Bellas Artes Maduro available in The Netherlands. We just got word that the brand new Bellas Artes Maduro line from the renowned A.J. Fernandez, will be available in The Netherlands by the end of this week. The cigars will premiere at the all Nicaraguan flagship store Cigaragua in Amsterdam. 

A.J. Fernandez launched the cigars at the IPCPR last July. He introduced them to the European markets last weekend at the Intertabac trade show. The cigars are made at A.J.’s factory in Esteli from Nicaraguan filler tobaccos. These include Corojo and Criollo. The binder is Mexican San Andres. A Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper finishes the cigar.

There are two sizes of Bellas Artes Maduro available in The Netherlands. Those are a 5½x52 robusto and a 6×54 Toro. The cigars come in at €12 for the Robusto and at €13,50 for the toro. After the initial launch at Cigaragua, the cigars are available for retailers all over the country. For now, the 6×48 Short Churchill and the 6½x58 Gordo are not available. The distributor, Longfiller Company, did not reveal if these two sizes would follow at a later stage.
