Episode Twenty Eight

On this episode Bourbon Beards and Belvedere sits down with Antonius “AT” Fields to explore the origin and craft behind AT Field Cigars. AT explains his family tobacco roots, the decision to produce full-Dominican puros, and why each blend uses tobaccos aged at least 10 years. The conversation covers the three core blends — Connecticut, Corojo, and Maduro — construction and flavor notes, the remote blending process with Dr. Oscar Rodriguez, pairing ideas (from bourbons to Blue Moon) and how different sizes change a cigar’s profile. We also discuss the challenges of launching a boutique cigar brand, distribution in Jacksonville lounges and online partners, TPA community support, and AT’s plans for steady growth, merch, and future releases.
