Fernandez<\/a> in Estel\u00ed, Nicaragua.<\/p>\n<p>A press statement further explains the company&#8217;s collaboration with Fernandez: &#8222;Working with AJ Fernandez has allowed us access to his crop of outstanding Pelo de Oro tobacco. The tobacco is not widely used as it is very difficult to harvest a good crop as the leaf is very susceptible to blue mold and other diseases.&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>The blend is comprised of a Nicaraguan Pelo de Oro wrapper and filler and a Nicaragua Habano binder. Only one vitola of the new blend has been produced: The 5 1\/2 x 55 Scherzo (Pigtail) is sold in boxes of ten for USD 13.90 per cigar.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-12177\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/aging-room-pelo-de-oro-single-cigar.jpg\" alt=\"aging-room-pelo-de-oro-single-cigar\" width=\"770\" height=\"163\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/aging-room-pelo-de-oro-single-cigar.jpg 845w, https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/aging-room-pelo-de-oro-single-cigar-500x106.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/aging-room-pelo-de-oro-single-cigar-770x163.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/aging-room-pelo-de-oro-single-cigar-600x127.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unlike other Boutique Blends cigar line, this release is rolled at the Tabacalera A.J.
