  • 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.

What a weekend...

So let's get right to it. Friday night was the first official release of the Tatuaje Monster Series over in NY with Pete Johnson.

Smoked some awesome cigars that night and met lots of cool people. It was awesome meeting Pete. He is a very personable and down to earth kind of guy.

I started the day with a Cabaiguan Guapo Jr. and I followed that with an El Triunfador. Later around 7:30pm the Frank's were released and the fire started. Let me tell you guys this is an awesome stick. You must go out and get your hands on these (if you can). Finished off the night with a La Riqueza #1 and a mojito; not a bad pairing.








At some point during the night Dion from Illusione walks casually on in to join in the festivities.

Then we come to Saturday, only finding out Friday, that Dion will be releasing the Cruzados. Two releases in two days. OHHHHHHH BOOOOOYYYYYYYY!!!! So I made the drive out to the Cruzado release and it was definitely worth it.

My box of Holy Lanceros


3 different sizes of the Cruzados (Forgive me for the not remebering their names)


Dion and I


Unfortunately my day got cut short due to my fiancee and her sister getting into a car accident. Happily they are both ok with minor cuts and bruises and whats looks to be like a totalled car. My fiancee was even crazy enough to tell me to go back to the shop so that I could hang out with Pete and Dion while they were here. She's amazing thinking of me when she's hurt but I needed to be there for her.


It was awesome meeting Pete and Dion and being part of the release of these awesome cigars. Thank you both for creating FANTASTIC cigars and being the guys you are.

You had a nice pickup weekend.

My daughter just had her first kid and my first grandson, Joseph Michael, 9 lbs, 4oz, 21 1/4 inches. Big kid. Full head of hair. So I had a good weekend too! Her husband almost fainted in the delivery room I hear, but he is a good boy.
