Tatuaje Series P Toro Review (Cigars)

First Tatuaje of 2014....



I have had the Series P cigars before. When the line first came out I had tried all the sizes and I was mostly impressed. The Series P doesn't have the greatest construction. Though for the price the construction is right where it should be. I love the simple white band with red writing.


A couple of puffs had a bit of a bitterness to them. Not really an issue as I may have puffed too much. This had the classic Tatuaje meaty goodness to it. Its said to be made with the scraps from the Havana vi red line. I tend to believe that's a true statement.


Other than Cuban cigars Tatuaje are my favorite.




This sample was dry boxed for two days.

Notes: Charred leather, Meaty tobacco, Mellow Milk Chocolate, Slight black pepper

Daily Smoke: Intemperance BA XXI Ambition (Cigars)




I dry boxed this cigar 24 hours. Draw was stelller. I feel bad about reviewing the sampler without trying this cigar first (I thought I had). This cigar was pretty damn great. Notes: Citrus, Yeasty Dark Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Black Liquorice. The flavors at the end really married together nicely.

I wanna buy a five pack now haha..

Liga Privada Undercrown Robusto review (Cigars)




Everybody I know told me to try this cigar. When I did it was a decent let down. The first thing I noticed was this really cool smell on the wrapper. It was what I like to call "cold earth". It to me smelled like an piece of dirt (good dirt) infused with menthol. The whole time the cigar was lit it smoked a shit ton which at times was annoying. I would shift in my chair or get up from my chair and smoke would go up my nose.



Every once and a while I would get a good taste of the wrapper and it tasted much like it smelled. The draw was a little on the tight side. Notes: Chocolate , Cedar, Sweetness, Mild Tobacco. It was almost mild for me. I was impressed with the No.9 and Dirty Rat. Sadly not this cigar though. I will smoke another one in a week or so and see if I like it more than.

Montecristo Puritos Review (Cigars)



After seeing tons and tons of bad reviews for these little guys I was surprised when I
finally got to try one.



The tiny cigar had an amazing draw. The wrapper was real ugly and at times I was surprised that the wrapper held together. The taste was great all the way through. Notes: Wood, leather, Tasty tobacco. This just goes to show you that sometimes you just gotta try things yourself.

In closing: Is it worth the price? No. Should you try one if you get the chance? Always whenever you have a chance to try an cuban cigar you should.

Viaje Super Shot 12 Gauge Review (Cigars)



I was pretty excited to try this cigar cause I thought it would be a full on powerhouse. I really liked the closed foot on the cigar I wish more companies would do that these days. Really gives you an nice taste of the wrapper to start things out with. The first inch was pretty damn good. The strength kinda built up and surprised me. There was a bit of pepper in the throat. Notes: Spice, Charred meat, Burnt coffee, Bitterness, Pepper. The second inch of the cigar was a let down as it was kinda mild in comparison to the first inch. (My cigar had an crack from shipping didn't effect the wrapper a bit)



In closing: The cigar is not worth the money. I felt like if somebody handed me the cigar and told me it was a Tatuaje I would believe them. I was hoping for something that didn't taste like everything else on the market right now and I was let down. I will admit this is my first Viaje I have had. This cigar seems to be more hype than its worth. I smoked this one after and hour of getting it, I will smoke one after some rest to see if its a little better.

I wish Viaje would come out with an .30-06 with the full power the whole time you smoke it.
