Tatuaje Havana VI Verocu Blue
A spinoff of a spinoff: if you're talking TV programming, this isn't typically a recipe for success... Thankfully, the reverse is often true in the world of premium cigars, such as with Pete Johnson's latest <em>spin</em> on the Havana VI series with Tatuaje Havana VI Verocú Blue.
The Tatuaje Havana VI (aka "Tatuaje Red Label") line dates back to 2006, where Pete Johnson sought to provide a slightly more mild accompaniment to the brand's beloved Brown Label cigar, moving production from Miami to Nicaragua to allow for wider availability at more attractive price points. The line proved popular with cigar enthusiasts, and the sub-labeled Tatuaje Havana VI Verocú was added one year later, bringing about a stronger profile for the demanding palate.
Finally, the Tatuaje Havana VI Verocú Blue cigar maintains the spirit of its predecessors, now boasting a 100% García puro recipe, with all tobaccos grown on the Garcías' own farms throughout Nicaragua. This was spurred by a new tobacco ingredient—Corojo '99 rosado—which the Garcías have slowly begun rolling out over the past couple years. This fine-tuned leaf is used as the wrapper on the Tatuaje Havana VI Verocú Blue, being joined by an all-Nicaraguan interior recipe. The resulting experience provides a new twist on an old favorite, offering a medium-full body and a Cuban-esque profile of toasted cedar, zesty pepper, buttered toast, and bright medium-roast coffee.
