Overall Experience:
This Tatuaje Skinny Monster Mummy had a solid flavor profile throughout the entire smoke with minimal transitions or complexity. Most of the smokes in this Monster Series have been more complex than this particular one. Check out the Krueger or Michael if you want something really complex, but if your looking for a solid smoke this should do the trick.
