Popular small-batch cigar-maker AJ Fernandez honors the pre-embargo ‘glory days’ of Cuban cigar making with AJ Fernandez Dias de Gloria. The blend is conceived from an all-Nicaraguan recipe of premium binder and filler tobaccos and a glistening reddish-brown Nicaraguan wrapper leaf. Tasting notes of leather, black pepper, and wood culminate in a medium-bodied profile handcrafted in Estelí, Nicaragua. A nutty, spicy, and rich finish emerges in a cool-burning collection of popular bigger ring gauge formats, including a box-pressed Toro, while the Gordo and Robusto are handmade in a round format.
