Pull the trigger John. You could unload them if you don't like them I'm sure. I've heard great things

waiting for one of my sources to get them in. either rahul or mark. i love the belle encre shape and all reservas are great so i'm pretty sure i won't have to unload any. except maybe to bomb some people.

Have read some of the reviews but wanted to hear first hand opinions from the forum. I smoked a few of the Belle Encre's and Bon Chasseur's and was somewhat disappointed. Not two of the better Tat's around, IMHO.

Must not be a big seller. Thought there were 1700 boxes made. Maybe people don't realize you can get them for 165 shipped. I passed at 242. Maybe more were released.

That's still a pretty small release. Minus all the review sites, ect, any further releases prolly wouldn't be in the travel humi thing. Any fledgling hoarders out that wanna be tat ho's, this is your ground floor. Keep em sealed.

5000 lil monsters
10000 jars
500 CQ1 ??
500 Little Boris ??
1994 Belle reserva

Curious myself. Wasn't too impressed with the regular Tatuaje Belle Encre. Recently, had the LE WCD 127 and it was pretty good.

I think it is brown label like the Belle Encre Reserva, but a tweaked brown label. Was comparing the regular Belle Encre with the WCD 127. It was a LE Tat for W. Curtis Draper last Friday and Saturday in D.C. It was quite a long smoke, but a pretty good smoke.

For $242 I would rather buy the cheaper noellas or regios reserves. For $165 I would consider buying these, not sure I have seen that price though.


There were less of these made then the CQ1?

Yeah, you gotta watch out for those new guys, particularly this year's crop.

Smoked one. It was a Tatuaje Reserva. Had a nice flavor shift as it smoked threw to the wide point and seemed better fresh than the Tat black CG I had yesterday. I think my favorite tat broad leaf is still the PCR, which is probably the easiest to get. I don't think I'll be chasing these, but if I see a few left at a local B&M I might politely ask if I can keep the box if I buy the last ones Herfing
