A.J. Fernandez - New World

ddubridge

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

Yum

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

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

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

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.
