Tatuaje began in Miami in 2003 as a small operation in Miami's Little Havana section. Over time, the small brand, made by José "Pepin" Garcia, gained a very loyal cult following. Today, most of Tatuaje's production has moved to Nicaragua and his cigars have gone well beyond mere cult status. But brand owner Pete Johnson has kept his core line in Miami. Now known as "Brown Label" among fans, the original sizes are produced in a small factory situated behind the My Father Cigars headquarters in Doral, Florida. It's a quaint little space with a few rolling tables dedicated to making small quantities of Brown Label cigars. The Cabinet Noellas are presented in a slide-lid cabinet, highly aromatic and dense with leather, spice and cinnamon.
