Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

I'm not sure which I like better AJ or DPG.

Tough call, they both have quite a few excellent cigars. The Fernandez smokes are a little more affordable, which is nice.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

I have not really smoked any of AJ's cigars other than the diesel.

After smoking that cigar I came home and ordered a box of 30 with a free fiver from Cigar.com. I already had nine left but it was a really impressive cigar. Would be worth it at $8 no less $2.50 a piece.

I guess I will have to try more of his stuff. :ss

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

I've got some sol cubanos on the way. All the talk of the Diesels has me itching to get my hands on some.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

I don't think AJ has the "name" just yet but I think he will, so get them while you can. I do like the lower price, a great value for the flavors.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Agree 100%!!!

This guy's stock is rising like crazy IMO... Buy, Buy, Buy!!!:ss

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

They make the Arsenio 2000 for approx $6.00 a stick for singles, it's a winner! I don't see or hear much about it and the stick is not widely distributed.

My local purveyor happen to have these and he can't keep them in stock. Sold in boxes of 10 for $50.00 North Carolina money, they are a steller treat!

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Thanks for the list!!!

I'm enjoying more and more of his stuff!!!:tu

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

That's because Casa Fernandez has nothing to do with AJ Fernandez.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Oh s**t, sorry bout that! Call me clueless in Carolina!

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Many of us know about the better know brands, like Diesel and Man O' War and Triple 'A' but what about some of the lesser known ones?? Thoughts Reviews etc?

The Fusion that he makes for this little boutique line called Rocky Patel is pretty good.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

I have a bunch of those didn't do it for me but only had one so considering the blender is definitely worth a revisit.

-I was thinking more the one's that may be great but are undervalued (ie CHEAP :) )

Yeah, I was just being a smart-ass. I think the Reposado and SCCC really fly under the radar. I think the buzz is picking up, though. The cbid winning bids on the Reposados have been going up lately.

Please scratch the Casa Fernandez. I can understand how it "seems" to be made by him, but it's not.

You guys too Nica Libre off the list. It is an AJ blend right?

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

I plucked a RP Fusion out to try tonight and noticed that there is also the
Fusion MM does AJ do that as well?

Also I seem to recall reading AJ did the Sherpa for Gurkha but it's a distant memory, like so many are these days.

According to this site, he blended both. I haven't seen that claim anywhere else though.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Thanks Kreth. Just scoredd some of the Harencia oscuros. I did try another one of the RP fusion nats and it just didn't do it for me. It ssemed like it was somewhere between wet grass and air.
I have some of the Nica Libre kicking around I am going to revisit them. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

CI special link thing

Nica Libre Flight Sampler
10 CIGARS (reg.$62.50)
$19.99

They don't come much cheaper than that. I have had one of these and at the time it didn't do it for me but I only had one so maybe I wasn't in the mood or got a bad one or something.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

damn, i had no idea he made anything besides the diesel and mow, thanks for the list....the diesel is awesome, havent tried the mow yet to see how the compare, because ive heard from others they are very similar

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

I have many of the AJ Fernandez blends and was wonderning if anyone would like to trade the ones I don't have for the ones I do.
These are the ones I do have....
Man O' War
RP Fusion
Nica Libre
La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte

Shoot me a PM if interested.

I'll send first of course. :)

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Bump. :)

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

According to a CI/Cigar Bid Special AJ does blend the Fusion MM.


AJ ’Abdel’ Fernandez is the next big thing. It all began in Cuba, where AJ began working with Cuban cigar-making legend Don Alejandro Robaina learning everything there is to know about tobacco growing, fermentation, curing, blending, and cigar making. For nearly 20 years, AJ absorbed this information, and his growing list of super-premium blends were designed to show you how much he learned. Indeed, AJ is climbing the ranks among the world’s top cigar-makers, and this 5-Star Sampler was designed to get the two of you better acquainted.

The AJ Fernandez 5-Star Sampler includes:
1 - Gurkha Sherpa Toro (6" x 50)
1 - Man O’ War Robusto (5.5" x 50)
1 - Padilla Habano Torpedo (6.25" x 52)
1 - Rocky Patel Fusion Churchill (7" x 48)
1 - Rocky Patel Double Maduro Toro (6.5" x 52)

MSRP: $34.40
Category: SAMPLERS

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

This list helps. Thank you.
Did an AJ Fernandez zoom on cigarbid -- spent an evening bidding on his cigars.
The boxes arrived today -- La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte toro, Man O'War toro and Nica Libre torpedo.
Like the extra-thick design on La Herencia box. And the cigars' heft matches the boxes' muscle.
The Man O'War box arrived busted. When you un-snap the box, the top comes right off, leaving the hinges on the box bottom, but cigars seem fine.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

SOrry about the MoW box but that's a heck of delivery.

I picked up a box of Diesels and the regular LHCs from cbid a few weeks ago. Nice packaging on both.
Sorry to hear about your MoW box. At least the sticks are ok.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

So based on CI and there "AJ Fernandez 5-Star Sampler - 5 Cigars"
I think it's safe to add the Gurkha Sherpa and RP Fusion Double Maduro (Fusion MM) to the AJ Fernandez blended cigars list.
BTW I have some of the 5 Vegas AAA on the way. I'll let you know what my mostly useless opinion is. :D

Heres a site that list all rollers and blends..

It looks like that site is a mirror for empiricalcigar.com, which was referenced earlier in the thread.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Just won some AJ Fernandez smokes this week...Nica Libre and MoW and axious to try the Nica Libres Diplomaticos. For a 5 pak for $11 how can you go wrong?

I scored some of the Imperials a while back, when cigar.com had the 5ers for $10.95 w/ free shipping. Basically got a box worth without the box. :r

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

I love it when stuff like this happens. You catch a great sale and then for dessert they send it free. Some days the Cigar Gods smile greatly on us.:D

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Other than the 5 Vegas Trip A's (itchin to smoke one) all the 5er's I got for 11 or less.
Posted via Mobile Device

Seems like they do that fairly often on the daily deal, as long as you pick up 2 or more 5ers.
Yeah, you can get some great deals on 5ers from the devil site, especially if you watch for Quickies that end early in the evening.

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

Hey Mark, Glad your likin the LHC Nats but what's a ROTT?

Re: AJ Fernandez blends
 

ROTT = Right off the truck.

For anyone interested, cbid just posted a "specials" sale on a 15 Nica Libres sampler. Auction ends Saturday, but if you bid early you may get it at the offering price. http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=880284

I'm passing as I bid on some stuff from last Thursday to this coming Wednesday to save on shipping. First time in quite a while I've bought from cbid...as addictive as I remember it! :r Good luck bidding. :tu
