I can speak for the Tenderloins. They're a great stick and come in bundles of 25 limited to 200 bundles. I lit one up straight outta the package and was very spicy at first then turned leathery, cocoa, and chocolaty. It was a very good smoke and I believe it lasted me 1 hr 45 mins. Age will only do this cigar better.

I also know that they plan on doing another 'meat' release in October and will release a meat locker collection of all the sticks. I've never had a Pork Chop though...

Don't worry about trying to chase the Pork Tenderloin. It's nothing special; stick to the regular brown label.
I disagree...I was dissapointed in the Tat "Outlaw", but the Tenderloin is everything that makes Tatuaje a great cigar, all rolled into one...

I disagree...I think the regular brown label has more strength, more spice, and better complexity. The Pork Tenderloin was one-dimensional and not worthy of all the hype it's gotten.

IMHO...The Pork Tenderloin is probably one of the best cigars I've tried in a loooooong time. Nothing out there even comes close to what this stick delivers. I'm so happy with it...that I don't feel the need to chase down anymore limited release sticks for as long as I have these on hand...unless it's more PT's. This will be the cigar that new releases will be compared too. YES...it's THAT GOOD!

I liked the PC, just did not have good military smoking discipline and blew through the box to fast, now I have none.

The PT is a very good one and I shall restrain and pace myself on these.

Really? wow, i found the PL to be much more spicy and powerful up front. While i wouldn't call it the most complex stick on earth it certainly wasn't one dimensional to me. Are you saying you only got one flavor out of it? Because i got coffee, leather, chocolate, spice, and lots of pepper on the tongue. It also mellowed nicely as the cigar progressed but the strength builds at the came time. very cool.

I agree also with Brooks in saying this is what makes cigar smoking great but I have to question about the strength level you tasted. There is about one more leaf of ligero in the Tenderloin and the wrapper alone will give the cigar a spicier profile. Maybe the sweetness from the broadleaf is making the cigar taste milder for you.

Strange.

Mine samples for my review have all been spicy and strong...not overwhelming by any means, but definitely more so the the Reg brown labels...

I hold your brown label in high regard so maybe I'm biased to them, I don't know. (The regular brown label Caz is about as good as it gets for any cigar.) The amount of spice and complexity in the brown labels far surpassed the PT, for me at least.

I'm looking forward to the 7th (in both versions) and the Petit Caz!
