    Tats

    Sad to see, at least they aren't totally going away:

    Tatuaje Removes Ambos Mundos, El Triunfador, La Casita Criollo & La Riqueza From Price List - halfwheel

    I always liked the LCC.

    That sucks I always enjoyed the LCC as well.
    I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

    I didn't know if I should click "Like" as there's no "Dislike". Seems like several cigars are going down after the FDA crap. Not sure if these are?.....
    Like my father before me, I will work the land,
    And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

    According to the article, no, not FDA related. It kinda sounds like they are just trimming a few under performers back and focusing on the more popular lines. They arent even eliminating any of them completely, just moving them to small batch releases or event sticks.

    Well they damn sure have enough in their line that things won't suffer too bad even if they dropped them. They went from a little boutique to having more cigars than Carter has pills in a fairly short time....

    Seems as if they've caught the Gurkha and Rocky Patel business model.

    Maybe a bit except for one thing, the PJHC sticks all range from fantastic to good.

    Yeah, I don't think it set the world on fire.

    No idea if this is true or not, but I had heard from someone who was relatively well connected that a lot of the regular production Tat blends were all fairly similar. It may have been Seth from the now defunct Seth's Humidor, not positive though. Whoever it was, the statement was basically that there is a core "Tatuaje" blend and for each new cigar line they swap one or two leaves and that's it. If that's the case, what they are doing would make sense. You would have far more raw materials available for the better selling blends. That all could be a bunch of for all I know.
