What makes it unique
AJ Fernandez blend made with Hoyo de Monterrey, a nod to Hoyo's Excalibur line. First Ave Maria with a Cameroon wrapper. Only one size, packed in individual cedar coffins.
My review
Baking spice and almond from Ave Maria's first Cameroon wrapper
This is the first Ave Maria with a Cameroon wrapper, and the flavors fit that leaf. Baking spice and almond sit on top, with a bready note and some oak underneath.
There's cedar in there too, which suits a cigar that ships in its own cedar coffin. AJ Fernandez blended it with Hoyo de Monterrey, a nod to Hoyo's Excalibur line, and it comes in one size only.
I liked this one a lot.
