Tasting Note

The Aging Room Quattro Nicaragua blend is no stranger to high honors. The torpedo-shaped Maestro was the 2019 Cigar of the Year and the brand makes a return to the Top 25 list with the Concerto, a box-pressed Churchill composed of Nicaraguan tobacco. It’s produced in Nicaragua by A.J. Fernandez for Rafael Nodal who owns the Aging Room brand along with his partners, Hank Bischoff, Jochy Blanco and his wife, Alina. There are many different Aging Rooms made in different factories, but this is the blend that gives us the finest performance: an orchestral suite of flavors that range from espresso and chocolate to pecan and caramel. A note of star anise resonates on the finish for a lasting encore.
