Quick Smoke: Tatuaje Black (CRA Exclusive)
18 Oct 2015
Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.
Over the summer I renewed my Cigar Rights of America membership by buying a ten-cigar sampler that included this special Tatuaje Black Toro. Since the size can only be purchased as part of the CRA sampler, I hadn’t smoked one since I reviewed one six years ago. The cigar features the same flavors I’ve come to expect from the Black Label line, including leather, bread, and subtle spice. But it’s a good bit stronger than the recent Petit Lancero and Corona Gorda sizes I’ve smoked. Although not my favorite size for this blend, it’s still an excellent, well-made cigar and, especially since you have to join Cigar Rights of America to get one, it is easy to recommend.
Verdict = Buy.
