I was looking at the name in the display case asking how to pronounce it and the owner came over to give him a hand with the pronounciation. The owner says it's a really full smoke, for an experienced smoker only... Without any hesitation, the guy helping me says, "oh, he's an experienced smoker, he really know his stuff".

I was floored. I felt like I had finally made it.

You should like the Tatuaje. For a domestic cigar it has a bit of that Cuban twang. I like em.

Funny how hanging around a cigar board makes you much more knowledgeable. A few years ago I did not know squat. Now at least I can carry on a decent conversation about cigars.
