The El Pulpo Cigars by AJ Fernandez stand as a bold testament to modern Nicaraguan craftsmanship—complex, powerful, and impeccably refined. Developed in collaboration with Artesano Del Tobacco, El Pulpo represents years of blending precision, resulting in a cigar that perfectly balances strength, flavor, and artistry.
Handcrafted at AJ Fernandez’s renowned factory in Nicaragua, each El Pulpo cigar showcases a dark Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper encasing a Nicaraguan binder and filler core cultivated on Fernandez family estates. This meticulous blend delivers a full-bodied smoking experience layered with richness, complexity, and elegance.
The profile opens with black pepper and espresso, evolving into deep flavors of dark cocoa, toasted oak, and molasses, and finishing with notes of earth, spice, and subtle sweetness. Every draw reveals a masterful progression of flavor—dense, smooth, and deeply satisfying from start to finish.
Available in a selection of refined box-pressed formats, each vitola showcases the blend’s distinct balance and intensity:
Robusto Grande (5" × 56) – Dense, creamy smoke with immediate impact.
Toro Grande (6" × 56) – Balanced, smooth, and perfectly rounded.
Belicoso Grande (5¾" × 58) – Intensely rich with a sophisticated taper.
Octo Ocho (7" × 38) – A rare culebra presentation for collectors.
The Fry (4" × 48) – Compact, bold, and brimming with character.
The name “El Pulpo”, meaning The Octopus, reflects the cigar’s multidimensional nature—its eight “arms” symbolizing the depth, complexity, and evolving grip it leaves on the palate. Every cigar is box-pressed and meticulously rolled to ensure perfect combustion, consistent draw, and a rich, aromatic finish.
