I'm just curious to see why people are losing interest in them after so much hype on the boards for the last year or so.
I think a lot of people have been turned off by some of Pete's limited releases. I know a lot of people including several shops that were not happy with the monster series this year in terms of distribution, cost, the boxes smelling like crap. . .

Also, for the CC smoker, Tatuajes are on the upper end of the price scale for regular release items. There are a lot of really good CCs that are cheaper.

So taken together, I can see why some people have been turned off by them. For me, they are my favorite NC cigars and I will continue to buy them because I like to smoke them. I try not to obsess over the limited stuff as I have had pretty good luck obtaining most of the releases.

Smoke what you like.
