Default Tatuaje recommendations?

I've never had anything from this line. Frankly I'm underwhelmed with a lot of the stuff I can get at my B&M stores. But I do hear continuously about this line and the mostly positive reviews.

Looking for a couple recommendations. I generally prefer something in a Petit Corona size. An hour or so is about all I can afford (time wise) for a smoke these days.

For that size, the Noella is hard to beat. Of course if you get ten replies, you'll probably get ten different opinions, 7 of them not being in the size you asked about.

I always like the P2 Robusto. If you can find them they are cheap and a good smoke. They are 5x50. The P1 Corona Gorda is close, its 5 5/8x46 and is also a good cheap smoke!

I think they are slightly older lines, and getting harder find, so maybe online is your best choice for those.

I'm really digging the New Havana Cigars Limitada. It is a special edition Tat with the NHC lable on it. I believe they are 10% off this week on the NHC site.

I am the a-typical Tatuaje fan; I don't love a ton of pepper and I can't stomach a full bodied smoke. If you fit anywhere close to this, try the new El Triunfador, which you'll find several sizes of to meet your needs. I absolutely LOVE this stick.

Nice recommendation Matt!

The one in question would be the El Triunfador #5 (4 3/8 x 42).

Well my B&M didn't have Noellas or Havana IV Angeles (red label) but I did pick up two Red Label Nobels, a bit bigger than my preferred size.

But as an unusual score for my B&M, they had 4 sizes of OpusX out, I picked up two Belicoso XXX's.

I love the Noellas and have found that Texcigars.com usually has a great price.
