The latest release in the AJ Fernandez New World Series consists primarily of tobacco from the Fernandez Dorado farm in Esteli; according to AJ Fernandez the soil on the farm has a golden hue which is unusual as most of the earth in Esteli tends to be an ashen shade of dark grey. This golden appearance inspired the name as the word dorado means ‘golden’ in Spanish. The Dorado farm is only five years old and the New World Dorado brand uses tobacco from its first harvest.

Dorado’s all-Nicaraguan blend is made up of a sun-grown, Cuban-seed wrapper and Criollo ’98 binder, both from the Dorado farm. Although there’s some tobacco in the filler from two other fields, the rest is from Dorado.

Each puff has layers of caramel, orange peel, nuts and espresso.

Made at the AJ Fernandez San Lotano factory, the cigars are box pressed and presented in 10-count boxes.
