尼加拉瓜雪茄制造商 A.J. 費爾南德斯基本代工生產了差不多主要的古巴雪茄品牌的同名尼加拉瓜版本，如今，他可以在這串名單上再加一個“世界之王”（El Rey Del Mundo）。5月初，復制者雪茄銷售公司（Forged Cigar Co.）發布了世界之王雪茄，委托費爾南德斯生產，這是用尼加拉瓜煙葉詮釋這個古巴傳統雪茄品牌。

這款雪茄是在埃斯特利地區的費爾南德斯的雪茄廠卷制，茄套使用了康涅狄格闊葉煙葉，其他部分使用了尼加拉瓜煙葉。據該公司介紹，這款雪茄的口味將比之前在洪都拉斯生產的世界之王要濃郁。

費爾南德斯認為尼加拉瓜煙葉為主的煙葉調配增強了這款雪茄的口味強度，復制者雪茄公司的母公司斯堪的納維亞煙草集團的營銷總監史蒂夫·阿博特說：我們相信這種煙葉混合會引起那些以前沒有嘗試過這個品牌的雪茄客的注意。

新款雪茄只有一個尺寸，公牛，52環徑粗，6英寸長。每盒10支包裝，一共生產了3800盒。在美國地區的零售價是每支11.99美元。

He’s made Nicaraguan versions of almost every major Cuban brand, and now, cigarmaker A.J. Fernandez can add one more to his list. Earlier this month, Forged Cigar Co. released the El Rey del Mundo by AJ, a limited-edition, Nicaraguan-heavy interpretation of this heritage Cuban brand.?

Produced in Estelí, Nicaragua at Fernandez’s factory, the new El Rey del Mundo consists almost entirely of Nicaraguan tobacco save for the Connecticut broadleaf binder. According to the company, this will be more full-bodied than typical El Rey del Mundos, which are made in Honduras.?

“Powered by a Nicaraguan-forward blend, A.J.’s take on El Rey delivers a fuller-bodied smoking experience,” said Steve Abbot, director of marketing for Scandinavian Tobacco Group, parent company of Forged. “We believe this blend will capture the attention of smokers who might not have tried the brand before.”

The new cigar is offered in only one size, a Toro that measures 6 inches by 52 ring gauge. The cigars retail for $11.99 each, and come in 10-count boxes. Only 3,800 boxes are being released.??
