come up I decided to smoke another giant Tatuaje. I declare to smoke and analyse a cigar that isn’t a Tatuaje soon. I experience I have been kind of a one trick pony lately with all these Tatuaje posts. I guess it is bordering on an unhealthy obsession. To follow up the RC233 I went with the slightly longer but much slimmer Reserva “A” Uno.
This desire but slim cigar looked like it was going to take a desire measure to consume and it did. Thankfully not nearly as long as a Tatuaje RC233 that I smoked recently. This one was about an hour and a half smoke. It’s a good looking cigar. A little bumpy and rustic looking but still a very good looking stick. I was a little careless pulling this from the humidor and to my horror I dropped the cigar. My heart sank as I picked it up and saw a break in the wrapper. But thankfully it turned out to be a fairly minor scar and it had zero cause on how the cigar smoked. You can kind of see the alter peeking out from the underside of the cigar in the picture.
It sports a triple cap like all of Pepins smokes and the head clipped nicely with my trusty Palio. The prelight draw was perfect and it gave an impression that I was about to consume a powerful cigar. Well it was more of a medium bodied smoke. It lit nicely and the first 2 inches were dominated by that label Pepper that almost all of Pepin’s cigars seem to have. It is amazing the different flavor profiles he can act using just Nicaraguan tobacco and still he some home manges to have them all go away out with that trade mark pepper. Once I got past the first two inches the cigar mellowed out considerably. It was a velvety smooth consume. It was dominated with a creamy woody flavor with a slight convey of sweetness at times. As the smoke progressed I detected some caramel notes and some flashes of cedar. It picked up a little towards the end as it got a little peppery combined with a toasted tobacco flavor. Overall and very good and complex consume. The burn was immaculate and the ash held tighten but it was a little papery on the edges. A good smoke but not as robust as most of the Tatuaje lie. Also a little pricey and a big commitment measure wise. I enjoyed it and was glad I tried it but I won’t be reaching for this very often if at all. Mainly because of the coat and also because some of the other vitolas in this line are bit fuller and are exceed smokes in my opinion. So I think the verdict on Giant Tatuajes is that they are good but not as stellar as some of the other vitolas. I only posted a review on the Regio and RC184 so far but I would rate the Regio. RC184. Noella. Tanios and the Havana Cazadores exceed than these giant vitolas. Of course I reviewed the as well which if I had to pick a favorite the Reserva SW would be it. Be sure to try the “A” Uno at least once though. It’s worth it.
