Default Re: WTF Tat Black????

I haven't bought any Pepin stuff other than Tats in the last year so I can't answer this question but is anyone seeing these problems with the Pepin lines? I know a year ago or so IMHO the quality of the blue and the flavor profile of the Blue changed a bit so I am wondering if it is an issue at the factory or in the fields. One of the noticeable differences for me withe the Blues seemed to be an inferior looking wrapper that was also darker than some of my older stock. Just sayin', since Pete's stuff is getting manufactured in the same factory as Pepins..

I actually noticed a change in the Blue myself around the same timeline you're talking about...interesting. No one commented on it, that I saw, so I figured it was just me.

I know of a handful of people who felt the same way so we are not alone. I have also brought it up to some others and they just looked at me like I was nuts but they are super die hard Pepin Hoes so they may just been in denial and biased.
