ByPerry Zeilinger

The 1844 Nicaragua cigar made and blended by AJ Fernandes uses Nicaraguan binder, fillers and an Ecuador Sumatra wrapper, this is a medium to full in body cigar with notes of dark roast coffee, hazelnut and spice. I was given this cigar by a friend and though I was excited to smoke this because I was told that this was John F. Kennedy favorite cigar from Cuba. It was not my cigar bend of choice with lots of pepper notes throughout the cigar. If you find this cigar, try it for yourself, let me know your opinion.
