I have just found a AJ Fernandez favorite. I was surprised how good this Maduro is. Beautiful notes of chocolate and espresso. AJ fermented the Pennsylvania Broadleaf wrapper just right to enhance the sweetness without taking away the rich flavors of the Broadleaf wrapper.

This is a great stick by AJ Fernandez. The smoothness of this cigar is off the cart. The Pennsylvania broadleaf is one of favorite. The dark chocolate you get through out with hits of expresso really makes this great morning smoke with your coffee or late night smoke.

AJ is known for making flavorful blends at affordable prices and this blend is no exception. It’s a great go to when I want something strong to pair with my dark roast coffee. It’s not a complex smoke but has a perfect balance of dark chocolate/espresso notes with a nice pepper zing on the retro.

Great cigar! Got these for an insane price here on Oxford and didn’t know what to expect. Pleasantly surprised at how nice this smoke is. Chocolate, espresso and natural sweetness. Had to grab more to stock in the humi!
