THIS MAY BE THE BEST VALUE NC OUT THERE. Holy shit was it good.
Prelight: the best cold draw flavors a cigar has give me in a very long time. Tea, raisin bran, cinnamon and plum.
The ambient smoke smelled of exotic spice and Dried fruit.
A WONDERFUL cigar.
Edit: I do not get very excited about many non Cubans now days. I will be buying some of these.....

I'm hoping I like the Tattoo more than I did the first time I had one. It seemed very one note for me and lacked the Tatuaje 'special ingredient'.
Also, I have witnessed bears shitting in meadows. Thought that was relevant.

Did u try the new tattoo or just the 2011 release? From what I read tonight these things seem like they're not in yet at most places? I believe they're much different animals from the previous blend.

It was one of the new caballeros Justin. I had one a couple weeks ago. I'm definitely not going to give up after one, or even two, three or four. They weren't bad by any means, just not what I was hoping it was going to be. I think I, amongst others, are hoping these are like the Illusione Rothchilds were last year. A really great <$5 stick. I will be smoking more and maybe my palette was off that night.
On another note, I had a Room 101 Big Payback tonight and really enjoyed it. The robustos can be had for less than $5 too.

I am 100% with you on the review of the tattoo Doug.

Last night, a Las Calaveras toro. What a great smoke! Kudos to Huber and Co!



Today, a Herrera Esteli at lunch. Also excellent. Kudos to Willie and Co as well!
