You forgot the El Triunfador and the new El Triunfador, plus the "vintage" line and l'esprit de la verite, plus the "monster" series, and the balcks in your list...the original El Triunfador is basically the Cabaiguan Guapos Maduro that was meant for Europe, but such a high demand in the states that were created that it is not a staple. It has a brownish label in a lancero format. The NEW El Triunfadors will come in 6 difference sizes and is blended differently than the original with different combinations of leaves and filler.

You then have the new "vintage" line which will be have set price similar to padron and those are exactly are what they say they are. They are vintage and will be Tatuaje's "premium" line.

The l'esprit de la verite has been in production basically since 2007. That's when the first crops were planted. In 2008, they were picked rolled and fermented for about 1 year and then they sat in the aging bins for another year. These cigars will are basically 2 years old every batch because in 2008 they planted a whole new crop and in 2009 they planted a new one. Each year the artwork will be different. They too will come in multiple sizes

Then the monster series as you may know will be based off famous "monsters" that started off with the Frank, then this past year the Drac and the Boris. This year will be Leatherface which is based off the Drac cigar but tweaked. It may not be done this year, it depends if the boxes get done by May, says Pete in a recent review.

You have the black label that comes in the Toro size which is a CRA exclusive, robusto (in cello), and the corona gorda (jar release). They were Pete's personal blend of Nicaraguan-grown tobaccos and were limited released. (One of my favorite cigars of all time is the Corona Gorda)...

and as Ted said La Riqueza (Nicaraguan Binder and Filler are encased in a Dark Natural Connecticut Broadleaf Wrapper), Cabaiguan (Connecticut seed Shade Grown Ecuadorian wrapper and Nicaraguan filler), and Ambos Mundos (Using a lesser grade tobacco of the same varieties used in other Tatuaje cigar like color variations and such)... But you also have the Cabaiguan Guapos (It features an Ecuadorian Sun Grown wrapper) and the maduros (the guapos being a silver band on the top and bottom of the Cabaiguan label) and the Ambos Mundos (whose bands will be changing) has 2 the Ecuadorian Sumatra (Red label) and Nicaraguan Habano (yellow label)..

You have the RC 184 and the RC 233 which are huge, the t110 with the same red white blue label which is Hawaiian exclusive, the red and black tubo (which Pete says he won't do anymore). The east and west coast (the west coast was released twice the original Exclusivo Lado Occidential and the 2nd saying west side...the original is 10x better than the 2nd release...and the east being Exclusivo Zona del Este) The verocu no.9 a holts exclusive, the reserva and cojonu lines of the browns (similar to the browns with different wrappers) and I think that's it, if I'm wrong on the information please correct me, I typed this up rather quickly

Thanks, Kevin! I Knew The "Florida Crew" Would Come Through!

This goes to show that I don't know anything about the cigars I smoke. I either like em or I don't...lol. I'd be happy if I had no other Tat's to smoke except Noella Reserva's and Frank's.

I haven't enjoyed a single Tat. Not my bag man.

Don't bother hitting the website just yet as it seems to be under construction as it has been for a couple months now but I think most of the bullet points have been hit in this thread. Love the wealth of knowledge in this group.

if i lived in canada i would make a tat brown label my bride thay are so damn good

To me, the brown labels are more consistent in quality than the reds. I always seem to have fewer plugged sticks with the brown labels. The red label Angeles VI have always been the most flavorful of the red line to me as well as the cheapest.
Try the My Father line that is made by Pepin and his son Jamie. They are excellent sticks with lots of pepper as well a touch of sweetness.

all I know is the Browns and Reds are pretty good. The white line is very mild. and the black line is prob the yummiest...says Vin and I never argue with that guy.
