Saw a 6x50 tatuaje brown label with a band from a humidor, knew it was 50 rg because it was right next to a regios, but half an inch longer. Is this a Tainos someone chopped an inch and a quarter off of? Or what is it? Does anyone have an idea? It isn't a new release, my friend doesn't remember where he got it from. I've never heard of any tatuaje limited 6x50 with a band on it. Wrapper looks the same shade as the regios, same texture....?

Some were close, are you sure about the length/RG?

Yeah I'm sure. I've almost memorized that guide, it wasn't any I am familiar with. I really think the only option is that someone cut mold off the foot of a Tainos and then passed it down the line. I know the outlaw is the same, but it is bandless....so I'm stumped..
But the smell, texture, wrapper color, etc. all seem legit.
Miami FF? Not sure if any of these had a band on them.

Maybe you're thinking of the J21, but the Regios is 5-1/2".

Some of you may remember my question on this post a month ago. I got around to smoking it tonight. 6x50 (standard toro) with a tatuaje brown label attached. Did not appear to be cut from a longer size. Smelled similar to a regios, slightly a half shade lighter than the regios.
Fired it up: burn was perfect, flavors were tatuaje-ish, but with a strong strong graham-cracker and honey flavor to it. It was not like any brown label I have had. But it was very Pete Johnson-ish, and Pepin-ish. Reminded me of the flavor of a My Father (except the wrapper smell and aroma was different, and had more body than an MF). It was quality....
Has anyone had a tatuaje product with similar profile to this? I'm talking teddy grahams! It was nice, but I'm stumped, my friend is stumped, either someone switched bands on a good stick, or this is some wierd stuff someone picked up from an event that doesn't exist....
I know my tats well, and I know quality when I taste it. But I'm stumped.

I think I know what this is. Was it a bit lighter in body than the normal brown labels? I'll bet you it was a Tatuaje Series P toro (6x50). They have a white label. Someone either rebanded it on purpose to commit fraud by selling it at a higher price, or they lost the band somehow and just made a mistake.
Either way, I think the white labels are very nice, one of the best cigars in the world at their retail price. "Teddy Grahams" discribes almost exactly how they are for me--a nice, slightly sweet graham cracker flavor.
Nah, couldn't have been an 03 ciggy, those are 6.5 x 52, and the wrapper is ligero. This wasn't your typical cojonu flavor profile either. My friend has got a few of those lying around waiting for the next time we have an hour or two, different coloration and all.
But the series P theory sounds about right! I'll hunt down a few of those and try them and see. It was good! Just not as full as a usual brown. It reminded me of an SW (non-maddie) but the SW wasn't as graham-crackerish. NJStone, you might have cracked the case!
