Tatuaje Fausto FT140 Robusto Extra

The Tatuaje Fausto FT140 is Pete Johnson's strength experiment given its most balanced canvas — a 5½ × 52 robusto extra wrapped in dark, oily Ecuadorian Habano Maduro over a deliberately potent Nicaraguan core. Fausto is the amped-up evolution of Tatuaje's original "T" blend: built for smokers who want to feel the ligero.

Construction

A dark, toothy wrapper with serious oil. Cold draw gives black pepper and dark chocolate — fair warning of what's coming. Garcia-school construction keeps the burn even and the draw smooth no matter how hard the blend pushes.

Flavor profile

Full-bodied, full-strength. The first third hits with black pepper, espresso, and charred wood. The middle third deepens into dark cocoa, earth, and a savory meatiness, the strength building steadily. The final third is bold spice and dark coffee to the nub. A 60–75 minute smoke that demands a full stomach and rewards a slow pace.

Pairings & occasion

Late evening, after a serious meal. Pair with a cask-strength bourbon (Stagg Jr.), a rye (Wild Turkey Rare Breed), or a double espresso. Not a beginner's cigar — and proudly so.
