I’ve only had one Tat, and not the one reviewed. I did like what I smoked, and now will have to try one of the red tubos.

Love the red tubos. Great display factor first of all, but also just a wonderful cigar in general. Excellent flavor and great construction once you’ve given them a little time to even out humidity. Still like the black tubos more, but the red is a special cigar in and of itself.

This sounds like an awesome smoke.

Nice review Daniel. I’ve liked these cigars even though others around me haven’t. Wish they were a bit cheaper though.

I loved this cigar. I also think they have huge aging potential, but if I had to pick, I would go with the black.

Unfortunately, one of the Red Tubos I have left exploded in my humidor and is prettymuch unsmokeable. Hopefully I can find a replacement before they are all gone.

I have only smoked one of these. I really enjoyed it. Will I buy thenm again… meh maybe just to keep one or two… But I prefer the regular Havana VI line much more economical and awesome!

I’ve had a Tatuaje before but not this one in particular. All the mixed reviews makes me want to try it just to make my own opinion.

Thanks for the review. I agree with Mike…I enjoy the Verocu Red Tubos much more than the Black Tubos.

I totally agree with Boomer, one out of a ever few Verocu tubos have had tar on them. A few of the Verocu No.9’s as well, but those really didnt have any age on them at all.

Great review, I’ ve had the pleasure of smoking this particular cigar, and must say it was quite good.

Nice review. I’ve had quite a few of these already (and many more in the humi) and I have a couple of notes:

1. At least 1 out of every 4 Verocu Red Tubos I’ve had developed a tar oozing at some point during the smoke. Sometimes I re-cut and it’s gone. I’ve heard others have had this problem. Tar ooze seems to be one of those things that there’s lots of theories, but nobody seems to definitively show why or how this happens.

2. I smoked an old Verocu West Coast this weekend that has been sitting for at least 2 or 3 years. The Verocu Red Tubo is very good and I really like it. But it just doesn’t match the old West Coast. Maybe with age it will get better and I’ll change my mind- but I doubt it.

Nice review. I like the red tubo better than the black probably because they don’t seem to have as much body to them.

Thanks Mike,
These are definitely not a knock-you-down type of cigar. They finish smooth and medium with no nicotine kick. I thought the body was perfect for me.
