Tatuaje Drac Redux 2 (Pre-order)

The Drac was the second cigar to be released in Tatuaje’s Monster Series, debuting in October 2009. The redux version will come in the same 6 3/4 x 52 belicoso vitola, with the blend still using an Ecuadorian habano maduro over a Nicaraguan dual binder and filler. Johnson said that he made a minor tweak to the internal blend to achieve “a little more balance and flavor,” however.

 There are some differences between the redux version and the original cigar, as the redux has a covered foot, while the bands will be embossed as opposed to the flat, printed bands of the original cigars. Those bands will also be placed in the traditional position, as the original version’s band was wrapped around the very bottom of the cigar’s foot, and  upside down on top of that.
