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.
What's in your bowl today

One of my new favorites. Not too heavy which is good since it's hot. Kind of a medium Latakia and sweet VA. Creamy and consistent taste throughout the bowl.

yeah, imma miss it...
Dunhill early morning in my big ben. Followed by dunhill nightcap in a cob. Really liking both of these. Any suggestions for similar blends out there?
Those are two classics that are so hard to go wrong with, emp was the first blend I really "got"
I agree with the really got the emp. Is definitely been doing it for me. Really enjoyable
Hmmmm.........
Cracked a fresh tin of Chelsea morning to send a sample from, ironically this reminds me of emp with a little perique, I had to dry it a bit and I thought I dried it too much, was almost a little crunchy but man it smoked well
Could smell the sweetness of the red vas and just a hint of Latakia I had only planned on smoking one bowl but that quickly changed!
Check out tobacco reviews, there's a spot where people can name similar blends, so look at emp reviews and you might find some, I think this Chelsea morning is a little similar but I like the cut of emp more, it was easier to pack/light/and keep lit without much fuss
This is like emp+ a little perique spiciness

Some Stokkebye LNF with my coffee today. Almost halfway through the 4oz that I bought already, I have never gone through a 'baccy as fast as I have this one... I wanted to see what some age would do to the blend so I better order a pound next time and try to hide it from myself. For the price, this is an exceptional 'baccy.
Next time this stuff is on sale imma buy a pound or so

FWIW LNF comes in 1.5LB packages. o)
Well hot damn! Sounds like that's what I need next time around. Maybe when a sale hits we can buy a few packages to split...
Yep and it's usually at a really sweet price
