I am holding a New World Dorado cigar by AJ Fernandez, a well-regarded name in the cigar industry. Here's a quick breakdown of this cigar:

🌿 New World Dorado by AJ Fernandez

Wrapper: Nicaraguan Habano Sun Grown (from Dorado farm)

Binder: Nicaraguan (also from AJ’s own farms)

Filler: Mostly Nicaraguan, with a large portion from the Dorado farm

Body: Medium to full

Flavor Notes:

Earthy and rich

Notes of cedar, nuts, pepper, and slight sweetness

Well-balanced and complex

🥇 What Makes It Special

The "Dorado" name refers to the golden hue of the to***co leaves from AJ’s farm in Estelí, Nicaragua.

The cigar is highly rated and appreciated by aficionados for its consistent burn, draw, and nuanced flavors.

BY AJ Fernandez, Enclave Broadleaf Nicaraguan Cigar. AJ Fernandez Enclave Broadleaf reflects a joint blending effort between AJ Fernandez and his father, Ismael Fernandez. In August of 2019, Enclave Broadleaf scored 93 points in Cigar Aficionado for its sweet and earthy profile of cocoa powder, vanilla beans, and leather with a robust finish. The full-bodied, full-flavored cigar is drafted from a succulent Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper and an ample combination of Nicaraguan binder and filler to***cos. Choose from a series of popular, well-made shapes designed to showcase AJ’s command of Nicaraguan taste.

Signature Edition Aganorsa Leaf. A Nicaraguan Cigar.

Cigar Review: Aganorsa Leaf Signature Selection
by David Jones · April 4, 2019

AgaSig_straightVitola: Corona Gorda
6” x 44 ring gauge

Purchased at Burns Tobacconist
Background
Aganorsa Leaf unveiled it’s Aganorsa Leaf Signature Selection at the 2018 IPCPR show. This project was shepherded by company owner, Eduardo Fernandez, and his son, Max, and is a Nicaraguan puro using the Aganorsa to***cos the company grows.

The wrapper is a Rosado Claro Corojo 99 from Jalapa, the binder and filler use Corojo 99 and Criollo 98 from Jalapa and Esteli, as well as half a leaf of Medio Tiempo, a rare high priming to***co used very seldom in ci**rs.

There are 4 sizes available, each of which ships in boxes of 25. These are a “regular but limited” production item, with only 500 boxes per size being made for 2018. The 2019 production started shipping of late, with a few boxes making their way to the store where I work.

Both of Leaf Enthusiast’s sponsor stores—Cigar and Pipes and Small Batch Cigar—carry Aganorsa Leaf Signature Selection. I got information for the background section of this review from Cigar-Coop’s news story about the cigar’s release.
