I really like the Ava maria and the San Miguel all 3 I've had have been really great.

Just bought a bundle of the AJ Overruns but not exactly sure what they are. My guess is a MOW or MOWR but haven't actually smoked one yet. 40 bucks for 25 stick was worth the gamble in my opinion.

That's I great overview of AJ's flavor-sense. He has a definite personality when it comes to cigar blending that the sticks in that sampler shows it off nicely. He pioneered the use of Pennsylvania Broadleaf as a wrapper and it's distinct flavor is evident in many of his cigars. Here's more about that:

I just noticed that today. I hope they get them back in stock, then sell them on the daily deal for $39.99 a 10 pack

I tried the "San Lotano's Habano" strong and spicy. It was very much like the big Diesel Unlimited.

Fresh rolled are good IMO Travis.

Coop · 01-12-2012, 11:11 AM

been looking at those fresh rolled as well. Have not pulled the trigger on a bundle

kenstogie · 01-12-2012, 11:18 AM

Does anyone know what the AJ Fernandez Overrun Bundles of 25 are?

I think they are a mix of a bunch of different 2nd AJ cigars. Meaning, 1 bundle is not just 2nds of Man O' wars, it could 3or4 different blends. The only thing that is the same is the size

CI overrun bundles? depending on size I thought some were San Latano Habanos or Maduros while other were MOW etc. Seemed like they were hit or miss on which ones but a size and wrapper description along with a little search on his brands that cigar.com and CI sale might help narrow it down.

kenstogie · 01-12-2012, 03:01 PM

Can wwe narrrow it down? I can probably tell frrom3 orr 4 blends

Nica Libre according to CI is Oliva.

Quote:

Potencia is the latest offering from Nica Libre....and it’s superb. It’s a small-batch, Nicaraguan beauty with character in spades. Carefully crafted in the Oliva factory...

It could still be by AJ Fernandez for Oliva though

I did some surfing on the internet last night and came across Fb and found some guy who has a tattoo tribute to AJ, he had Diesel on his forearm, Ava Maria on his upper arm and Man O' War on his wrist. On his other arm he had a very complex tat of 1844, so I believe 1844 needs to be added to this list is not already (I didn't look) He also had the initials AJF on his leg.

In his photos he has pics taken with AJ.....pretty cool if you ask me, and how often do you see ciar related tattoos?
