Yea, so sue me, another Tatuaje review.  I can’t help it.  Pete Johnson and Don Peppin know how to make cigars that I like.  The Cabiaguan is different than their usual fair though.  It is more of a medium body.  And this little petite cigar is a perfect smoke when you don’t have much time.  I have been drawing myself more and more towards these and little coronas lately b/c of the time involved.  I still like to have good flavor though.  And that is why I bought these. 
  


Appearance: This is actually a rough looking cigar.  There is no label and it honestly looks like a little kid made these.  6/10

Construction: There were a few that had some soft spots and with as thin as these are, could mean some hot burning.      5/10

Burn:   Honestly, there were no issues until I got right to the very end.  These performed very well and I was surprised.        9/10

Aroma:  A little bit of hay and grass but not much.    8/10

Draw: Fairly loose but otherwise not bad for a little cigar.         8/10

Flavor: This is where this little guy shines.  Great plumes of smoke with lots of flavors.  Grapes (weird, I know), hay, grass and soil.      10/10

Availability: Good.  You can get these anywhere.    9/10

Personal Overall Experience: I am very happy with these.  It is not something I would smoke for a special occasion but for what it is (and the cost – I actually got a cabinet of 50 for $85.00 on cigar bid after I tried a few from Alcorns), it is a great buy.      25/30

Total: 80/100
