Fellow Bums
Everyone knows that Tatuaje's Monsters are the bees knees of cigars. They are meant to be smoked, not hoarded and collected. So, break out your Monsters and smoke them! Full size, Little, Pudgy or Skinny, it doesn't matter. Smoke 'em!
Post any and all Monsters smoked during October here. If it's only 1 for the month or one a day, doesn't matter. Set 'em on fire!
Also, if you have any Monster related discussion items, let's post and discuss them here.
Get ready, because October 1st will be here soon. Much like at the Orgy, let's get it on!

The Skinny Jason I smoked awhile back was easily one of the best cigars I’ve ever had. Maybe I’ll head down to my trusted B&M today and see what they have in stock. Great thread!

In order to get one of those fancy badges all monsters must be smoked without pants, correct ?
jhedrick83 - can you confirm this please ?

Yes, but it’s an honor system. Pictures to verify are to be sent to Jeremy directly. At his office. Taped to the outside of the box.

Great thread- I'm a Halloween/Horror junkie and have enjoyed this line up.
Naysayers will tell you it's a gimmick and I can't say they're wrong, but I go in with full understanding of what I'm getting into. That said, I've never chased down a 3x cost "dress box". I buy 'em and smoke 'em.
IMO, the Krueger was a fantastic release worthy of regular production.
If any of you Bums get a line on this year's "The Bride", let me know - I'm IN!

What's new I am shooting the wad early and using up the only Monster I have before October even gets here. Also I have no idea which one this is because I know less about monster band colors than I do about rocket science.

A gentleman does not enjoy activities with a pudgy mummy and take pictures. That is what the guy in the corner with the video camera is for.

Smoked a Skinny Jekyll and a Skinny Hyde last night for numbers #4 and #5.
I don't smoke the Skinny Monsters very often. Matter of fact, this the first non-Frank Skinny I've smoked all year. I'm looking forward to revisiting the rest of them as well.
The Hyde was GOOD!

Work kicked my butt this week but finally got a chance for a handful of Monsters over the weekend. Skinny Tiff and a Michael on Saturday along with a Pudgy Jason, Pudgy Drac and Skinny Face yesterday for Monsters #9-13.
My Pudgy Jason and Pudgy Drac stash is starting to get low! Please please please Pete rerelease the Pudgy series in 25 count boxes like the Skinnys!

The DogRockets family was in Chicago for a quick 2 night trip. Despite the cold and wind I managed to sneak in a Skinny Wolf and a Pudgy Mummy for Monsters #16 and #17. The Skinny Wolf still seems a bit harsh to me. Didn't have near the sweetness from the wrapper that the Pudgy version has. Was hoping after a year they would have mellowed a bit.

I enjoyed a Pudgy Wolf Saturday evening and a Pudgy Frank and a Skinny Frank yesterday afternoon. The Franks were paired with a generous serving of Café Au Lait. That is hands down my favorite cigar/coffee pairing ever. If you have any Franks, do yourself a favor and enjoy some Café Au Lait with it if you can. Monsters #18, 19 and 20 in the books.

Smoked a full size Hyde last night for #21. I had an issue with the tapered cap having too much tobacco bunched there. Felt like I was sucking a golf ball through a straw. Chopped off more of the cap and it finally loosened up about the half way mark. Didn't enjoy it as much as normal last night for that.

Smoked my first Bride last night for #23. Normally I don't like Tats fresh like this, but this was probably one of the best Tats ROTT that I've ever smoked. This will be a very solid addition to the Monster lineup.
