I have had a few of the private stocks. Overall they were okay, although the cigars themselves were not aged at all, so the taste suffered tremendously. They seemed to be very light, dry as can be, and acrid tasting. The constructoin all the ones I have smoked has been tremendous and the ash if...

Well tell your buddy to go across the river to Gloucester, VA. They have a shop at the point called TR's tobacco, they have the best selection in the area. Being from Richmond and just moving back here, I cant find a shop that has good ambiance and selection of cigars. Also, if you like Gurkha...

preembargo, I have access to basically all the pepin blue label, series jj, padilla miami, habana leon (phatash.com), and of course the tatuaje products. All so far are great products, although all are very very strong and full bodied. The only downfall (or upside for lovers of a strong smoke)...

I live in the yorktown, va area and spend a lot of time in richmond, va also.

The ones I have had have been absolutely fantastic. The construction is top notch, the burn is good if you dont keep em to wet (keep em around 63%-65%), and the taste is very cubanesque (ie: being powerful and spicy, but not overpowering). I have smoked most of the sizes personally, my fave...

The Tatuaje's they have in stock are the noella for 7.00, the regio for 9.00, the pyramade (cant remember the actual name) for 10.25, and the have a unfinshed one called the no.2 that is 5.50 (looks to be a fat corona gorda; 6 x 52).

I believe so, Ill double check tomorrow about the MSRP. the Tatuaje is actually sold below MSRP though. But the prices will definitely be much less than your area, due to the low VA tax rate on tobacco.

Im planning on picking up some padilla miami 8/11 singles in a few days. Im just wondering what is the best size(s) to get. I hear the lancero is pretty good, i just have had trouble with smaller ring gauge cigars burning hot during the last quarter, so im a little hestitant, but will be more...

Hey guys, I know that a lot of the brands talked about here, particularly the Padron 26's, Tatuaje/Pepin products are hard to come by in some areas. I personally am lucky enough to live in an area where these are almost given out. The local smoke shop next to my house has the ENTIRE line of...

box of tatuaje regios, don pepin jj belicosos, and some tatuaje no 2.'s

I have an xA myself and love it. I drive about 500-1000 miles a week (mostly interstate) and if you drive right, youll actually get much more than the 37 mpg highway. I average close to 45 mpg highway between myself and richmond, va (about 75-80 miles) and since I have to parallel park just...
