Matt, congrats on being a Mod Squad member! They made an excellent choice!

A memory that popped up today. That is an Ave Maria and I am currently wearing the same shirt.

So we are including things made at the AJF factory also, ie. Southern Draw, etc…?

I have about 20-25 more AJF sticks coming in today and tomorrow, so I’m all set with what I already had, especially if the above is accurate.

El Pulpo Robusto Grande

A brand spanking new release made by AJF for
Artesano del Tobacco

I had never heard of it and picked it out because of the octopus on the band. I didn’t even realize it was an AJ stick until I got home and looked it up

Yes, anything from AJF and his factory. Southern Draw - yes. I'll try to update the first post with brands soon.

Most of not all Southern Draw are rolled at Tabacalera Fernandez? I read that AJ also helped with the blending of Rose of Sharon and Jacob’s Ladder, and likely others.

I had to do some research.
There is a Casa Fernandez associated with Aganorsa, Warped, Illusione, Viaje, El Güegüense, Gurkha, et. al. Some damn fine cigars, well except for a few from the last one named, gur..gu..gur..Gurkha.

This is not AJ, Abdel, Fernandez. It is Eduardo Fernández and his son, Max. I’d bet they know each other well. Perhaps a distant cousin, so that counts, right?
