At some point along the line Pete tweaked this drac blend for the better. The old dracs were too spicy, but the new blend has a touch of sweetness to them. It’s really a great cigar.

Agree with the reviewer above—I like this release better than original. The novelty factor almost made me go for 5 stars, but that aside, it’s a 4 for me. It’s no Karloff, but it’s pretty good!

Never had an OG, but apparently the blend was tweaked in the monster mash and the redux. I loved this and the monster mash version. I will say the first Drac I had was a little wet. Smoked well but the second one I dry boxed for a few hours and it was even better. Highly recommend getting some if you can find them

The usual Tat greatness. Never miss the chance for any Redux, especially this one.

I was a bit underwhelmed by it. A little transition on it. I got pepper, faint licorice and musky earth on the flavor notes. The biggest issue was that the cigar kept going out. I think is greatly affected the experience and getting the intended flavor notes.

Second in the Tatuaje Redux releases of the full-sized Monster Series, the Drac Redux 2 is an awesome torpedo (stake or fang shape depending on your affinity towards vampires). Flavors of bell pepper, earthy, fresh cut grass, oak wood, and a subtle sweetness combine to offer a medium-bodied smoke with rich complexity. Like the original blend, the dark Ecuadorian Habano wrapper covers a Nicaraguan binder and filler. The DR2 smoked well, tight solid ash, plenty of smoke from the slightly tight draw. Some lucky smokers/collectors received the black coffin shaped box, others the more common red one. Regardless, the cigars are the same. Definitely a cigar I’d smoke again.

Very smooth and perfect draw. A bit of spice and dark roasted coffee with earthy notes. Will scoop again if I can get my hands on them!
