AJ Fernandez Dias de Gloria Short Churchill is a 6 1/2 x 48 premium cigar handmade in Estelí, Nicaragua. This Nicaraguan puro features a Nicaraguan wrapper, binder, and long-filler tobaccos sourced from four of AJ Fernandez's oldest farms: Finca los Cedros, La Providencia 1, La Lilia, and La Soledad.
Meaning "Days of Glory," the Días de Gloria collection pays tribute to the pre-revolutionary era of Cuban tobacco through an entirely Nicaraguan blend. AJ Fernandez selected and aged tobacco from his established Estelí farms to create a cigar with commonly described notes of earth, cocoa, cedar, black pepper, and spice. The Short Churchill offers this blend in a traditional round format with a 48 ring gauge.
