I smoked the only one I had while on vacation and was absolutely blown away. The flavor profile of this stick fit me perfectly. I did a search on the forum and found that the TAA was similar in taste. That being said, I was hoping I would not have to chase both of these HTF sticks to get my fill. Are there any regular production Tats that come close? Appeciate some feed back from some brothers who have more experience with the brand. Thanks in advance.

don' think that really helps, man. just saying.
Like DM said, start chasing. These are wonderful and are becoming increasingly hard to come by. I rarely see them come up FS anywhere on any boards. Not even in a sampler of HTFs. Good luck, u have 2 left. Smoked one last year and it was awesome. Only have one taa, will smoke that then be on the look out for them to realease.
I agree that the TAA and the B Rex are very similar.....earth, black tea, pepper...Yum. the TAA has a slightly sweeter wrapper, so I like it a bit better.
But since you are looking for a similar flavor profile to a Pork Tenderloin in a REG production cigar, I'd agree that the Guapo Maduro would be close in the Tatuaje line.
Although many will think I'm nuts, try a Henry Clay Brevas Finas....About $80 a box, and just a great stick that reminds me of both the PT, TAA and BRex. Not exactly the same, but similar. thick, chewy, sweet CBL wrapper, balancing a lot of core tobacco and black pepper.
Hope this helps

What about the J21? When I first tried the PT that is what it reminded me of

Who Dat!
I have several of the tenderloins, taa's and a rex.. I haven't tried any. Father's day is coming up um.........
That's true. The J21's are very good and do have some of the characteristics of the TAA and PT. I just personally find the TAA to have a balance that I've not come across in any other cigar.
I actually liked the j21 better than the PT but I'm probably in the minority there.

That's what I was going to say... The J21 was tweaked and became the Pork Tenderloin.
...and I'm under the impression that the TAA and BRex are the same blend as the Pork Tenderloin. The Tatuaje TAA is one of, if not the best cigar(s) that came out last year.
< that's what I was told by Jose at GStreet. Love me some J21's
