Pete just announced a new upcoming release on his Facebook page.

Very similar to the Partagas Culebra, this release will be unbanded, and will NOT be a limited production. It will be available in the next coming months.

Just thought I would give a heads up to all you Tat fiends.

Excellent. I've always wanted to try a Culebras, and haven't not ordered the Party (yet), I might be in luck :-)

Thanks for the info!

I'm willing to bet they would both have a different profile.

:-):-):-)


I thought I saw somewhere else that the Tatuaje C was going to be the original El Triunfador blend, but now I can't find the post (and it wasn't a post from Pete, so it might or might not have been accurate).

Thanks Bill.

That explains why I couldn't find it, I thought I saw it on another forum and was looking there.

:-)

I know, it's just the shape that intrigues me. I've had my share of Partagas cigars as well as Tatuajes, but the culebra vitola always made me :-)
[Reply]

Try the party culebra they are tasty as all hell. A few years of age on them makes for an awesome cigar. That and frankly I could never find any other culebra.
[Reply]

I'm curious what kind of price point these will be at, and what exactly is not "limited" production? I'm sure they will be killer like all Tats.
[Reply]

I heard Pete was releasing 1 OR El Triunfador along with the culebra and calling it "The Old Man and the C".
[Reply]

I just don't get the culebra. It's fun occasionally to bust one out during a herf, but I prefer smoking straight cigars.
[Reply]

Must resist...

Too easy...
[Reply]

this is right from how I understand it. 4 cigars in one coffin.

1 OR El Triunfador

next to it,

1 Culebra made of 3 OR El Triunfador.


the first stick is the "old man"

the Culebra is the "C"

then again.. it could all change :-)
[Reply]

That...intrigues me.
[Reply]

I would think that it would be great if Pete would simply release the "old man" robusto in a kraft paper bundle and leave the "culebra" in the coffin. The "old man" sounds like its gonna be a tasty smoke.

Correct me if I'm wrong regarding the size of the "old man" release...



[Reply]

That is a good point. I don't think he said exactly what size the Old Man was going to be, but I just assumed it is going to be a Lancero, like the OR EL Tri.
[Reply]

I can't wait!!!

The novelty of the culebra doesn't do anything for me. But that is why we are lucky to have so many choices out there. Something for everyone.
[Reply]

Yeah...novelty is the key word there. It's not the culebra that would have me excited...it's the OR El Triunfador blend that's doing that. :-)
[Reply]

The old man robusto would be the Cabaiguan Maduro Guapos...

The original release El Triunfador was a Lancero based on the Cabaiguan blend with the Ligero removed.

Personally, I like the El Triunfador much more than the Cabaiguan Maduro.
