Don't kill the messenger folks! Just thought some people around here would wanna know about these.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

hate talk or not, I don't care. I tried the Drac and the Boris and liked them and I hope I will be able to get my hands on one of those 'faces' as well.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

Good! Liking them or not was not what that comment was about. You've read the old threads about Tat and monster series, they always spiral down :(

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

I'll be honest and I will be looking for these when they come out. May not go with a full box but a 5er or two will be in my sights.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

Anyone else notice the Tat products from Dupont? Im guessing it will be somewhere in the $400-$500 neighborhood. Another expensive lighter without a case, no less.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

I'll be on the lookout for the them... but won't be disappointed if I don't score some. +50 rg cigars aren't my cup-o-tea.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

$500 for the set.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

Wow, he has a lot of 56 RG coming out.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

LMAO, actually, "The Face" has no band (your 1st criteria) and will also come in bundles without the box (your second criteria) so...........

I AM looking forward to this cigar and all of the new releases. He puts out some damned good cigars. He also has said in interviews that he has fun with the cigars and enjoys making LE sticks. So if you don't like then don't buy. Remember what mom's have been saying for generations,"If you don't have something nice to say then don't say anything at all."

Besides, I think the OP was asking for info and not opinions even though I just gave mine.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

If you have ever met Pete you would be able to tell instantly that this is the case. His love for cigars and the business is self evident.

I am greatful that the monster series is continuing as for a period of time that was in question due to the comments / problems created by the availability from last years release. It simply was not fun to continue.

As for information, I would appreciate any info as well. I do not think anyone has smoked on yet so it may be scarce...

Maybe Pete will chime in on the blend, tasting notes, etc. Better yet, if he could send me one, I will post a review immediatly....:r

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

The Face will have a band. If you look at the photo close and there are better photos in an older post the band will be made with a lighter shade wrapper. I'm hoping these will not be as difficult to find as releases in the past but I guess only time will tell.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

Found it.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

That is not a band, it is another piece of tobacco...

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

If I had a spare $500 I'd be all over this. The cutter and lighter look awesome, and I'd love to be able get a box of the monster series on release, since I really wasn't into boutique cigars when the previous series were released.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

Tasty!
To bad 3 B&M's screwed me out of an overpriced box last year, Pfft, the hell with it, still got a partial box of the Franks and I am good to go ;)
No hype for me

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

The I think the cutter and the lighter are one piece, which makes it even more appealing to me. It's one of the Dupont Maxijet cutter/lighter combos.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

I think its a great great concept, and the dedication to try to personify a character within a cigar is a really interesting idea. Make me want to look up every cigar I smoke for the off-chance it has a cool back story that might allow me to enjoy it further...

That being said, 56rg is big. Almost too big for my liking. I will try to find one, but I wont be disappointed if it doesn't come through for me.

Re: Tat's New Monster Series
 

Maybe true, but it still has got to be a kick ass cigar. So far, the monsters have been less than stellar, especially given the hype.
