Went out last nite to a local spot....brought a Tat Black Tubo to smoke....some burn issues, had to touch up 3 times....and the flavor was just so-so.....harsh to start....stored at 65 while resting in my humi for about a month.....drinking Johnny Black rocks which is a regular with a smoke so that didn't affect it....Maybe my expectations were too high....maybe just an "off" smoke from the box....I'll definately revisit this stick in the future but can't say I thoroughly enjoyed this one....also the burn issues were uncharacteristic for a Tat which I've always found to be well constructed....just my
