The AJ Fernandez Scrooge is a 7 x 40 Lancero that has been resting in the cellar since April 2025, giving it approximately 1 year and 5 months of age.
Blended by AJ Fernandez, the Scrooge features a Nicaraguan Habano wrapper, Jalapa binder, and Estelí, Nicaragua filler. The slender Lancero format concentrates the blend and delivers a complex, evolving profile.
Expect spicy honey and graham cracker up front, joined by a red pepper bite, apricot tang, and sesame oil. As it develops, notes of cream, cedar, and mocha take over before building into a warm cinnamon heat reminiscent of Fireball candy. The cigar closes with a lingering aged cedar finish.
