AJ Fernandez New World Connecticut Belicoso is a 6 x 54 premium cigar handmade in Estelí, Nicaragua. Created by AJ Fernandez and his father, Ismael Fernandez, this Belicoso features a U.S.-grown Connecticut Shade wrapper over a Mexican San Andrés binder and long-filler tobaccos from Brazil and Nicaragua. Introduced in 2015, New World Connecticut offers a distinct blend from the original all-Nicaraguan New World Oscuro.
New World Connecticut Belicoso offers a mild-to-medium smoking experience with a documented flavor profile featuring cream, cedar, wood, almond, and gentle spice. Its tapered Belicoso head distinguishes this vitola from the straight-sided sizes in the collection, while its traditional non-box-pressed construction differs from the original New World Oscuro line.
