Nasser the Goat by AJ Fernandez Toro

Here is a cigar that I feel doesn’t get the recognition it deserves and will knock your socks off! We all love the El Pulpo line that AJ Fernandez does for Artesano Del Tobacco. But have you tried Nasser the Goat by AJ Fernandez? This Toro is a bold, rich cigar that really highlights what AJ does best—combining San Andrés maduro and Nicaraguan tobaccos into a balanced, flavor bomb. Wrapped in a dark, oily Mexican San Andrés leaf, this cigar delivers a full-bodied, medium-plus strength with ample depth, while the Corojo binder and Nicaraguan fillers keep everything smooth and well-rounded. It’s the kind of cigar that delivers big flavor without being overwhelming.

The story behind this 6×54 Toro is what makes it stand out. It started as a collaboration between AJ Fernandez and Jeff Nasser, owner of Nasser’s Lounge in Haiti. As Nasser says, “It started as a project between two people with a mutual passion and enduring camaraderie, but the profile and construction made it take flight and prompted its introduction into the US market.”

When it comes to flavor, this cigar leans into everything you want from a San Andrés maduro. Right off the light, you’ll notice notes of cocoa, espresso, and earth, with a little bit of spice in the background. As it burns, those flavors build into dark chocolate, coffee, leather, and a natural sweetness that keeps everything balanced. The retrohale brings a touch of pepper, but nothing too aggressive. It’s rich, smooth, and consistent all the way through.

If you’re looking to try the Nasser The Goat by AJ Fernandez Toro, it’s now available beyond its original shop-exclusive release and can be found at OGT Cigars. It comes in 20-count boxes and beautiful packaging. If you enjoy San Andrés maduros or cigars with rich chocolate and coffee notes, this is definitely one worth picking up.
