Just kiddin' ya' Walt, because you just so happen to be right about all the Tatuaje's. They are good.

I give up. it is to that point where it's just to irritating to continue. just not meant to be I suppose. I will be content to smoke others.

Re: Tatuaje -The Face
 
Even if I had some I would not smoke them without a month of age on them. Its only the 10th and the "regular" release wont be out in full force until the 31st. Or at least the guys on the east coast, and Im waiting for a review from Brooks to really see how these are.

Not as good as the Frank yet(but it is not by much). It could reach the point where it is as good or better than the Frank. It is better than the Drac by far and slightly better tha the Boris.

There has never been one before that I know of... haven't heard anything about a new one. I think Pete goes to too many things it would be too much work! LOL

I called 5 local shops this morning that hadn't even received any calls or had any plans for how they were going to handle the sales this year. The chase hasn't even begun around here yet.

Not saying it's not good, just not my favorite of the series.

I'm not a fan of Mexican wrappers, it just doesn't do it for me. The initial few puffs were great, I got tons of smoke and spice. After a 5 minutes into, it just went away. I was able to taste that sweet tobacco but that was mainly it, didn't change a whole lot to me.

Now, maybe it was because I opened one of the 10 count boxes as soon as they arrived at the shop. I will sit on my box for a little bit and see how that goes.

I'm not saying that the cigar sucked, I liked it. I was just saying it's not my favorite of the monster series.

Well, after smoking one, I think a lot of people are going to be surprised with the profile of this one, esp considering the idea of who it was named after...

Why will people be surprised? Just curious...

A Cojonu blend with the Mexican wrapper sounds mighty tasty to me! :tu

And I couldn't agree with you more. When I was smoking it, I pretty much said that to myself.

I have to agree. But I found it to be the most complex of the monsters I've smoked. Keep in mind that the Drac did nothing for me at all...either when it was released or presently.

Smoked a Boris tonight while watching Halloween II. Great cigar. But if I'm choosing between the Frank (the way they're smoking now), the Boris (I'm not even considering the Drac in the running) and the Face...I'm liking the Face as the front runner. Though the Frank was my favorite stick period, for some time... :sh

Re: Tatuaje -The Face
 
Haha, you can tell yourself you don't want them all you want, when you see that bundle/box it goes out the door :P too bad no where locally sells very much Tatuaje or I'd be able to get a box (october birthday for the win! Wife and parents like buying me cigars :tu)

I'd love to get a box but not that way.

Your not supposed to ask double the price until this time NEXT year. Where's that stick with a nail in it...?

gijoey959 10-11-2010 09:38 PM

Re: Tatuaje -The Face
 
I was bracing for $175 maximum for the 13 stick box, no way i'd pay more than that for that few cigars, limited release or not

I think retail is $172 so yea that's about right

Re: Tatuaje -The Face
 
Sadly, as the saying goes "There's an @sshole for every seat" so chances are someone with more money than smarts will snatch them up at that price. At that price that's $23 a stick!

I don't think that it is going to be too hard to get over $200 with taxes and shipping..... I did....

While I'm posting in this thread, I've never smoked the 'monster' series (though I was gifted a Frank, which I'm sure I'll try at some point). Pete's marketing skills are clearly impressive, but I haven't been able to get into Tat's... that aside, these cigars are huge.

To each their own, though. For guys on the hunt... good luck.

Nefari0us 10-12-2010 09:15 AM

Re: Tatuaje -The Face
 
Just went by the shop, the came in, I grabbed 3... I'll report back later after smoking one and let you guys know how it was

*cough* smoke it on the 30th *cough*

Re: Tatuaje -The Face
 
That would be cool, I'm gonna skip out on these if they're too expensive, since I can get a box of 20+ something else for around that price, but I like the idea of the monster series, and since I've never had any of them, why not jump in with "the face"... if I can find a box

Interesting, looking forward to getting them in our shop then as the Frank was an outstanding cigar IMHO.

Looks like $212 will be the price after tax for the shop I will be purchasing from.
