Aj Fernandez
Connecticut Enclave Figurado Single Cigar
The AJ Fernandez Enclave Connecticut Figurado is a stunning cigar to behold. The wrapper is a flawless golden-blonde, nearly veinless and silky to the touch. The ornate, teal-and-gold bands provide a beautiful contrast to the light leaf, and the sharp Figurado tapers demonstrate the high level of rolling expertise at the AJ Fernandez factory.
This single cigar is an excellent choice for a long morning session or a celebratory afternoon smoke. It offers enough complexity to satisfy the veteran smoker while remaining approachable for the novice. It pairs beautifully with a white chocolate mocha, a crisp Pilsner, or a glass of aged White Port

The Enclave Connecticut is defined by its balance of "cream and spice," a hallmark of AJ Fernandez’s modern blending style.
First Third: The narrow foot concentrates the initial flavors, offering a surprising hit of white pepper and cedar. As the cigar opens up, it quickly transitions into a smooth, buttery profile with notes of toasted nuts.
Second Third: This is where the Cameroon binder shines, introducing a subtle sweet spice—think cinnamon and nutmeg—that perfectly complements the creamy vanilla notes of the wrapper.
Final Third: The finish is clean and surprisingly robust. You’ll find notes of light leather, hay, and a lingering honey sweetness. It maintains its refinement all the way to the nub without any of the "papery" bitterness found in lesser Connecticut cigars.
