Blech. Did NOT like this cigar, bought a few after hearing all the raves about Tatuaje and frankly I found it harsh and monotone in terms of flavor. It burned HOT and was absolutely aweful. I put it out after an inch or so because it just wasnt worth it. To think, I almost bought a box! I will try another in time, but this one was just aweful and a big turn off. I feel disappointed as I was expecting a great smoke!

FSU you started with the wrong Tatuaje. You need to try the base line of Tatuaje like the Unicos, Especiales, Tainos, Regios and the Noellas. Even the Noellas at 5 1/8" x 42 and the Petite Tatuajeat 4 ½" x 32 have a nice cool burn if you smoke them slow without drawing to hard. The Havana VI and the Series P just don't compare to the original line.

The ones I bought got real nice after some humi time. I had a VI Angeles last night that was pretty damn good. The first inch or so was rather peppery but it mellowed out...Nubbed it.

I could have dealt with the heat but the flavor was just boring and overly harsh. Maybe I got a bad one, Ill give another one a shot, but I REALLY did not like this cigar this time around Sad

ben do give those another shot.  it's truly an excellent cigar though quite different in taste profile from the regular tatuaje line.

wow, sorry to hear about that experience. i like the red label tat's fine, though they do lack the complexity of the original line. burning hot sounds awfully strange, i'm hoping you got a one-off dud. i agree with cowboy, maybe give the red label another shot in a month or two (let the bad memory fade). if you want an epic smoke, i swear by the original tat line, especially the tainos, followed by the noellas and unicos. and they age beautifully.

EXACTLY what I said about the first one I had.

I let the box chill out in my humi for a month and a half and very much enjoyed the 2nd...and the 3rd....and the 4th...Big Grin
