Recently Mariogolbee was kind enough to let go of a few HTF's I was looking for, and to make an even 5'er included a red and black Tatuaje Tubo with the other cigars. I've been toying with the idea of picking up a box of each, but I wanted to smoke each first to see if it was something I wanted to put my money towards. Well, this morning I researched them, and what fun research
I would've put this under reviews, but it's not so much a review as a question...but I digress, pictures!
I smoked the red first, and while it was an overall nice cigar, the flavors were lacking. It was just kind of...bland? In comparison I enjoyed the Havana VI and P-Series line more, which are significantly cheaper smokes.
Of course though, here comes the black. What an amazing smoke. Flavorful, great construction, phenomenal wrapper, and well worth the higher price in my opinion.
Here's my question...I've heard everybody rave about the red tubos, and a lot of people say the blacks are so hit and miss. Did I get an opposite experience from the norm, getting a bad red and a good black? After smoking these back to back, I've all but written off wanting to buy any reds and would much rather get one or two boxes of the blacks.
Opinions/thoughts/comments appreciated!
