Tatuaje Tuxtla cigars revel in the region that has brought you all those beautiful Mexican San Andrés wrapper leaves that have adorned chart-topping smokes for years. Bangers like the EPC La Historia, My Father La Opulencia, Alec Bradley Tempus, and Rocky Patel Vintage 2006 all sport MSA tobacco as the crown on the head of each blend, and it has been a huge reason for the flavor explosion each stogie brings.
The taste of this particular leaf is unmistakable. Mexican San Andrés tobacco is typically fermented into an earthy Maduro that always brings a signature pepper kick. It’s the kind of flavor that grabs you immediately but gives you so much richness to sink into. It keeps you coming back with a big personality that always calls to mind the volcanic soil in which it grew.
Tatuaje Tuxtla cigars are a re-blending of several popular Tatuaje smokes. The Avion 13, Tatuaje 7th, and Tatuaje T110 are all back and transformed by the new Mexican San Andrés Tuxtla wrapper leaf. As company founder Pete Johnson explained, “The San Andrés wrapper really shows how much the wrapper can change the flavor of a cigar. We are very particular when using San Andrés, making sure we use it on blends that can stand up to the heavier flavor. I think these blends work perfectly.”
So these are already sturdy blends that are getting kicked up a notch. Hope you like stogies turned up to full flavor, body, and strength!
For fans of the original blends, this is a fresh take on some combinations that have been running through the company lab for years now. They’ve really refined things and almost always create a stogie worth smoking. For those that are new to the lines, this is a heck of an entry to some of the core profiles of Tatuaje.
