I just wanted to let everyone know that this is my first review. I usually don't even write down my experiences, so any criticism would be appreciated. I'm also a noobie smoker, as well as a lightweight when it comes to nicotine even though I'm a giant.
Tatuaje Havana VI 1/10/2014
Angeles - Petite Corona - 4 5/8 x 42
Dark brown Wrapper, very soft to touch. Prelight smell is barnyard with a sweet tobacco as well. Small veins, yet visible.
First Third (5:38PM) Plenty of smoke, nice easy draw. Sweet tobacco core. Smooth like aged tobacco, yet has some pepper zing. Chocolate on the
draw, then back to the earthy core. Hints if leather here and there. Clean white ash, held on for about an inch at a time.
Second Third (5:54 PM) Flavors are still the same, however there is a touch of cedar. The leather is now the main flavor. Great stick so far. My
favorite flavor profile. Just wish it was a bit more complex. Pepper is non existent this third. Smoke got a bit wispy too. This third is
taking a while longer. My wife called and I couldn't get her off the phone.
Third Third (6:15) Knocked the ash off to type. Leather is the only remaining flavor from the get go. Sweet, musty tobacco is now the
forefront. Nice woody, nutty flavors. Its staying cool,which is usually unusual for small ring gauges, in my experiences. Still haven't eaten
dinner, and had a light lunch, yet there is no head rush. Final time 6:27 PM
49 Minute smoke, probably closer to 45 if my wife hadn't called. Overall a very nice, medium stick. One of the better constructed sticks I've
smoke over the past month. I must have had some serious bad luck until now. Slow burner for being a small stick, too. The flavors are wonderful,
but there aren't many transitions. Not boring, but not complex. I would recommend this stick to anyone. I really liked the vitola.
Personal score:
90
