Inspired by the Bellas Artes National museum in Cuba, Bellas Artes stands as AJs testament to the fine art of cigar making. From Halfwheel:Two years after the release of A.J. Fernandezs Bellas Artes, the company released a maduro version with a blend featuring a Brazilian mata fina maduro wrapper, Mexican San Andrs binder, and fillers grown by Fernndez on his farms in Estel, Nicaragua. As noted at the time, the wrapper and binder combination was one not commonly seen in the cigar industry at the time, and one that set the stage for what could be described as a new and unfamiliar cigar smoking experience.

The Lancero vitola earned a hearty 90 point rating from Cigar Aficionado.
