AJ Fernandez

The Art of the AJ Fernandez Blend

The AJ Fernandez story begins with a passion for tobacco that stretches back generations. Raised in Cuba and immersed in the traditions of cigar making, AJ Fernandez learned firsthand the importance of tobacco cultivation and blending. 

That foundation continues to influence every cigar that bears his name today. These cigars blend rich Nicaraguan tobaccos, providing depth and nuanced flavor that remains engaging throughout the smoke.

From smooth and mellow to rich and full-flavored, the AJ Fernandez portfolio offers something for every smoker. Here are some of the standout lines available at Corona Cigar Co.:

New World 

The New World marks the first collaboration between esteemed blender AJ Fernandez and his father, Ismael Fernandez. As a tribute to the rich tobacco traditions of the Americas, this box-pressed Nicaraguan puro presents a remarkably rich and accessible profile. Enjoy complex notes of dark chocolate and sweet maduro with a slight peppery finish. 

New World Connecticut

As a refined extension of the New World line, the Connecticut showcases a sophisticated, multinational blend of tobaccos beneath a genuine Connecticut Shade wrapper. This composition delivers a creamy and elegantly nuanced profile, revealing notes of cedar, toasted nuts and a delicate sweetness balanced by a subtle, warming spice.

New World Cameroon

New World Cameroon offers a distinctive twist on the original blend. For this expression of the celebrated New World line, AJ Fernandez selects an African Cameroon wrapper to envelop a core of patiently aged tobaccos. This pairing creates a uniquely refined, medium-bodied profile where the wrapper’s natural sweetness expertly balances rich, aromatic notes of coffee, cocoa and warm cedar spice.

New World Dorado

Named for the distinct, golden-hued soil of the farm where its wrapper is exclusively grown, the New World Dorado is a true estate-grown Nicaraguan puro. This cigar comes with a Habano Sun Grown wrapper and a vibrant, medium-bodied profile. Experience aromatic notes of cedar, white pepper and a hint of cinnamon.

Dias de Gloria

Dias de Gloria is AJ Fernandez’s homage to the golden age of Cuban cigar making, a spirit he captures using meticulously aged tobaccos from four of his most esteemed Estelí farms. The resulting Nicaraguan puro delivers a classically robust and complex profile with timeless notes of rich leather, black pepper and wood.

Dias de Gloria Brazil

Dias de Gloria Brazil builds on the original blend by introducing a Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper, giving it a bold, rich twist. Notes of pepper, cedar and subtle sweetness mingle throughout the profile, creating a deeper, more robust smoking experience. It's a powerful and distinctly Brazilian interpretation of a classic.

AJ Fernandez 20th Anniversary

Commemorating two decades of masterful blending, the AJ Fernandez 20th Anniversary cigar range encapsulates a journey from humble Cuban roots to the apex of the cigar industry. This milestone release serves as a tribute to that perseverance, offering a meticulously crafted experience that is the very culmination of a master's artistry.

Amar

Amar by AJ Fernandez is a deeply personal statement on resilience, a story told through a rich Nicaraguan puro. Drawing its name from his Spanish and Lebanese heritage, this Habano-wrapped cigar delivers a complex, medium-to-full-bodied profile with notes of cocoa, pepper and warm cinnamon spice.

Nasser the Goat

A collaboration between master blender AJ Fernandez and Jeff Nasser, Nasser the Goat is built around a dark, oily San Andrés Maduro wrapper chosen for its inherent richness. This wrapper, combined with a Nicaraguan Corojo binder and aged fillers, yields a complex, medium-to-full-bodied profile defined by bold notes of dark chocolate, espresso and leather.
