever go through a sick period? :dunno:

One of the most consistent smokes around IMO.

Great smoke that only gets better with age. I found these to be quite strong when young...see Todd.....you're not such a lightweight afterall! :nodlaugh:

Maybe I'll fire one up tonight.

Wish I had the $$$ to get a cab of these....I'm sitting on whats left of a box cab split now.

Had an 03 Monte 2 that was BAD!

I've smoked two Monte 2's in the last 6 months and both are soapy!?! Different boxes, different ages, different brothers gave me them. What's the deal with recent productions? Anyone else notice this?

Can't say I've had an 03, but I have smoked several 04's from 2 different box codes and they have been excellent?

Darkest wrapper I've ever seen on a Habano bar none Cliff. I should have compared it to a couple NC maduros I have but I bet it would have compared pretty favorably on the darkness scale.

The JL #2 I had (received them yesterday) is the same. The wrapper is comparable to any NC maduro I have ever had. Beautiful wrapper and wonderful smoke.
