It was like watching grown men devolve into bunch of 13 year old Hanna Montana fans. The bitterness I see in posts by people who used to swear by Tatuaje and grew jaded because a couple of special releases didn't live up to the hype they'd created for themselves makes me think that maybe they only ever liked the IDEA of Tatuaje cigars in the first place. If they had really liked the product, it wouldn't have mattered that the Drac fell flat. From what I've heard, the Boris made up for it. God knows how many tent poles we Habanophiles have to throw out into the lake LE's and RE's in that world are notoriously inconsistant. I've even heard that the Cohiba Gran Reserva box smelled like varnish. Maybe Pete was just trying to emulate Habanos in ALL aspects of business
I think people were pissed because a high end product, especially a "limited" high end product you spend your hard earned money on should not dissapoint like this has. That said, I have heard good things about this stick, but nowhere as many bad things...Doesnt matter to me I dont buy alot of his stuff...Ps-are you saying he made the boxes smell like paint on purpose??? And when it comes to cc, well, I just it's kind of expected because, well, because that's the way it sometimes is...I am not trying to pick a bone with anyone, whatsoever, just adding my 2 cents
