AJ FERNANDEZ AMERICAN BULLY TORO (6 x 54)

WRAPPER: MEXICAN SAN ANDRÉS

BINDER: NICARAGUA

FILLER: DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, NICARAGUA

The dog on the band nailed the stately look. Also, throw the ball already. He seems patient and well-behaved. Of course, I have no idea. He might have just destroyed the couch.

Milk chocolate sinks into a somewhat refined molasses while spice provides a comfortable blanket over both. Nice start.

The draw and smoke output are what you would expect from an AJ cigar. Perfect.

Bully seems to take a brief break near the half, and it returns with well-balanced leather and bits of dried stone fruit, oak, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate. Smooth.

Dark chocolate and leather blowin’ cleanly through the retrohale.

The burn did its thing, and I could do mine.

Definitely throw the ball for this dog.

SMOKE TIME: 1 hr. 42 mins.

RATING: 3.5 / 4 - Throw the ball already.
