This Geek Critique has been generously sponsored by mike.casey (Mike).

The Cigar: Tatuaje Tattoo

The Hype: The buzz has been flying over the reintroduction of the Tatuaje Tattoo series, which originally appeared in 2011 in a limited edition version. The cigar was massively popular, and for good reason, a great blend without the boutique price tag. There is no question why the new Tattoo should be any different, seeing as how it comes with an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper and an enticing mix of Nicaraguan filler leaves. Medium bodied and bursting with notes of cocoa, leather, pepper and a slight sweetness.

The Reviewers:

1. Rammstein142 (Tim)
2. Vroomp (Brad)
3. freakydeakydutchman (Steve)
4. johncw (John)
5. Chrism305 (Chris)

Due Date: May 10, 2015

Note: A reviewer who posts their review late will receive neutral feedback. A reviewer who does not post at all will receive negative feedback. There are always exceptions to the rule and a reasonable excuse for tardiness or a no show will be respected and thus not counted against the reviewer. Our sponsoring members and our administrators make the choice of who is to participate in any particular Geek Critique and can be better informed of their choices with this new initiative in place.

Thanks again to Mike for taking this one on and providing the cigar. THANKS!! And happy smokin'

Have yet to find a Tatuaje I don't enjoy. Great stick, great sponsorship, come on geeks, jump on this one.

If I wasn't already committed to another GC, right after this one, I would be all over it.
