Quick Smoke: Tatuaje Seleccion de Cazador 7th
31 Oct 2010
Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,†“hold,†or “sell.â€
Around this year’s industry trade show, Pete Johnson announced multiple new sizes for his Tatuaje lines, including this “7th” size, which is the first full-size Seleccion de Cazador to be made in Don Pepin’s Nicaraguan factory instead of in Miami. The well-constructed vitola (5.6 x 46)Â features classic Pepin woody spice along with toasty and meaty notes. For those of you worried that not being crafted in Miami may mean this is a lesser Tatuaje, rest assured. This new size is every bit as good as the original six cigars in the blend.
Verdict = Buy.

If that's the same band as the Miamis then it's kinda annoying and dilutes the brand, kinda like the Padilla "Miami" which isn't a bad cigar at all, but isn't really what it claims to be.
