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.

A wonderful cigar. First release was the no.2, a petite lancero. The second was the no. 5, a robusto extra. The newest version will be lancero and it will released in May. There will be 2500 boxes released, same amount as the no. 5. You can still find the no. 5 at some online retailers. The no. 2 is secondary market only at this point and prepare to pay a premium.
So these are indeed premium cigars

There is a buzz about these cigars...$17 to $19 per stick...yowza!! Can't say that this cigar is as good as Cohiba Espy or others and when a manufacturer comes out with a market price like this it tends to make me skeptical. The Classic Lancero costs between $5.70 to $8 per stick and the reviews on those are pretty good but how can you bump up the next line at almost 4 times the pricing....when they come out I can't wait to read the reviews from people that aren't paid to shill out reviews for them...gimmee the every day guy who doesn't work for them to give an honest review.
I for one am a huge fan of the the Goldie no 5, just found some recently and did a couple box splits with some bros. Yes they are pricey, but for 2 hour and 20 minute smoke ill pay $17 to entertain myself. I love the whole family series great smokes. The lil bill to me needs to be dry boxed to really help open that beauty up!
I'll be interested to try. Just had not heard of them til they were referenced in the "top 5 cigars" thread.
I have a box. I like the fives but not sure when I will get through them.
One thing between the two is where they were made. The Goldie was made at El Titan de Bronze in Miami and the Classic line in the DR so there is already higher labor costs involved.
^ That actually explains a lot.
