AJ FERNANDEZ NEW WORLD OSCURO TORO REDONDO CIGAR

• Cigars of the Year 2014 by Cigar Journal
• 92 Rating by Cigar Coop

The AJ Fernandez New World Oscuro Toro Redondo gives you bold Nicaraguan flavour in a shape that feels a little different from the usual Toro. First, this cigar comes in a 6 1/2 x 55 format. It gives you about 60 minutes of smoking time at a 4/5 strength. Also, this toro cigar is the winner of Cigar Journal’s 2014 Cigar of the Year and rated 92 by Cigar Coop.

Then, the blend keeps things dark, rich, and easy to follow. The wrapper uses dark Nicaraguan Oscuro leaf and the binder comes from Jalapa. Inside, the filler uses tobacco from Ometepe, Condega, and Estelí. Because of that all-Nicaraguan mix, the cigar builds depth, spice, sweetness, and body in a very natural way. The rounded toro shape also gives the smoke a softer feel.

In terms of taste, this Oscuro Toro Redondo starts with espresso, roasted nuts, and earthy leather. Then, notes of dark cocoa, toasted wood, and black pepper begin to build. Some tasters also pick up charred oak, licorice, vanilla, and a sweet herbal note near the end. As a result, the smoke feels rich, creamy, and layered from start to finish.

Overall, this cigar stands out because it gives you strength and polish at the same time. It feels bold, yet it never turns rough. Therefore, if you want a full-flavoured Toro with real Nicaraguan character, slow development, and an award-winning family name, the AJ Fernandez New World Oscuro Toro Redondo deserves a place in your humidor.
