    I knew I should have just ignored this post from the start. You wrote a controversial post. It created controversy. Somehow, we all act surprised.
    LOL, it created a discussion and thats all. I understand I may not be the most popular guy for a while, but at the end of the day, you liking AJ cigars is no different then me not liking them.
    Were you ever popular? I don't recal you ever being the prom queen or anything.
    Jason maybe this is you in 30 years?

    Steve, I'll have you know, I was Mr. Sack of Potatos 4 years in a row, thank you very much!!!

    Thats for sure me in 30 years, Im going to need a good driver, hmmmmm, what are you doing in about 30 years? lol
    Bro I'd be glad to pimp a Rolls with you as long as my stipulations were met. We'd have to get a system in there, some dice attached to rear view, lift it a little and put it on 24s and let me rock my black chucks and Cardinals hat backwards.
    I went to a night club opening in Sydney, Australia in April. I was rocking black slacks/Black button up, a Loose white tie and black chucks. Everyone kept asking me where the bathroom was.. so annoying. That outfit was ban from all club events after that.

    wow... so many people took this thread to heart.

    just chill.
    there is nothing wrong with holding an opinion of a blending style for a hobby that is very subjective to begin with.

    I know...I find that so comical at times. At first, I had a hard time telling people when I didn't like something. Once I realized how subjective it is, I find it comical now. And I promise to smoke more LFD and tell you if I eat crow

    Back to the review; In my opinion, most AJ blends are the same. I don't get much difference at all. There is nothing that grabs my attention and makes me think I need to buy a box of any of the sticks Ive smoked. I have tried AJ sticks ROTT and aged and have not been impressed. I honestly think that AJ and everything he produces is over hyped due to his training from a known master blender and add to that pricing that would blind and convince anyone to buy mass quantitys of below average sticks. To sum this review up, I am not a fan of AJ Fernandez and probably never will be.
    Jason,

    First off, I will say that I've liked only about half of the AJ brands I've smoked. Let's set aside construction/reliability/pricing, etc. because and only talk flavors for a minute...

    IMO, a couple were great flavor wise and I'd buy them by the box (AM Recon, SL Habano, MOW 52C), a couple I would never buy again (LHC Core, G2 Turbo) but most were decent and landed square in the middle (5V, SL Oval, Nica Libre).

    So I guess where I'm going with this is ---- is there anything specific, flavor wise, you don't like about AJ sticks - i.e. too spicy, too earthy, too woody, etc.??

    And on a side note, good for you on refining your palate and getting a sense of what you like and dislike in a cigar - and if you know you don't like AJ then more power to you for being able to figure that out. And I know there's plenty of guys here who have other specific brands they dislike and won't buy as well (cough cough Gurkha, VS)
    PM to you!

    I want to thank You, I'm not one to take the word of another, I like to try all the sticks out myself, what bothers me is that the AJ name is responsible for rolling many of our premium smokes, so when I see the seconds and our factory rejects bundled for a low price for the customers like myself to be able to enjoy a premium cigar at a low price, it bothers me, they are not going to be anywhere near the premiums we smoke, I always feel these cigars like the AJ fernandez FRESH ROLLED are left over scraps, I AGREE SMOKINDADDY

    I was never to impressed with tats either until I recently had a black lancero and the mini monster r very very well constructed smokes. Rigth now Wolfe is my favorite. I can't describe the box press very original maybe they been listening I'm a believer now.
