Tatuaje Mummy Redux 5

The Tatuaje Mummy Redux 5 is a limited edition resurrection of Pete Johnson’s legendary Monster Series, reviving the haunting allure of the original 2012 blend with new collectible distinction. Handcrafted at My Father Cigars in Estelí, Nicaragua, this Churchill-size puro brings back the full Nicaraguan Criollo-wrapped experience, presented in iconic coffin-style cabinet boxes of 13. Only 5,000 boxes were produced for worldwide release, making it a must-have for serious collectors and seasoned Tatuaje enthusiasts.

• Monster Redux Series No. 5: Limited edition, fifth installment in the acclaimed Redux lineup
• Classic Churchill format (7.5 x 47): Delivers extended sessions and nuanced flavor transitions
• All-Nicaraguan construction: Criollo wrapper, binder, and filler showcase Estelí heritage
• Handcrafted at My Father Cigars: Guarantees construction, slow burn, and flavor depth
• Distinct closed foot: Focuses initial draws on wrapper flavor before blend opens up
• Collectible coffin-style box: Each box holds 13 cigars, with 5,000 total produced and 666 sequentially numbered for collectors
• Flavor profile: Earth, charred oak, cocoa powder, white pepper, and underlying subtle sweetness

Staying authentic to the original Monster Mummy, the Redux version delivers a medium-to-full bodied progression, starting earthy and pepper-laden, then unfolding cocoa, charred wood, and subtle sweet notes across a slow-burning profile. The cigar’s closed foot enhances the initial wrapper impression, while the classic vitola allows the blend’s complexity to emerge over a generous 90 to 120-minute session.

Each Redux 5 release celebrates horror cinema and Tatuaje’s tradition of seasonal limited editions. The special packaging and continuing Monster Series theme make this a box both to display and smoke. While approachable, its evolving strength and flavor are best appreciated by experienced smokers seeking classic Criollo depth, traditional craftsmanship, and a unique collectible experience.
