Well my twenty-fourth birthday went off without a hitch. Had a great time with my family and let my waistline expand with some nice ice cream cake from Dairy Queen. I decided to celebrate and got out a Tatuaje reserve SW that had been resting in my humidor for a while. A great smoke that lasted almost two full hours. The taste was very elegant and balanced. I’d say it was a medium bodied cigar with a light hickory finish that wasn’t too short or too long, but just right. With the length of the cigar I expected a major amount of spice, but was pleasantly surprised with the lack of spice in favor of flavor. A leathery cigar that was earthy and woody and never dull. A great way to celebrate a birthday and I highly recommend to all. :thumbs:

I also have to say that I highly agree with what Devil Doc has said on storage rh for Pepin cigars. I’ve had great burns with humidity between 60%-62%, in fact I store the majority of my sticks at this rh and have yet to have problems.

Happy B-Day Mark Twain! Looks like a good smoke.
 
Happy Belated Birthday and a fine choice for a Birthday cigar.
 
I made the trip to the closest real B&M today to stock up on Tatuajes. I picked up a couple of the Reserva SW because I have heard so many good reviews. I plan to let them sit for a few months to a year before smoking one. Though I don't see that happening...

I have yet to have a bad Tatuaje - since the first one in Austin.

Happy belated birthday.
 
Hope your Birthday was as good as the cigar.


BTW: Have you ever thought about hand modeling, those are some great pics!!! :laugh:

I am glad your birthday smoke was a success. Watch out if a certain member wants to hold your hand, though. And ditto on the birthday spankings!

Not that there's anything wrong with that! ;)


Just funnin'! :D
 
Happy Birthday! I have two of these sitting, and I might have to fire one up soon. Thanks for the review and pictures. SOunds like you had a very enjoyable time.
