Tatuaje Cojonu 2006 and Reserva J21

[Nickerson]

I was looking into getting a box of each. Well they are DAMN pricey but they have been some of my most wanted cigars for a while now. Would you tat-whores out there say they are worth the price tag. I was going to order from Serious cigars where I place most my orders. The Reserva J21's are $234.00 for a box of 25. The Cojonu 2006 are $285.00 for a box of 25. They would be the most expensive cigars I've ever purchased. Would be doing a box split, but don't know if I'll get many biters at around $10.00 per cigar.

Would those who have had them say they are worth the price tag?

Why would you buy two boxes of NCs in that price range without trying them first? Pm incoming.

J21 was definitely worth the price I paid for it - BUT, at that price point, I'd choose other boxes that I feel are better.

The J21 and the 2003 are the only ones I've ever bought boxes of. I stick to 5ers of the other Cojonus, and randomly at that, the 2003 and J21 are arguably the best, followed by the SW, 2006, then 2009.

Eagerly awaiting the 2012 release though....

I'd be doing a box split if I got a box. I usually keep 5 for myself and my father will usually be the first to buy 5 off me. Saves some coin from buying five singles, plush you get a cool box, and I do enjoy running box splits and helping others get the cigars as well.

Appreciate the PM will have to check out that site.

The Cojonus are definitely box worthy. Call around and you might save a bit. Might want to call Tower.

Both are great stick really, but 5-packs are a wiser move, imvho. I almost bought a box of J21s myself, but opted for a 5-er and I'll just get another 5-er later

But I'm trying hard to do only 5ers these days, so I'm biased.

Call Craig at Emerson's or one of the guys at Federal. Great people and prices and they are also site sponsors.

Seconded on Federal. Great guys and a awesome Tat selection.

I've only had the J21 Reserva so can't speak for the other, but the J21 was awesome. I'd buy a box if I could. From what I've heard of the Cojonu would be just as good. I would check around with some other places though, you may be able to find a little better deal.
