The Viva La Vida is a very unique addition to the AJ Fernandez portfolio.
What’s important to note is this cigar began as a collaboration between AJ and two respected tobacconists in 2015. While this brand is technically not an A.J. brand itself, the box does say “AJ Fernandez” on it. Now its part of the company’s lineup and has become a very popular smoke.
When noted reviewer KATMAN gave it a 96 rating, his description was short and sweet. ” A true flavor bomb encrusted with pearls of colored spices.” Add this to Blind Man’s Puff ‘s respectable score of 93 and more than kind words as well. “This was an excellent cigar! This is the kind of cigar you look forward to smoking all day, and when you do sit down to smoke it…it delivers!” What more do you need to know!

Joya De Nicaragua Cabinetta is yet another one of this iconic brand’s amazing selections.
The company describes this highly regarded cigar best. “Joya Cabinetta is different. It brings out the best of two different wrappers in one cigar. It was expressly blended with mellower, medium bodied Nicaraguan fillers that deliver a smoother; more refined smoking experience.“
This great tasting mild to medium bodied cigar is completely wrapped in the Ecuadorian Shade along with an additional over wrap of Nicaraguan Criollo placed on the top third of the cigar. Without a doubt, this adds a unique flavor transition to the blend.
With this in mind, it’s no surprise why so many seasoned smokers are rediscovering this time honored brand.

Each of these cigars can stand alone and reign at the top of the cigar food chain. There’s no doubt that both offer a thoroughly unique and satisfying smoking experience.
Halfwheel rates the Elegancia a score of 91. They sum it up nicely. “Ferio Tego Elegancia is an excellent cigar. The cigar features a dominant nuttiness from near start to finish, a full and smooth profile, and excellent construction.”
Cigar Coop gives the Elegancia a respectable 90. Their description is spot on as well. “It’s quite a complete cigar. Not only does it deliver good flavor, but it delivers unique flavor, and it delivers flavors that keep me interested from start to finish.”
