Jeff Watkins and Darren Moody
“I came away very impressed with A.J. as a person, and his first class operation in Nicaragua. I myself, being a huge fan of his cigars, felt inspired to create the A.J. Fernandez Lounge.”

Once inside the A.J. Fernandez Lounge you are greeted by a life sized mural of A.J. Fernandez, standing in front of his curing barn, at the San Lotano fields. The room is filled with dark leather lounge furniture, in where you are surrounded by images of A.J. Fernandez in his element, either working in the field or rolling new blends. The A.J. Fernandez logo appears throughout the lounge, along with boxes and branded material. The cedar lined walk in humidor is just over 100 square feet in size, featuring over 150 lines of long filler “handmade” cigars, mainly from Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, and Honduras.

The Perfect Smoke is a very unique cigar shop, as it was built out within a renovated Victorian home, from the late 1870’s. Darren was recognized by the Historic Salisbury Foundation, for revitalizing this structure, which is on the Historic Registry. It is located within the “Historic District” of downtown Salisbury (N.C.). Each room of The Perfect Smoke offers a distinct theme spanning from a golf theme, train room, hunting theme room, and a library.
