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.

There are several I could offer. ...depending on your desired profile.
Definitely try Reinado. Just excellent cigars, period.
Lou Rodriguez are excellent as well. Particularly the Connecticut and the Premier lines.
La Cima is very good. The classic is full bodied the ENG is lighter but very full flavored.
El Premier Mundo Epifania is a great medium bodied smoke.
Forcade are very nice Pepin made sticks that are well worth checking out.
Villiger 1888, Talanga and Colorado are all very good and different.
As for more boutique stuff... Oja, Cremo, Tarazona and Pio are all excellent IMHO.

+1 on the Curivari. I also had a smoke this weekend that was very delicious from a company called Cult cigars. It was a corona called Blood Red Moon and they are like $3 a pop. I gotta say it was well worth the price.
Everyone knows my favorite in this area.....
Henry Clay Brevas Finas...Around $80 a box for a really nice Churchill with an oily, chewy wrapper covering a medium/full, peppery smoke. These cigars have been consistent for over 20 years. A nice budget smoke mostly overlooked.

Villager 1888, and La Libertad are not at all for the price.
I like La Reloba a lot. Especially the Mexico wrapped. The Habano and Sumatra are no slouch.
Cuchillos are awesome too. Don't see them around that much anymore.
Jesus Fuego makes some great ones IMO.
Used to love an aged El Rico Habano if you can find them. The ones made by Ernesto, no that General cigars garbage.

+1 for La Reloba, Villiger Colorado and Talanga, Oja(especially the connecticut), Reinado Grand Empire Reserve
Add La Jugada Prieto, Roma Craft Intemperance BA and EC, and especially Paul Stulac Cigars

Actually yeah the Villager wasn't a bad smoke and I second the J Fuego stuff. Pretty solid overall.
Reinado
Curivari
EloGio
certain house blends, such as Key West Cigar Club (they only have one), Tres Hermanos, and others
Murcieglagos are quite delicious, at least the ones i had. They seem to be overlooked a lot.

La Riquezza and El Triunfador. Neither get a lot of talk, or sell well, but both are great blends from Pete Johnson.
Trinidad - a CC brand I'd never had any experience with, and no one really talks about, but I had a corona on Friday that was magical!
Ramon Bueso - got a lot of hype from CI, but not a lot of press; great stick at an even better price
RoMa Craft - another company putting out great cigars but not getting a lot of play, at least that I see. The Intemperance BA XXI got a high mark from halfwheel, but you don't see a lot of guys talking about them.

Nice call on the Elogio. Don't know how I forgot that and really excited about the new ones coming out.
Cigar Factory New Orleans. They can be ordered online.
