Ten years after the original New World cigar shook up the cigar scene with flavor far beyond its price tag, AJ Fernandez returns with a proper tribute: New World Decenio. Named for the decade it honors, the AJF Decenio cigar isn’t just a commemorative release—it’s a reminder of how much AJ can pack into a blend when the occasion calls for it. Bold yet refined, the New World Decenio cigar marks a milestone with depth, balance, and AJ's unmistakable flair.

Rolled at the San Lotano factory in Ocotal, Nicaragua, the blend centers around a dark Mexican San Andrés wrapper, bolstered by a Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos from both Nicaragua and Honduras (the latter being a rare ingredient in an AJ cigar). This trio of regions gives Decenio its layered character—earthy, spicy, and just sweet enough to keep you guessing. All three sizes come softly box-pressed and dressed in vibrant blue 20-count boxes, offering a more polished presentation without losing the rustic charm that’s defined New World since day one.

What does the AJF New World Decenio cigar taste like?

The Decenio cigar lands in medium-full territory, with early bursts of dark cocoa and leather, followed by waves of baking spice, roasted coffee, and a touch of citrusy brightness. The finish lingers with a warm, earthy sweetness—like a well-seasoned cast iron pan after a decade of good use. It’s equal parts celebration and continuation, proving once again that AJ doesn’t just honor tradition—he builds on it.
