It’s been nine years since we have seen an ongoing new addition to the Tatuaje Cojonu series, but at the 2021 Premium Cigar Association Trade Show, Tatuaje Cigars showcased the Tatuaje Cojonu 2021.
The Tatuaje Cojonu 2021 consists of an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and filler. It is available in one size – a 7 x 58 Belicoso. The cigars are presented in 21-count cabinet-style boxes.

The cigar is large and quite beautiful. The wrapper is dark and oily. The cigar has a very weighty feel in the hand.
The test draw after cutting the cap was good. The initial flavors at light up were a sweet orange citrus, brown sugar, a touch of cinnamon, light citrus peel, quite a bit of leather, and black coffee. There was black pepper rated at 7. Nice leathery, sweet start.
At the first third (53 minutes) the cigar is burning very slowly. I still had the citrus, citrus peel, brown sugar, cinnamon, a lot of leather, and a lot of black coffee. The cigar is quite dark but has sweetness. The cigar tastes very full bodied but the strength is medium to full at this point. The finish is leather and black coffee with good lingering black pepper. The cigar has heavy leather and black coffee but the sweeter notes are coming through nicely. I rated the first third 92.
As I moved through the second third (1 hour 45 minutes) the cigar got a little more earthier. The leather and black coffee are elevated and now there is creamy nutmeg in the mix. The sweeter notes are still there but they have been reduced slightly. The cigar is full bodied. The finish is unchanged with good lingering black pepper. The cigar is still good but darker. I rated the second third 91.
The cigar lasted an impressive 2 hours 22 minutes. Overall, the cigar held serve in the final third. Nothing really changed. The same flavor notes were there in the same amounts; rather light sweeter notes with heavy leather and black coffee. The cigar is full bodied. The finish is unchanged. If you like heavy leather and black coffee this may be the cigar for you. And you will definitely get your money's worth with the cigar lasting almost 2 1/2 hours. I rated the final third 91.
