AJ Fernandez Cigars Dias de Gloria
Paying homage to the golden pre-Castro glory days of Cuban tobacco, Dias de Gloria is handcrafted at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez in Estelí, Nicaragua. Combining a lustrous Brazilian Mata Fina leaf with vintage Nicaraguan long-fillers from four of AJ's legacy Estelí farms, it delivers a medium-to-full-bodied profile rich with aged cedar, black pepper, sweet cream, and coffee.

This soft-pressed toro is one of five AJ Fernandez-made blends to make this year’s Top 25 list, highlighting AJ’s continued dominance. The Brazil-wrapped extension to the Dias de Gloria showcases the factory’s trademark flawless construction, with a depth of flavor, strength, and complexity that secured it the No. 7 position.

I am reviewing AJ Fernandez Dias de Gloria in a 5.5 x 52 Robusto. The blend is a recent release from celebrated cigarmaker Abdel Joséf Fernandez. Dias de Gloria translates to “glory days” and is an homage to cigar making in pre-embargo Cuba. %%holtsVideoDialog%%{"heading_value":"","paragraph_value":"","url_value":"https://player.vimeo.com/video/941627141?badge=0&","header":"h4","instanceID":"","widgetTypeID":"holtsVideoDialog","id":"a81b990b-6a29-40f9-ba24-4bdb835803d1"}%%holtsVideoDialog%% Many avid cigar smokers have smoked at least one cigar made by AJ Fernandez by now.Read full review on Holt's Staff Reviews
AJ Fernandez Días De Gloria Short Churchill
Blind Man's Puff · Jul 15, 2020 · August 2019
Días De Gloria literally translates to “Glory Days.” This blend is AJ Fernandez ‘s tribute to a time gone by of the pre-Castro glory days of Cuban tobacco. This cigar was reviewed blind (no bands) by a panel of at least 4 reviewers. They did not know what they were smoking beforehand. The scores are an average of all the reviewers' scores with outliers removed. All of our cigars reviewed are shipped to the panelists with Boveda packs to ensure optimal smoking experience. The blend is a Nicaraguan puro with tobacco all coming from Estelí, Nicaragua. Specifically from these farms: Finca los Cedros, La Providencia 1, La Lilia and La Soledad. It comes in four sizes: Robusto 5 ½ X 52, Gordo 6 X 58, Toro (box-pressed) 6 X 56, and the Short Churchull 6 ½ X 48. All comes in boxes of 20 and range in price from $9 to $12.

The A.J. Fernandez Dias de Gloria line, which translates to glory days, is a call back to the good old days. They are supposed to be a call back to the cigars that Abdel’s father, Ismael Fernandez, smoked when he lived in Cuba. Once the cedar sleeve is removed, it reveals a shiny […]

Pink peppercorn | Cashew, salted | Cedar, sweet Pink peppercorn? Sure. Look it up. For now, think peppery between black || red, softly & with a cashew lilt. That lilt amplifies the distinct cashew note it sidles up to. Nicely salted. The pepper is milder in flavor than its effect on body. We'll come back to that. A sweet cedar via natural inherently sweet tobacco underneath, drives & structures quite well. An ardent delineation of flavors. Back to the body, it does dry the palate some, a la a Do

Cream, earth, sweetness (somewhere in the realm between brown sugar and maple syrup), and spice introduce the Días De Gloria. Enjoyable and well-balanced cream, wood, and earth grace the nasal passage. Spice does the heavy lifting on the finish but allows room for light cream and a very understated cherry.An effortless draw provides a mo

Developing Palates · Nov 4, 2024 · May 2024
This AJ Fernandez Dias de Gloria Brazil Figurado was a great cigar, and I would smoke more of these in a heartbeat. I don’t find the price to be bad, and it’s nice to smoke a good Mata Fina release again. The cigar has creamy chocolate notes, and it had this faint hot chocolate and mocha profile that I loved. The burn and draw were great, and it was complex from beginning to end. Nice transitioning and depth.
