The Tatuaje Cabaiguan Guapos 46 Natural arrives in boxes of 20 sticks, packing 5.6"×46 corona gorda vitolas with Ecuadorian sun-grown wrappers. Priced at $171 per box, this Nicaraguan puro flexes medium strength with Cuban-style triple caps. Rolled at My Father's factory, it's like the original Cabaiguan line went to espresso school - same core blend but dialed up a notch.
First Third: Opens with Nicaraguan pepper bite that settles into cedar planks and roasted cashews. The Ecuadorian wrapper keeps things creamy like latte foam, though construction can run slightly tight on initial puffs.
Middle Third: Bread crust notes emerge with baking spices - think cinnamon dusted on espresso shots. Smoke output increases, leaving oily residue on the lips. Watch for canoeing if rushed.
Final Third: Leather tones muscle in, blending with lingering creaminess. Nic hit creeps up around the band point. Better to nub it early than fight tar buildup in last inch.
The triple cap peels cleanly with straight cut. Wrappers show minimal veins though some sticks feel denser than others. Burn requires occasional touch-ups past halfway point. Best paired with mineral water or light rum to highlight the creamy core.
