Tatuaje’s famed T110 limited release first arrived in 2009, being based on a blend that was so strong it was code named “Thermonuclear.” This cigar later evolved into more familiar brands such as Fausto and Avión; but in 2021 the T110 returned, now accompanied by two new variations of the blend: T110 Reserva Broadleaf and T110 Capa Especial. Each version uses similar core recipes of ligero-heavy all-Nicaraguan tobaccos, with the original being topped with a Habano wrapper, the Reserva using Broadleaf, and the Capa Especial a ruddy Ecuadorian Sumatra. It was the latter that we gravitated towards, offering a punchy profile, while showing more balance and nuance than its siblings. The cigar is medium-plus in body, unloading with fiery red pepper at ignition; sweet caramel is quick to tame the heat, being balanced by a gentle saltiness and a fun PayDay candy bar combination of nougat, caramel, and peanuts.
