Default First Review: Tatuaje Series P P1

Hey all,

This is my first review so please bear with me.

this is a corona gorda size stick, it is a mixed filler cigar with 40% long and 60% short filler. I did notice that there were a couple soft spots but nothing too bad. The cigar cut easily with my Xikar Xi cutter and lit pretty quick with my ronson.

first third:
- very effortless draw (but not too loose) just right
- I taste what I can only describe as a "hay" type taste with hints of nuttiness
- not flavor packed but pleasant to smoke




second third
- at first not much change
- started to get a hint of pepper in the back of my throat
- wrapper developed a pretty bad crack
- started to burn a little hot, I really had to pay attention to how fast I was smoking
- razor straight burn line

final third
- pepper really picked up
- wrapper crack corrected itself when the burn passed it


Final thoughts

I really enjoyed this cigar, the pepper did get a little strong but that was right at the end. for the price of $104 for a box of 31 this is a very good smoke and something that I would buy again and recommend to others.

8.9/10

Nice review. Just to be clear, there's no short filler in this cigar, It's 60% medium filler :-)
