In 2011, Rafael Nodal launched Aging Room Small Batch M356, marking a major shift for his brand. He rebranded as Boutique Blends and teamed up with José “Jochy” Blanco in the Dominican Republic to produce the Aging Room line. That same year, the Presto size earned a spot on Cigar Aficionado’s Top 25 list, putting the brand firmly on the map.
The brand reached new heights with the Aging Room Quattro Nicaragua Maestro, blended by A.J. Fernandez in Nicaragua. This cigar captures Nodal’s creative vision and uses only Nicaraguan tobacco, offering a bold yet refined flavour profile.
From the first draw, the Quattro Nicaragua Maestro delivers rich notes of wood and dark chocolate. As the smoke progresses, sweet hints of caramel and toasted almonds emerge, adding depth and complexity. The draw stays smooth, the burn stays sharp, and the flavour keeps evolving.
Importantly, this cigar became the first in the Quattro series made outside the Dominican Republic. That shift highlights Nodal’s bold approach and willingness to explore new tobacco origins.
At his core, Nodal remains a musician—and cigars, his chosen form of expression. The creation of Aging Room marked his breakthrough. The Quattro Nicaragua Maestro stands as his masterpiece, a perfect harmony of passion, artistry, and innovation.
Tasting notes: wood, dark chocolate, caramel, toasted almonds.
