Montecristo By AJ Fernandez is a very special edition of this iconic brand.
With attention to detail, this box pressed cigar uses an Ecuadorian Sumatra Oscuro wrapper, a San Andres Mexican binder and Honduran and Nicaraguan fillers. How’s that for complexity! To say the least, the Montecristo crafted by Master Blender AJ Fernandez cigar is an ultra-premium gem that puts AJ’s modern spin on this classic Cuban heritage brand. Just so you know, this cigar is probably the boldest cigar to carry the Montecristo name.
To illustrate this, Cigar Coop rates it a very respectable 91. With flavors of coffee, cedar, pepper and heaps of natural tobacco taste, this is a cigar that delivers medium to full strength and full-bodied flavors from start to finish. Without doubt, if you’re a fan of rich, robust cigars, this Montecristo is a must try.

La Gloria Cubana Serie R Maduro is definitely one of this iconic brand’s most popular entries.
Cigar Aficionado describes this dark gem aptly. “ Heavily oaky at first, this massive maduro takes on an earthy quality with touches of cinnamon and clove that leave a licorice finish. It smokes well, and has cherry notes and hints of toast and sweet wood.” Stogies Guys say it’s a surprisingly well-balanced smoke with a good equilibrium. The Cigar Inspector claims it is both satisfying and complex. What we can say about this hefty smoke is that it’s been and continues to be extremely popular. Think, peppery spices, heaps of natural tobacco taste and loads of aromatic smoke for starters.
Most fans believe it to be a real Cuban style smoking experience.

Hiram & Solomon Veiled Prophet is another one of this company’s very popular cigars.
First off, it utilizes an aged Brazilian Arapiraca Colorado wrapper and Indonesian binder. The filler consists of Estelí-grown habano and Jalapa-grown habano ligero from Nicaragua along with selected tobacco leaves from Paraguay. The beautifully applied triple cap tops it off perfectly. To say this medium to full bodied cigar is complex would be an understatement.
Noted reviewer KATMAN rates it a respectable 91. He describes it as a flavor bomb. Think caramel, graham cracker, coffee, chocolate, raspberry and cedar for starters. Stogie Press ups the score to 94 with a perfect description. “The flavors in this cigar were just scrumptious from pre-light to nub. There was no harshness, bitterness, or sour tastes and I would say the flavors were balanced and well transitioning.” Without a doubt, the rarely produced Lancero size is the top pick!
Look like Veiled Prophet is another home run for Hiram & Solomon for sure!
