What's the general consensus on Glenlivet 18?
What price can you get it for?  I'd go Glenmo over Glenliv, IMO...Joe?

Not much of a scotch guy, and I've only had a few pours of each.  From memory of tastings, I did enjoy the Glenmorangie 18 more.
+1 Glenmorangie over Glenlivet any day.

Good morning, gents…drive by - holts.com High Noon special "House" Tat's…never tried 'em, can't recommend, but thought you might want to have a look…catch up later...
Tatuaje Verocu #9, are excellent cigars. I have not bought them in a year, but did send some out. DavidOy even liked them, and so did Will.
Good afternoon Ken!  Do they still make the Tat Verocu(that in the red tubo)?
No, or the black tubo. I am pretty sure. These are made about once a year for Holts. Very good cigar, IMO.
Good to know, will keep a lookout

Anyone try the Tattoo yet?  How's it smoke?
Only hear that it doesn't smoke to it's comparative price-point, no experience here due to the not-so-positive reviews
I think I heard that too but I got mine from CF and I didn't factor in price.

Compared to it's price point against other cigars at a B&M, it's fine.  Can't get much for $5 these days in store, ya know?  Compared to $5 per stick online with bulk order discounts (i.e. getting cigars for $5 each that retail for $8+ in stores), not so much.  Just my opinion.

To be fair, though, it's a $3.70 cigar. $225 less 40 at Famous, $185/50 =  3.7.  How does it compare at that price?

I didn't really enjoy it, so I wouldn't pay any price going forward.  It's fun to find the lowest possible price with various coupons and whatnot but MSRP is the best comparison, IMO.  Not totally fair to say its $3.70 per cigar because you can't get just one for that price.

And I'd be more willing to call it a $3.70 cigar if you could order a five pack regularly on a sale site such as CigarMonster for that per stick price.  The fact that you have to buy 50 of 'em, well, not quite the same.  I would not want 50 of them.

Not as good as the EPC Core Short Run 2013's I got at $2.99.  But then, that was an extraordinary deal.  I paid $4@ for the Tattoos I got.  I'd buy 'em for $4.

Bottom line for me is that if I don't enjoy a cigar I won't pay any amount for it, I'd rather not smoke!
