The Last Call Maduro Chiquitas by AJ Fernandez is a small cigar with big, bold character. Measuring 3 1/2 x 50, this rothschild is wrapped in a dark Pennsylvania Broadleaf Maduro that delivers an alluring oily sheen and rich, earthy aroma. Beneath the surface lies AJ’s select Nicaraguan binder and fillers, creating a medium-to-full-bodied profile that is both hearty and refined. The first draws greet the palate with a peppery kick, soon unfolding into layers of dark chocolate, espresso, earth, and a hint of natural sweetness unique to the broadleaf wrapper. Despite its compact size, the Chiquitas smokes with surprising depth and balance, offering a rich experience in under half an hour. Perfect for when time is limited but quality cannot be compromised, the Last Call Maduro Chiquitas is proof that AJ Fernandez’s blending mastery shines just as brightly in short formats as it does in his full-sized creations.
