Island (The other ones) Reviews>Tatuaje Cojonu 2006 chocolate goodness!

So this was a part of rarer sticks I scored from a brother and ever since smoking that Zona Del Este I am anxious to see what other surprises Pete has got in store...so I grab this stick which is torpedo in shape with the signature brown Tat label...because of this label I have already made my mind up that this stick will taste similar to other browns I have had...I was completely wrong! Prelight draw is flawless, just the right amount of air flow. The wrapper is perfect with no unsightly protrusions...a silky brown. I spark it up and get a very lite back end spice but mostly a rich chocolate flavor (very unusual for a Pete stick). An inch in and the thing is like a bitter sweet dark chocolate with a ting of spice...delicious. Flavors remained constant to the nub and the burn was even without issue....very nice! :-)

I agree. The Cojonu '06 has a different taste than a typical Tat Brown. This is currently my favorite cigar of all. They say this one is more full-bodied than most other Tatuaje's, but I don't detect that.

Glad you enjoyed! Sounds good! Try the 2003 - it'll blow the 2006 away. Try the 2009 it is better as well, IMHO.

I'll second that... I actually can't decide if I like the 09 better than the 03... both great sticks. :-)

e-man, I have extras of the 03 and 09. I can send you one of each if you wanna trade for something. Let me know via pm if interested. All three are similar, but the 06 gets the nod.
