Imagine if there was a NUB size AF Curly Head. Now that would SUCK!
NOT if AJ BLENDED it....because apparently AJ can blend anything
He'll probably just make a maduro out of it. A 4 x 60 curly head maddy........Omg BARF
Im finding this thread becoming more and more offensive and I must say I am truly dissapointed by many of your comments, I would respectfully ask that "you" discontinue this bashing.
I didn't intend to offend any botls with my comments. Just being silly here. I'm an AJ fan myself. I'll admit that I'm bashing on the Curly head
And nubs bro... I don't like nubs, but I love me some shortys
Opinions, everyone has a different one. Why can't we just leave it at that? Personally I am an aj fernandez fan, but i'm not a fanatic. Like most blenders out there, there are some sticks I like, and some I don't. I can't just lump together and say that all his stuff sucks, or rocks. These are my 2 cents.
Well there's a thread title you don't see everyday. I'm not much of a fan of AJ's blends for some of the reasons the original poster listed, but mostly it's just that I'm not that into Nicaraguan tobacco. I did like his stuff at one time, but as my palate evolved/changed I stopped liking most of his blends. I do keep some of his sticks around because they're a nice change of pace every now and then. I do respect AJ's passion for tobacco. Some of the stories I've read, and heard, are quite impressive. Also, he has excellent taste in hats.
There is no comparison of Don Alejandro cigars with AJ's cigars. Many people learned about cigar from Don Alejandro and can declare themselves as his protege. Cigar taste is subjective so different opinions are obvious. In my case, I am not a AJ fan. However if someone enjoy his cigar then that is the right cigar for him/her.

I'm totally smoking a fuente right now because of this thread
Great, does that mean I have to light up a MOW now?? LoL
Nope...but if you don't like AJ, them you must not like Don Alejandro....fail lol
I just now read all of this. I like quite a bit of AJ's stuff (so far), I like Jason, but I really love lamp! Ok, but seriously, I do love the shorty's and the ruinations, as far as the rest of them, I have not had much else outside of the MOW line to compare. Thats why my humi is filled with a giant mix of singles, except for the AJ FR's, but I needed a bunch of budget sticks because I too odten than not, don't get to make it all the way through an entire stick without waiting until the middle of the night. Now, when I get home next week, I am going to smoke myself retarded and enjoy all of it!

Can you pretty please send me your addy, I have some stuff to send. You know the stuff we talked about before wink wink.
Sorry to hear that u didn't find anything AJ u liked bud. Have u tried LHC Core? just curious.
I have, you know I will say that I did really enjoy the Hen Oscuro.
A.J Fresh rolled were a big surprise to me. Got one in a pass or trade here and this is truly a cigar I could smoke every day. And a STEAL at the price point. I do not expect much from a two or three dollar cigar, and this is better than many I've had at twice the price.

I smoked a couple and found them to be ok, kind of bland. I do have one more, I was thinking about lighting it up and seeing if I find a change of heart.
So you are saying I can take a swisher sweet blend, reband it, then sell it for $10?! I'll bite! Nah jk, but I really really really must agree with your last paragraph Alex dealing with the releases.
Nice response Alex as I do enjoy the little devils but I have to say ccom better get the new oliva v sumatras in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But yes all tastes do differ I'm not a big fan of aj and do think of him more of a yard gar then anything else! But I do as mentioned really enjoy the little devils!

Just thought about this thread more. The truth is, not only do certain people prefer certain makers, but people smoke differently. For example, I smoke with my nose and mouth but I don't inhale. Some people smoke with just the mouth, some mouth and inhale without nose, etc etc. Each style provides a very different experience. Sometimes I smoke the same blend every which way and in some instances it tastes like a completely different cigar. Sometimes I love a cigar on the palate but the second I use my nose I find a distaste. For me, the blend has to be good when I use the palate and nose. But that is how I smoke. Others just want all palate and no aroma. I wonder if the folks out there that have similar tastes smoke the same way too. Maybe that has more to do with it than anything else. Bueso is a great example. If I don't use my nose, I don't like it. If I use my nose, I love it. Two completely different animals. This would be an interesting experiment. Going to start a new thread.
taste is so subjective that even price can change the flavor.
I agree but dis agree I feel some people think the more they spend the better... This is true to a extent but I all honesty one of my favorite got to sticks is cheap! I think sancho panza is a very under rated stick and the qc is very good. I have never been disappointed with a well rested extra fuerte
