Tatuaje to re-release East and West coast??

[Starz26]

Saw this comment posted on another site Aug 6th. Any truth to it?

Tatuaje will also be releasing a Verocu Tubo (east and west coast blend), as well as Tatuaje Black Tubos.

I am sure Larry can find the stuff easier than I, do a little search.. It is going to be another Verocu similar to a Westie in a tube, not an Eastie or Westie

It will be close, but due to the size difference and blend...etc. I don't think the originals will be duplicated! :thumbsup:

that was always my understanding as well. the tubos (red) would be close, but not exactly a reproduction, just the latest and greatest from pete!

Here is a little more information from StogieLife.com

"The good news for those that have not been able to secure any East Coast or West Coast is that Pete Johnson debuted his Tatuaje Verocu Tubos at the IPCPR show recently. He has stated that the blend in the tubos is the same as these cigars. The new Verocu will be available in boxes of 10 cigars in bright red tubos."

I'm just happy that the blacks will be easier to get now.

I'm pumped about the Verocu tubos, but I'm worried they will be too expensive (probably $10 each).

The first release was $10 each without the tube. Doubt it will be cheaper, lucky us if it stays the same.

I think these will be in the $13-$15 dollar range....

Probably more since the original verocu was $10 and now there are more taxes and these are coming in tubos. I would guess these will be $13.

 

[n.olson]

yeah i'd be pretty happy if these were 150 /bx!

 

[njstone]

Yea, I guess they were listed at $10 retail, but I often saw them at $9/each (CI 5-packs, etc). I agree that these will probably be $12 or so. That would make the Blacks $15 I'll bet, if not more.

 

[Patrick B]

I've only had one black and I was ready to call Pete and propose. $15 a pop doesn't scare me at all! I also expect that or more for the black tubos.

 

[tatuaje]

Probably close to $11...Just a guess though.

 

[Benzopyrene]

Yah, cool tubos!

 

[El Baton]

Am I glad to see Blacks coming back around. I was down to my last 3 from my jar and I smoked my last Westie months ago!

 

[njstone]

Probably close to $11...Just a guess though.

Woohoo! $11 might be doable as a split for me, as long as split the Blacks and the Drac as well...or I find a way to earn some money soon

this is good news to hear for me.
