Just saw this on FB. Kinda excited.

(from Halfwheel)
New World is a blend of Nicaraguan tobacco, described by the company as “medium-full.” It uses a Nicaraguan oscuro wrapper, binder from Jalapa, and fillers from Condega, Ometempe and ligero from Finca Soledad in Estelí. It’s offered in four sizes: Gobernador (6 1/2 x 55), Navegante (5 1/2 x 55), Virrey (6 x 58) and Almirante, a 5 1/2 x 55 Belicoso. The suggested retail price is listed at $6 and the cigars are sold in boxes of 21.

Can I just say, especially after my last rant about cigar bands, that I love the use of this footband! Since the main band doesn't distinguish it as being from AJ, I think the footband serves a very nice purpose of letting a consumer at a B&M know who the blender is without doing a bunch of research. Very cool. Love the price point as well!

No kidding. A blend by AJ and his father? Must have. Just hope it's not crazy expensive. I think they said msrp was 120 to 140 though.

Box or box split?? Not sure when they're released? I know it's a big roll out at the ICPR.

I'd split one with you. I thought I read somewhere that it would be on retail shelves mid August.

If you compare price vs. value then the New World is an excellent smoke. Most probably I won't buy Padron regular line anymore. It has a lots of flavors, sweetness with dimensional fruity/floral aroma. I've smoked few already and will get a box. They are all boxed pressed and my fav. size is the torpedo. AJ offered aggressive price on it and I have no doubt it will be popular after the release.

Do you have information on wrapper, binder, filler?

Edit - just read the original post which has that info. Looks like a tasty cigar.

Bigshizza · 2014 16

Yum

rzaman · 2014 16

Just FYI, cigar manufacturers never reveal the true blends. This is a standard business practice for the fierce competition in the industry. As result, whatever you read please take with a grain of salt.

When these get released, I would like to do a box split if any one is interested.

Rain · 2014 15

So how are they?! My wife would not be swayed, even though I walked around pouting all day.

jd50ae · 2014 15

And its box pressed......yahoo.

Patrick I would be interested in splitting a box with you.

Bigshizza · 2014 21

Good stuff guys!!

I'm patiently waiting. Patrick is sending out my half of the box today or tomorrow. Cannot wait to try!

Patrickbrick · 2014 22

These are good, and you will have yours on Monday. Right out of the box burned great and had a nice flavor. Looking forward to having one after some rest.

I want AJ to do a full Dominican tobacco stick. I'm kinda over his Nica stuff lately. Maybe my palate is angry with AJ. Maybe this stick will change that though.
