Few names in the cigar world carry the weight of AJ Fernandez.
With decades of experience and countless award-winning blends, AJ Fernandez has earned a reputation as one of the industry’s most trusted and influential master blenders—known for precision, balance, and unmistakable Nicaraguan character.
This week’s Tuesday Pairing brings together two AJ Fernandez selections, thoughtfully matched to showcase the depth, consistency, and craftsmanship behind the name.
Inside this week’s pairing:
AJ Fernandez San Lotano Requiem Maduro Gordo (6x60)
A rich, full-bodied classic wrapped in dark San Andrés Maduro. Expect deep notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and earthy spice, rounded by a subtle lingering sweetness and flawless construction throughout.
AJ Fernandez Last Call Geniales (4.5x50)
Originally reserved for visitors to AJ’s Casa Blanca estate, Last Call delivers a refined medium strength profile with layers of creamy milk chocolate, warm vanilla, nutty almond, and a touch of red pepper—all wrapped in a reddish Ecuador Habano leaf.
Two cigars.
One legendary name.
Zero guesswork.
