Frequently Asked Questions

What makes box #57 special?

Box #57 is one of only 666 sequentially numbered boxes produced, making it significantly rarer than the unnumbered boxes. Sequential numbering adds substantial collectibility and value for serious Monster Series collectors.

How does the Redux 5 compare to the original 2012 Mummy?

The Redux 5 maintains the same beloved blend as the original but is slightly shorter at 7½ inches versus the original’s 7¾ inches. The flavor profile remains true to the original’s character with its signature Nicaraguan puro construction.

What storage conditions are recommended?

Store at 65-70% humidity and 65-70°F temperature in a properly maintained humidor. The coffin-style box provides additional protection, but proper humidity control ensures optimal aging potential.

Is this suitable for aging?

Yes, the all-Nicaraguan blend with Criollo wrapper develops beautifully over time. Many collectors age Monster Series releases for years, with the cigars becoming smoother and more complex with proper storage.

How many Mummy Redux 5 cigars were produced total?

Total production was limited to 65,000 cigars across 5,000 boxes. Of these, only 666 boxes received sequential numbering, with an additional 34 marked “XX” for special occasions.

What distinguishes the Monster Series Redux line?

The Redux series resurrects the original full-size Monster releases from previous years, giving collectors another chance to acquire these legendary blends that typically sell out immediately upon release.

Why is the closed foot significant?

The closed foot allows smokers to taste the wrapper leaf exclusively for the first few puffs before the full blend emerges, showcasing the quality of the Criollo wrapper before introducing the binder and filler tobaccos.

What is the auction format for this item?

This is a single-lot auction for the complete box #57 containing all 13 cigars in their original coffin-style cabinet packaging. The sequential numbering and pristine condition make this an exceptional collector’s opportunity.
