I do love'em! I've been buying Tatuajes like hot cakes since the release of the T-110s this past summer. It seems like Pete is releasing a new, highly sought after cigar every other month.

It appears you are not the only one and there are probably many more like you. I personally have many boxes and singles of Tatuaje, as it is my favorite stick. I have a hard time figuring out which stick I want to burn today.

I guess so. I like Tatuajes and Cabaiguans. Sometimes I think there is something wrong with me for not gushing over them like everyone else.

I definitely want to try some of the Cojonu stuff though. They intrigue me a bit.

Not sure if I am a "fanboy", but I purchased a box of both Red and Black tubos just because.... So I have at least 20 Tat sticks in my humi.... Should take delivery of a T110 5er shortly....

Only tat I even remember smoking have been a few Noella's....think 2....

Have seriously considered purchasing a box of Reserva J 21's.....

As with all my cigar purchases, I figure that if they don't "do it for me".....someone will enjoy them.....

I'm not sure if I have any at all. I just have never found one of Pete's sticks I like.
I keep trying, though.

Default Re: Am I the only one that....

I'll buy a single or to from time to time when I go into the B&M, because I do like Pete and DPGs products, but the prices a box of tats go for and the difficulty in finding the vitola you want is such that it's actually easier and cheaper to buy a box of CCs that I'll end up liking better anyway, so that tends to be the direction my box purchases go. For the same reasons, you'll never find me smoking any Opus or Anejos. It's ironic that Habanos LEs are REs are easier to track down than limited NCs!

My best man gave me a box of the brown label regios at my bachelor party. I've still got a few of those laying around. I'll probably get another when they're gone. I really like them.

Some of my favorite sticks. I have 6 full boxes and 100 or so of singles scattered throughout my humidors.

Each time we go to a B&M to smoke, I buy some cigars to pay my "keep"...so I have a few Tatuajes in the humi.

Next to Padróns, Illusiones, and Fuentes, Tatuajes are some of my favorite NCs. I've got fivers and singles of Pete's stuff 'cause I think he puts out a tasty cigar, though I would not consider myself by any means to some kind of "gushing fanboy." IMO, two of his special releases are probably the best sticks he's released, and two of my favorite cigars as well: the SW Maduro and the Black Label Corona Gorda. The latter, however, is the only limited edition of Pete's that I would aggressively seek out––love those things.

Having said that, I would beg to differ with the OP's assertion that he's in the minority on the net and in the "general cigar world" because he has no Tats. I think Pete's sticks are still considered to be "boutique"––that, as such, makes them a minority in the cigar world in general. There are far more popular smokes out there, both to American and non-American smokers alike. Sure, Tatuajes have gotten their fair share of press from publications like CA, but I think the level of Tatuaje's popularity can be a bit misleading if we only gauge it through forums such as this....

Saddyly I've yet to try any. My local B@M's have very poor choices, and when I'm hunting down smokes online I usually opt for two or three boxes of something else for the same price.

If I run into them I'll be sure to give them a shot.

I personally only like the Reserva's and LR's. I can't say that I'm even mildly interested in the regular brown label line. I thought that the Noella's were good for the money, until I ordered a box and the retailer sent me Noella Reserva's instead. Since then...I never looked back. Actually...I'll take the Noella Reserva over just about any other stick I've smoked, except the higher end of the scale Padron's.

Come to think of it...I can't remember the last time I bought a Fuente either.

Not only do I not have one, I've never smoked one. I always look at them, then choke on the price at my local B&M.

I kinda got mad after the whole monster thing...it just made me think a bit more about the purchases since they are more expensive. Pete makes some fantastic cigars..it's just at the price point I can have 2-3 fantastic CC's for every 1 Pete stick. I still like them and buy them...though not as much.
