AJ Fernandez Dias de Gloria Brazil Toro 6"1/2 * 54

The Dias de Gloria Brazil cigar is the second release of this popular line by master cigar crafter AJ Fernandez. The first Dias de Gloria, a Nicaraguan puro, was released in 2019. It was created as a tribute to the glory days of Cuban tobacco prior to the revolution. The Brazil uses a premium Nicaraguan leaves for its binder and filler, but it is covered by a chocolatey Brazilian Mata Fina maduro wrapper. It was crafted to celebrate the fine premium tobaccos that come from these two nations and to continue in the legacy of its predecessor. “Dias de Gloria” is Spanish for “glory days.” AJ Fernandez invites you to create your own days of glory with this medium to full-bodied cigar.

The standard Toro shape is 6 inches by 50 ring gauge.

Most cigars are round in shape, as this is how the cigars are rolled by the torcedor.

This cigar is 6"1/2 inches long, or 165.1 mm.

Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.

The cigar ring gauge corresponds to the diameter of a cigar, this cigar has a ring gauge of 54, so his diameter is 54/64 inches or 21.34 mm.

Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Maduro wrapper can go from dark coffee brown with a reddish tint to blackish brown (the latter also called Oscuro).

Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.

Cuban expatriate AJ Fernandez produces handmade cigars in Esteli, Nicaragua at the Tabacalera Fernandez factory. Fernandez learned everything he knows about tobacco and cigarmaking from his late grandfather, cigar legend Alejandro Robaina.

The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
Nicaraguan cigar binders are produced mainly in Esteli and Jalapa, both lands with volcanic soil and excellent climate for growing tobacco. Binders grown in Jalapa have sweet undertones. Corojo, Habana2000, Criollo, and Maduro binders are all produced in Nicaragua.

Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
