The Monster Series Beyond the Cigar: Tatuaje's Coffin Ashtray
When a Cigar Brand Becomes a Collector's World
The news that matters here is bigger than one accessory. The Tatuaje Coffin Ashtray shows how far the brand's Monster Series has grown. It is no longer just a line of cigars. It is a world fans want to collect.
At Mardo, we have watched Tatuaje build one of the most loyal followings in boutique cigars. The Coffin Ashtray is a neat example of how they do it, so let us look at what it is and why collectors care.
AT A GLANCE
- The Tatuaje Coffin Ashtray is a limited-edition accessory, not a new cigar.
- Production is capped at 1,300 units worldwide, at a $70 suggested retail price.
- It is made of heavy-duty black silicone, with four cigar rests.
- The coffin shape nods to the Monster Series and its coffin-style packaging.
- It debuted at the 2026 PCA show and began shipping in October 2026, ahead of Halloween.
Why the Monster Series Connection Matters
To understand this piece, you have to understand the Monster Series. Tatuaje, founded by Pete Johnson, built the series on horror themes, limited runs and distinctive packaging. Some of those releases came in coffin-style boxes.
Over the years, that turned into a genuine collector culture. Fans chase the themes as much as the cigars. The Coffin Ashtray taps straight into that. It gives collectors something from the Monster world that is not a cigar at all.
That is the real engine here. People do not just buy a cigar. They buy into a theme they want to complete. An ashtray from that world is an easy yes for a committed fan, and that is why this piece lands.
What You Actually Get
This is a practical piece, not just a display item. It is molded from heavy-duty black silicone, which is a durable, forgiving alternative to ceramic or glass. Drop a ceramic ashtray and it shatters. This one shrugs it off.
Tatuaje Coffin Ashtray at a glance
| Maker | Tatuaje Cigars (Pete Johnson) |
|---|---|
| Type | Limited-edition accessory |
| Production | 1,300 units |
| MSRP | $70 |
| Material | Heavy-duty black silicone |
| Size | ~10 in long x ~8 in wide |
| Cigar rests | Four |
| Packaging | Branded gift box |
The coffin shape runs about 10 inches long and 8 inches at its widest. Four cigar rests mean it works for a small group, not just one smoker. And it ships in a branded gift box, which matters to the people who collect this stuff.
It is also built for real use, not just a shelf. Silicone wipes clean and handles heat, and it will not crack if it slides off the table. For a patio or a cigar lounge, that toughness is the whole point.

The Halloween Timing
The October release is no accident. The Monster Series has always leaned into horror, so dropping a coffin-shaped piece right before Halloween fits the brand perfectly.
It is smart branding. The timing turns a functional accessory into a seasonal event, and it reminds everyone what the Monster Series is about. That is the kind of consistency that builds a following.
A Quick, Honest Word on 'Limited'
Let us be straight about the numbers. Only 1,300 units were produced, and that is a real limit. But limited production is not the same as sold out, and we are not going to tell you it has vanished.
We are also not going to pitch it as an investment or guess at resale value. It is a $70 accessory tied to a brand people love. Buy it because you want it, not because someone promised it will be worth more later.
Mardo's take
- Tatuaje understands the culture of cigar collecting better than almost anyone. The Coffin Ashtray is proof. It takes the Monster Series identity and extends it into a piece you can actually use at the table, which is a clever way to keep a theme alive year-round.
- Is it worth chasing? If you are a Tatuaje or Monster Series fan, yes, it is an easy, fun pickup, and the silicone build is genuinely practical. If you are indifferent to the brand, it is simply a nice coffin-shaped ashtray with a $70 tag.
- With 1,300 pieces out there, collectors who want one should not wait forever. But there is no need to panic. Treat it as a collectible you enjoy, not a race.
