I was just gifted one of these by -MG- and I can't wait to try it. Also, I believe this stick is actually rolled in Robania's factory.

nope, not a Pepin Garcia smoke, nor a Robaina smoke, as he is one of Cuba's most revered tobacco grower. These are made by AJ Fernandez in Esteli, who supposedly grew up under the tutelage of Alejandro Robaina and has his own style of fermenting/curing. That factory is making some incredible cigars at ridiculous prices. Construction is as good as Pepin and his blending talents are equally as exciting IMO. Give these Man O' Wars another shot for sure.

AJ makes some nice cigars. He's also the the guy behind the ITC 10th Anniversary and Padilla Habano and I'm sure some others. Definitely give this one another try Legend!
