Tatuaje Old Man by the C from the 2015 Northern California Barn Herf. I picked this up in the troops auction and it’s been sitting in my humidor until tonight. I guess it’s survived this long because once I smoke it, that’s it, no more. Half an inch in and this cigar is amazing.
The Tatuaje Black Label cigars were amazing the first year they were released and then each subsequent year they just tasted watered down and they wouldn’t age for ****. Six months after you opened a box they just got more bland and a year and a half turned into paper. Well, this version is intense and powerful!!!!
I think part of me was afraid to ruin the mystique of the Black Label colebra but I’m happy to say this cigar is killing it with the intensity of flavors. Thank you whomever brought this to the Barn Herf and put it into the cigar pot for auction for the troops. This is a fabulous cigar and a great reminder of just how good the Black Label cigars were.
I suppose I should pick up a five pack of the current production to see how they are as I’ve heard Pete stepped up his game to get the brand back up to snuff but I don’t know, haven’t smoked them in three years hah.
