Good evening Kevin. I hope you are well.

How is the PJ? What are they like taste wise? Curious, as I almost grabbed some on the auction site the other day, but hesitated as I just was not sure...

Still at the office, but I am heading home soon and will be joining you. I have a Tatuaje Miami in mind

Hi Mark,

I hope you are well too! All is great here now that the weather is getting much better!

The PJ is really a great smoke, but a different flavor profile due to the unique wrapper. It is a very smooth and full bodied cigar. I bought about 12 of them. If you like a full bodied and very flavorful smoke, you must try a couple. They are limited and pretty much sold out everywhere.

Go for it!

Thank you brother.

Sounds interesting. I will grab a few if I see them again. They come up on a couple of the auction sites I frequent. Only Candela/Claro wrapper I have tried was a Fuente but they were designed to be very mild. Even milder than the old Macanudos. Although back then all cigars were milder.
I read a couple of magazine reviews and with Nicaraguan filler and binder and an Oscuro cap that should give it much more body and strength than a full Claro. Cool design for sure.

Thanks for the review.

Changed my mind and grabbed a Liga Privada Undercrown instead. Excellent smoke!
Have a great weekend.

Definitely a much better cigar than the Fuentes! I never wanted a candela cigar after having one of those. This one changed my mind.

Have a great weekend!

Another top ten day here, so I have chosen one of the best for a relaxing smoke.

Long 15 hour day. Not much time so a Tatuaje petite corona. One of my favorite small cigars. Plenty of flavor for a little guy.
