AJ Fernandez New World

Quattro Nicaragua – It was Meant to Be

AJ Fernandez New World

When ya comin’ home Dad? I don’t know when, but we’ll get together then.

After a 17-year career with the Plasencia family, Ismael Fernandez has come out of retirement to join his son, the very well-known AJ Fernandez. Their first collaboration together, called New World, is a nod to the discovery of tobacco by Christopher Columbus and its introduction to the rest of the world in 1492.

Draped in a bold, dark Nicaraguan wrapper and jam-packed with powerful ligeros from Esteli and Condega balanced by the uniqueness of Ometepe tobacco, this rich, medium to full-bodied blend offers an elegant, refined profile. Notes of earth, espresso, and a dense array of sweet and spicy notes characterize its smooth, complex profile. As it burns, the strength and flavors intensify perfectly before an exciting finale. There’s something really special with this one, and knowing how near and dear to AJ this blend is, they planned it that way all along.

Good news! New World by AJ Fernandez has earned a well-deserved 92-rating, noting: “…sweet with chocolate and vanilla character before the smoke amps up to show stronger notes of espresso, toast and earth. The finish is nutty with hints of mocha.”

AJ Fernandez Rosa de Guadalupe

AJ Fernandez Rosa de Guadalupe

The Rose of Mexico – A New Classic

AJ Fernandez makes a damn fine cigar. That’s just common sense nowadays. From his core lines like New World, San Lotano, and Enclave, to the many boutique brands that are made at his Esteli factory, he makes something that anyone can get behind. Rosa de Guadalupe is a new 2019 release that is well deserving of a spot in your humidor.

Offered up in three expertly crafted sizes, it features a beautiful and oily Mexican San Andres wrapper leaf. The rest of the blend is entirely Nicaraguan tobaccos grown on Fernandez’s farms. AJ is known to highlight the powerful Nicaraguan tobaccos in his blends, normally leaning on the full-bodied side, but Rosa de Guadalupe burns smooth offering a medium-bodied and nicely balanced experience throughout. It provides notes of earth, leather, dry spice, and a bit of cedar. You can’t go wrong here, Rosa de Guadalupe is yet another tally in the win column for Tabacalera AJ Fernandez.
