Best flavor of dr hyde4/2/2024 The brown sugar, citrus, and cream are becoming subtle and secondary. Approaching halfway the woods and earth are coming back. Some pepper is showing up again on the retrohale with a little sting. There are some subtle baking spices present as well. The beginning of the second third continues with cream, citrus, and brown sugar. The pepper, wood, and earth have dropped off but the brown sugar is still present and plays nicely with the citrus and cream. It has remained full flavor and body with no noticeable strength. The end of this third sees a bump in citrus and cream. There’s a creaminess coming in on both the draw and the retrohale. There’s a slight citric note as well that adds a nice touch. About a half inch in there’s some of the brown sugar from the retrohale coming in on the finish of the draw. The retrohale is showing spices, pepper, and brown sugar. There is a bit of a pepper kick right off the bat. The first light is full in flavor and body with bursts of wood, earth, and baking spices. The cold draw is like pecan pie and it smells earthy with subtle spices. As with the Jekyll, the Hyde has the Cuban 109 cap, which I enjoy the look and feel of. I really like the green band and off white font against the darker wrapper. The wrapper is fairly dark and clean with minimal veins. I am very hopeful this Hyde does not have the performance issues of the Jekyll. I’m sure there will be moments of earth and pepper as well. Lots of baking spices, wood, cream, and subtle sweetness. I am hopeful for classic Tatuaje Sumatran goodness. I also typically enjoy other Tatuaje cigars with these blend characteristics. I am looking forward to this member of the Monster Mash series because this may have been my favorite of the original Monsters I have smoked. This is fitting as it gives the Hyde a darker appearance which fits the contrast between Dr. This cigar shared the same shape and size as the Jekyll, however with a change to an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper in exchange for the Sancti Spiritus. Unlike previous years, this Monster release was known well in advance because of it being the other half of the Jekyll that was released the previous year. Originally released as a 7 x 49 Churchill in October 2015, the Hyde is the 8th Monster after Frank, Wolf, Drac, Face, Mummy, Jason, and Jekyll.
