Sure you do, Hal. It's Pete Johnson's (Tatuaje) and blended and made by Pepin. They are awesome smokes.

Thanks for the review Dave.

I've passed by these sticks(different vitola...perhaps?) several times at a local B&M...Now I'll have to pick a few up!

based on the review thread, i also ventured into a cab (it was on sale too!). very good smoke. smooth and flavorful. refined. excellent value.

Next time I'm in CLE, I will personally find this cabinet of smokes and send the whole damn thing to you. Dave won't miss 'em. I can't believe he bought a cab of these...he needs help.

Nice review Dave. After all the buzz going around about these might have to stop at the b&m and pick one or two up.... singles though, not cabs haha

Thanks for the review Dave... These are my favorite from the line & I usually pick up a 5er when I visit my b&m. For $3 cigars they are really pretty tasty... I have gifted them to a few people who mostly smoke Cubans & all have been impressed (or were being extremely nice ).

I really hope I get that LOA in August.

Well I made the right decision.
I just reviewed the Petite Tatuaje the other night because I changed my order from a cab of them to these, to see what I 'missed'. I enjoyed these much better. Not as strong, but still strong for a Cabaiguan. These cigars have some similarities, but the Cabaiguan substitutes a woody sort of complexity for the Tat's pepperiness. I agree with the OP, with some age these may be very interesting, in a good way. I'll be grabbing a handful to smoke now and share and the rest will be tucked away. The price on these are good for what you get, and when you throw in free shipping, 3 Tat Blacks, 1 Cabaiguan Guapo 46, Tat hat, and Tat cutter.....well I'm happy.

I had smoked a few of these a couple of months ago in my quest to find a good "quick" smoke. Not bad. I don't like them near as well as the Padron Corticos but to each his own. At 3$ a pop for them I expected more but I have certainly had worse.
