  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

So Pete, any more on these? I know he info here http://tatuajecigars.com/scoop/, but will there be a site where we can see which dealers have/will have each cigar? When are ya'll going to do the lotto? Have you gotten a taste of the Frank yet? How long will there be between each subsequent release? How different will the profiles be on each cigar?

You know basic stuff like that.:sarcastic

Are these an extension of a line or a unique cigar in its own? Either way I'm digging the Halloween theme of these cigars (released on october 13th, 666 boxes,cigar named frank, ect.)!

Just an update, no word on this yet, but one of my local shops is hoping to be on the list and was going to call Pete today to bug him. Pete if your reading this hook up Tobacco World in Pompano, I got a box with my name on it if you do. Anyway, has anyone heard more on these yet? What will MSRP be?

Pete will be in Nic until the 13th, so I wouldn't expect to hear much until then. He revealed to us in another thread that the Frank will be the Taino blend with a broadleaf wrapper and in a 6 x 60 vitola.. Yes, he has smoked one but i did not get a response on the experience, obviously they are going to be good. Next years release will be called the Drac, don't know anything else about it other than he and Dan from New Havana smoked one this weekend. I'm with you Hendy, I am ridiculously excited about this. We need to form a little coalition of Tat lovers to make sure that we can lock some of these down. I have done all the pre release work I can do and have gotten promises from every retailer i can think of or know well enough to recerve a box.

I am sure the price we be correct to the stick. As we all know, Pete is a righteous brother and not part of the "establishment".

WOW. All I can say is WOW.

Sat down with the BIL JoeGar today and cracked the coffin. Great presentation, beautiful stick with a great color. The band color was a great choice.

This was a treat to smoke. Lit up and burned perfect. Was nice and sweet all the way through. Caught the cocoa at about 1/2 way in this bad boy. The aroma carried more of the cocoa than the draw. But there was something there we could not put our hands on. There was a flavor that you got on the exhale, but just for a few seconds. I just can't put my finger on it. I will have to smoke another and see if I can figure it out. The burn was absolutely great. Stick stayed cool the whole way and helped the taste stay consistant. And of course, a perfect razor sharp burn with a looooong ash.

Thanks Pete for another excellent stick. Glad I got a bunch. Uh, I mean a couple. hehehe.
