Tatuaje

This is the fourth Monster Redux release from Tatuaje. As with original cigar that debuted in 2011, it is 7 1/2 x 52 torpedo named after the monster in the 1941 film The Wolf Man which starred Lon Chaney Jr. in the title role.

The second vitola of the La Riqueza SE is the 6 3/8 x 44 Cazadores vitola that is offered in two different wrapper versions. One is covered in a Connecticut broadleaf rosado wrapper while the other is made with a Mexican San Andrés wrapper.

In October of 2018, Tatuaje unveiled a new collection of limited, Miami-made Tatuaje cigars called Escasos. The following spring, the Selección de Cazador line—commonly referred to as the Brown Label—would get the Escasos treatment, getting a new wrapper and being rolled in South Florida.

This is the fourth edition of Tatuaje’s Monster Series Redux collection. The cigar is based on The Wolfman, a 7 1/2 x 52 torpedo was made with an Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed wrapper covering a binder and filler blend of Nicaraguan tobaccos. 

The 14-count sampler includes all of the existing Monster Series releases in a new vitola as well as the second release of the Creature that debuted in 2021. Each Monster Smash sampler has an MSRP of $175, with 13,000 samplers being made by My Father Cigars S.A. in Nicaragua.

For the 11th year in a row, Tatuaje released a limited edition for the Tobacconists’ Association of America, which includes some of the largest cigar retailers in the U.S. It’s tied for the longest and thickest release in the series.

It’s been a year of many changes for the Cojonú 2012. In addition to a variety of packaging changes, the 6 1/2 x 52 toro extra size is also now available in two new wrapper options.

For 2024, the Limited Lonsdale Extra is available with a broadleaf wrapper. Most stores won’t get their boxes until next week, but New Havana Cigars—the birthplace of this cigar—will begin shipping its allotment tomorrow.

This is one of two new 6 3/4 x 42 lonsdales for 2024. It is limited to just 10,000 cigars.

This shipment includes the new Tatuaje Cojonú 2012 Corojo and Tuxtla, the new book packaging for Cojonú 2012 and the Surrogates Closing Time.

One is a soft launch of the upcoming L’Atelier Côte d’Or La Tâche ’18, one is a new size of the Padilla 1932 Oscuro and the other one is an exclusive from Ferio Tego. All three cigars measure 6 x 46.
