Default Re: Tatuaje Black Label Tubo

I suspected it was the Drac fiasco, but I just don't understand why people act like Pete Johnson killed their puppy because that release fell through. I think it's funny just how emotional some people got about that release and the frenzy it stirred up when it hit some snags. It was like watching grown men devolve into bunch of 13 year old Hanna Montana fans. The bitterness I see in posts by people who used to swear by Tatuaje and grew jaded because a couple of special releases didn't live up to the hype they'd created for themselves makes me think that maybe they only ever liked the IDEA of Tatuaje cigars in the first place. If they had really liked the product, it wouldn't have mattered that the Drac fell flat. From what I've heard, the Boris made up for it. God knows how many tent poles we Habanophiles have to throw out into the lake LE's and RE's in that world are notoriously inconsistant. I've even heard that the Cohiba Gran Reserva box smelled like varnish. Maybe Pete was just trying to emulate Habanos in ALL aspects of business
