We have a few new additions to our lineup. We are now an authorized retailer for Drew Estate Liga Privada #9. Many of you may recognize the name as the parent company for the Acid cigar. This is not part of the Acid brand. The Liga Privada #9 is a traditional cigar created from seven different aged tobaccos from seven different farms. This cigar is medium to full bodied with just a touch of spice. The flavors are rich and smooth. This is a very limited cigar and as of this letter Drew Estate has released this cigar to less than 200 retailers nationwide.

Drew Estate introduced the new Liga Privada T52. This is a stalk cut sungrown Habano wrapper with a blend of 7 distinct aged tobaccos. This will be a bolder addition to the Liga Privada #9 and should arrive in October or November. It will be available in a Toro and Robusto size. I will post more information as it becomes available.

One hundred years ago, Don Eduardo León Jimenes, pioneer in the tobacco production in the Cibao Valley, had a vision. He knew that with hard work and perseverance his ambitions would become realities. What began as a dream, with patience and faith, become the first cigar factory in Guazumal, Santiago: La Aurora cigar factory.

Today we commemorate a century of its history and traditions with Aurora 100’s. A cigar blended with the best tobacco harvested in the fertle Cibao Valley by tobacco workers that perform their work with love and dexterity that only time and the secret inherited from generation to generation can give. Passing through the most rigorous leaves selection, dried under a fresh shadow and hand rolled by skilled artisans, to offer softness and incomparable exquisite taste to the richest and most select national premium seal; Aurora 100’s is the concrete representation of legendary centennial La Aurora Cigar Factory, symbol of quality and tradition, which has transcended with continuous effort and dedication.

The 100 Anos #1 Preferido will only be created once and this will be the only release of this cigar. Be sure to act quickly if you want to experience this limited cigar.
