Over the past few years, Tatuaje has been reaching far back into its 18-year history to bring back new versions of some of its more legendary creations. The subject of today’s review is a re-release of a Tatuaje creation that very few fans got to try the first two times it was sold: the NHC Selección Limitada Capa Especial. Originally released in 2011 with a total production of only 1,400 cigars, the 6 3/4 x 42 box-pressed lonsdale returned the following year with a slightly larger release that still sold out almost immediately.

Earlier this year, Tatuaje’s founder Pete Johnson announced via Instagram that the cigar would return, albeit with some minor changes. First, the name of the newest incarnation is now the Tatuaje LLE Capa Especial—the LLE in the name stands for Limited Lonsdale Extra—and it is no longer a store exclusive for New Havana Cigars. In addition, the bands used on this release have been updated to the newest color scheme that Tatuaje is using—Johnson changed the bands on the Tatuaje Limited releases to help reduce confusion between the one he uses for his releases that incorporate Mexican San Andrés wrappers—and there were 1,000 boxes of 20 cigars produced, with each cigar retailing for $11 before taxes.

One thing that has not changed is the tobacco, which remains a combination of an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper covering a binder and filler tobaccos made up entirely of Nicaraguan leaves. Johnson told halfwheel that the blend is the same as the original, other than the natural variance that can occur with different tobacco crops.

A portion of the Tatuaje LLE Capa Especial boxes debuted at New Havana Cigars packaged in store-specific branding, while the remaining boxes were made available to other select retailers without the NHC branding on the side.
