La Aurora celebrates 120 years of tobacco tradition by unveiling the "La Aurora 120 Anniversary Edition." As the oldest cigar factory in the Dominican Republic, La Aurora reached a significant milestone in 2023. For over a century, this Santiago de los Caballeros-based company has produced exceptional cigars rooted in deep tradition. To mark this anniversary, La Aurora has created a unique cigar that reflects its expertise, passion, and quest for perfection.
The "La Aurora 120 Anniversary Gran Toro" offers a powerful start dominated by notes of cedar, which then evolve into flavors of peppery cinnamon and anise. Over time, aromas of cocoa and coffee beans develop, culminating in a sweet vanilla finish, creating a harmonious balance.
The box design is also remarkable, conceived by a renowned Dominican designer and adorned with illustrations that tell the story of the company. This edition proves that La Aurora continues to innovate while remaining true to its roots.
Tasting notes: the cigar features a robust wrapper with a slightly oily sheen, careful craftsmanship, and a creamy smoke with good volume. Flavors include pepper, wood, coffee, leather, and earthy notes.
