Re: stupid question

Franks were a limited release Tatuaje cigar that was released October 31, 2008. Only 13 retailers were selected in a lottery system throughout the country to be lucky enough to carry them. I THINK (But could be wrong) only 200 boxes were made. This year, another limited-release cigar will come out on the 13th - The Drac.

The Tatuaje Black Label was another rare cigar that was packaged in ceramic jars. Some bundles floated around, too, as well as robustos that you could only get at a Tatuaje event if you purchased a box of Tatuaje cigars. The new Torpedo will be released soon, and will be in a tube.

The Tat blacks do not age well. I smoked one right after they were released and the cigar was AWESOME to say the least. I smoked another just a couple of weeks or so ago and it was just OK.

Thank you for the info I kept reading about the franks but even after a quick search I couldnt find the full names anywhere.

Re: stupid question

I think there were 666 boxes of the Franks produced. Good Luck finding any though..LOL

I agree the best Blacks I smoked were fresh..smoked the last one I had a week ago and it went down hill from release..

My opinion of course..
