Let me preface this by saying that I've smoked a ton of NCs in my day, far too many to remember! So when I went into the cooler the other night to pick out that night's smoke, I reached for a smoke that I've never tried before. It was traded to me in the Newbie Sampler Trade by IndyRob. It was a ....Tatuaje, but that's all I know and man was it good. I can honestly say that besides the CAO Black, this is the best NC that I've ever had! It was everything that a premo should be; great taste, slow and even burn, and it got better as I continued to smoke it. I havee to give props to Rob, that smoke made my day!! Thanks Again, bro!

What was it and how do I get me hands on more? I did look online, it looks like a Tatuaje Noella from Pepin, but everywhere I go, they are sold out and the prices are out of this world!! Is that what I smoked, Rob?

If so, I guess that means that I'm officially a Pepin whore in training :)

the noellas are some of my favorite, I love having them in my cooler at all times.
around $150 online, I usually by them here in LA for the same price if I pay cash.
they have such a nice tang and after a few of those, you won't even look at the CAO blacks ever again. I have a whole box in my other cooler, just aging away

I just found them at Holt's, but I also saw Old Henry from Peppin....Has anyone tried them, if so are they worth the price??

Chuck is the Old Henry person to ask. He likes the robusto size lot, says the Churchill size is very strong. I sent a Churchill to Fredneck recently, he like it very much he smoked over the weekend. From what I have heard the Old Henry are spicy and strong like the Tatuaje brown but less complex.

This is my every day smoke. Lots of spice and a little sweetness. Plenty bold
