Aganorsa Leaf Guardian of the Farm JJ (25)

Aganorsa Leaf Guardian of the Farm JJ is the Robusto of the line that came out of the collaboration between Max Fernández and Kyle Gellis of Warped Cigars — a tribute to the bulldogs guarding the family’s tobacco fields, each vitola named after one of them. The JJ is the size most smokers settle on: familiar proportions, an uncut foot, and the balance that made this blend a cult favourite.

Expect a medium-bodied profile with pepper, cedar, and vanilla at the centre, joined by star anise, coffee, and hazelnut, all held together by a creamy sweetness and a clean, gently spiced finish.

Tatuaje Nuevitas Jibaro No.1

This Robusto measures 140mm with a 50 ring gauge, hand-rolled as a true Nicaraguan puro with a Corojo wrapper and binder over vintage Corojo and Criollo long-fillers from Aganorsa’s own farms, finished with an uncut foot. Presented in a box of 25 cigars.

Ideal with a bourbon, a light rum, or a medium-bodied red wine — also pairs beautifully with an espresso or a hazelnut dessert to echo its creamy, nutty character.
