New Tatuaje Cigars For 2026
This weekend is the Premium Cigar Association (PCA) trade show, where companies from across the cigar industry will be showing off their latest creations. Pete Johnson of Tatuaje Cigars is expanding some of his core lines with new sizes which will be on display at the show and are expected to ship to tobacconists this summer.
Anniversaries are a big deal in the cigar world and are often celebrated with commemorative new smokes. This year marks the twentieth anniversary for Tatuaje’s Havana VI line and two new regular production sizes are joining the ranks, bringing the line to nine vitolas. Series B measures 5 3/8 inches by 48 ring gauge and is crafted with a tapered foot. Series E is a parejo measuring 5 3/8 by 52. Both share the same blend: oscuro Ecuador Habano wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and filler.
The softly pressed cigars have the same suggested retail price ($11 each) and come packed in boxes of 24. The cigars are adorned with secondary bands denoting their commemorative status.
Tatuaje also has a 20th anniversary version of Tatuaje Black—although it is one year early, as the brand was created in 2007. In advance of this milestone, the line is getting two additional sizes: Private Reserve Robusto, measuring 5 by 50 and topped with a fuma-style head ($12); and Private Reserve Torpedo, 6 1/8-by-52 ($13). The blend for Black is all-Nicaraguan, including its sun grown Criollo wrapper. Shipping in boxes of 20, both sizes feature a soft box pressing and come with secondary anniversary bands.
These new cigars will bring the line up to seven, and one of those core sizes made recent headlines. The Tatuaje Black Petite Lancero is Cigar Aficionado’s No. 3 Cigar of 2025.
The Connecticut broadleaf-wrapped edition of El Triunfador (now known as El Triunfador Original) is getting its third size: a 6 3/8-by-43 lonsdale called Cazadores. Intended to be medium-bodied, the cigar is made with Nicaraguan binder and filler, retails for $12 and ships in boxes of 25.
While some lines are growing, some are shrinking. Tatuaje’s Broadleaf Collection, which previously consisted of ten sizes, will have five vitolas retired. The K222, Unicos, Regios, J21 and Noellas will remain in production with new boxes. Previously, the line came in boxes of ten but now will ship in 21-count boxes to match the company’s Miami-made Brown Label boxes.
Like most of Tatuaje’s portfolio, these cigars are all made in Nicaragua at the My Father Cigars factory.
