I love Tatuaje Cigars and noticed these "budget Tat's" cigars and had to try them.Their regular lines get quite expensive and I'm cheap.
The reason these are less costly is the cut filler as opposed to long filler.
The first one was surprisingly good and Tatuaje like.My only issue with it was of my own doing,I cut the foot rather than punch it.
Having to spit little pieces of tobacco took away a few points
:-)
My general overview is good to excellent for a whopping $3.30 a stick (approx) and tasty medium Tatuaje profile.
Great draw and razor sharp burn. These come in cabinets of 31.

I haven't tried the white line Tats yet, but it's probably a great smoke.
Pick you up a few of the Ambos Mundos, It's a little more per stick ($5) but I had one the other night, and it was excellent!

Thanks for the tip.Tatuaje cigars aren't readily available around here yet though.

I made the same mistake Dave, and I couldnt get past the tobacco in my mouth enough to enjoy the cigar. Ill give this one another shot with a punch.

I'm still smoking the one in the picture Moe and I have to say it's quite the gem when punched.

These are my absolute favorite of the Tats. I had local BOTLs mad at me becuase i bought out our local B&M of them all! LOL Now I'm just waiting for them to restock!

I picked up a cab of these a few months back and got a free travel humidor. While the travel humidor is pretty mediocre, I like the cigars!
And I agree with the shards of tobacco floating around when cut. I don't have a punch, so I find myself spitting little bits throughout the smoke ....

Nice review! These are great cigars for the price, and the P1 is my favorite size. Perfect for taking to work every day.

Not a problem, the offer stands if / when you like!

You really need to use a punch on these due to the priming of the wrapper. they will travel like crazy when cut. Great value for a great smoke.

I haven't smoked one of these in a long while. I used to LOVE them. Even more than the Havana VI. I may have to pick up a box just to have some on hand.

Thanks for the review and photo, Dave. I've never had one, but I just received one in the mail from DPD6030 (Andrew). Can't wait to give it a try.
