That's how I've always pronounced it, too. (In my head, that is. I can actually read silently.) It's probably because of my familiarity with foam beer can insulators.
Okay sirius and madurofan, to clear this up you're both sorta wrong. Everything that has to do with cigars is in Spanish. So to make life easier if you want to hear how something is supposed to sound find someone that can read and speak Spanish and they'll tell you exactly what it's supposed to sound like. Tatuaje, the last part is not hey or he (which confuses people into thinking it's "he" like: He walks the dog.) it's actually "heh" with the first h sounding like the h in the word hero, the e sounding like the e in the word flex and the last h is silent. Just for extra points the word tatuaje actually means tattoo.
Also criollo is pronounced kree-oh-yo not yo-yo!! Only the double ll makes the y sound.
Hey that's not funny I work with a bunch of Danes. Them be fightin' words. Also how do you know I wasn't just cold and wanted to take a quilt with me, huh??!!
