Cigar Reviewed: AJ Fernandez New World Dorado Rubusto

Smoked at: Long Beach, MS

The AJ Fernandez New World Dorado is flat-out impressive. This robusto vitola features great construction, great draw, and a clean, even burn the whole way through. It looks good, feels good in the hand, and smokes even better.

Flavor-wise, it’s rich but not overpowering. You get that nice balance of cedar, light pepper, some nuttiness, and a creamy finish that hangs around just long enough. It shifts a bit as you go—there’s some earth, cocoa, and even a little citrus if you’re paying attention.

Medium-bodied, smooth, and consistent. One of those sticks you’d reach for again without thinking twice. And it’s priced right so you don’t have to wait for a special occasion for this truly special cigar. AJ Fernandez really nailed it with this one.
