For close to 20 years, Tatuaje has delivered outstanding cigar after outstanding cigar. Their original brown label cigars nearly broke the industry when they debuted. For many it was the closest cigar one could get to a Cuban Montecristo (in the domestic market). The look, appearance, and flavor are all throwbacks to the world famous Montecristo No. 2. Every Tatujae cigar is made with the utmost care by Jose “Pepin” Garcia at his factories. Pete Johnson, the owner of Tatuaje Cigars, works hand-in-hand with Garcia to develop each new Tatuaje blend. Their relationship is tight, and Pete is often regarded as a member of the family. This strong bond is at the heart of every Tatuaje cigar. Each new cigar they blend and create together is unique and cubanesque. Each subsequent release brought more attention to the brand, and it has a devoted following that continues to drive the brand to new heights.
The Tatuaje Havana VI was the first “new release” Tatuaje to be made at the My Father cigar factory in Nicaragua. Before that, all of the blends had been made in Pepin Garcia’s small factory on Calle Ocho in Miami, FL. This raised a few eyebrows for the Tatuaje community. Could this new line made in Nicaragua be worthy of the love from the brand’s fans, or should it be panned? These were serious questions for Tatuaje’s die-hard consumers, but luckily another fan-favorite was born. In fact, it quickly became one of their best sellers. The blend begins with choice Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos grown on Garcia farms. The wrapper is a beautiful Ecuador Habano leaf that is medium-brown in color and has a nice oily sheen. Tasting notes include flavors of earth, cedar, and pepper with hints of caramel, raisins, and nuts. Tatuaje Havana VI is an exceptional addition to the Tatuaje portfolio that keeps us coming back for more.
