My Father La Antiguedad review
La Antiguedad, the second box-pressed line from Pepin Garcia and My Father cigars. Meaning 'The Antiquity,' Once a Cuban brand, La Antiguedad utilizes the original box artwork, and employs a traditional blend of Cuban-seed tobaccos to create yet another masterpiece from the hands of Pepin Garcia.
An expertly blended selection of unique tobaccos were used to create La Antiguedad. A slightly reddish-hued Ecuadorian Habano Rosado Oscuro wrapper blankets a double Nicaraguan binder, one Criollo the other Corojo. Inside, a collection of Nicaraguan tobaccos from three prominent growing regions. Aged a minimum of three and a half years, these tobaccos produce a very complex, yet smooth medium to full-bodied profile...

Man O' War - Damnation - Cigar Review
Master blender AJ Fernandez pulled out all of the stops in flavor and strength with the latest Man O’ War cigar Damnation. Known for full-bodied cigars, the Man O’ War line goes against the boring norm of everyday life to create carefully crafted handmades.
Man O’ War Damnation embodies that motto in showing off an oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper leaf, brimming with fiery Nicaraguan long-fillers.

Ave Maria -Lionheart - Cigar Review
Coming to you like a faithful steed from AJ Fernandez’s factory in Nicaragua, the Ave Maria Lionheart is always the perfect choice to lead your herf to delicious victory.
Draped in a Sun-Grown wrapper is a lion’s share of Brazilian, Mexican, and Nicaraguan long-fillers secured by a Nicaraguan binder. Ave Maria’s blenders have traveled far and wide to exotic lands to gather the tobacco in this blend, and the result is nothing short of magnificent.

Man O’ War Valkyrie - cigar review
Man O’ War Valkyrie uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper leaf that’s known as a “Desflorado.” While the tobacco is growing, AJ removes the flower and the upper portion of the plant, allowing the leaves that remain to absorb all the sunlight and nutrients. The result is a flavor like no other.

H. Upmann 175th Anniversary Review
This exquisite puro uses only the finest leaves ever grown in Nicaragua, and is assembled by the most skilled rollers at the AJ Fernandez factory. The wrapper leaf is the star of the show on the 175th Anniversary: a Media Tiempo wrapper subjected to a specially developed three year fermentation process. The body is medium-full and the flavors are unlike anything you’ve ever tried, owing to the special processes only known to AJ Fernandez. Raise a glass to 175 years of H. Upmann and toast to many more to come!

Southern Draw Rose of Sharon Review
Robert Holt, founder of Southern Draw Cigars gives his wife, Sharon a lot of credit for his success - so he wanted to say thanks by blending a cigar to pay tribute. What we got was an absolute gem that’s made from top-notch tobaccos and has striking flavor.
Expertly crafted at AJ Fernandez’s factory, Rose of Sharon boasts a lovely Ecuadorian Sun Grown Connecticut wrapper with Nicaraguan and Dominican long-fillers beneath. This cigar has a subtle spice with undertones of leather, oak, and earth. Complex and memorable, this cigar will surely make Mrs. Holt proud.

Divinia Cigar from Ave Maria
with the release of Ave Maria Divinia, a new standard has been set.
With this offering, a lush, Habano Sun Grown wrapper encases a bold, ultra-refined core of Cuban-seed long-fillers. A Cuban-esque flavor profile dominated by notes of black pepper, cocoa, coffee, earth, and nutty sweetness, is delivered in a silky medium to full-bodied profile. Simply incredible…and stunningly presented in individual coffins
