The Bellas Artes Gordo is a standout in AJ Fernandez’s portfolio, blending tradition with innovation. Named after the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes in Havana, this cigar pays tribute to Cuban artistry and craftsmanship. It’s handmade at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez in Estelí, using tobaccos aged for a minimum of three years.
The wrapper is a proprietary hybrid called “Rojita,” developed by AJ himself. It’s paired with a Havana ’92 binder grown in Quilalí, Nicaragua, and a filler blend of Nicaraguan, Honduran, and Brazilian tobaccos. The result is a medium to full-bodied cigar with a smooth, complex profile. Expect notes of cinnamon, cedar, sweet tobacco, citrus, and a touch of black pepper. The Gordo format delivers a cool, slow burn with rich smoke and layered flavor.
