If you don’t know Aganorsa, you’ve been living under a rock, and you really need to come out. They make tobacco and cigars for a great deal of brands across the industry. Aganorsa supplies names like Warped, Illusione, Tatuaje, JR Cigars, and more.
Of course, they also have their self-titled releases, with this next one making a splash on store shelves real soon. Like, now, soon. Introducing the Aganorsa Leaf Aniversario 25 Edición Limitada.
They’ll feature an MSRP of $30 per cigar, available in boxes of 10, and are limited to 1,000 boxes total. Select stores will start selling these bad boys real soon. Apparently, each store received a limit of no more than five boxes. That might make them tougher to find than most.
What is the Aganorsa Leaf Aniversario 25 Edición Limitada?
Shaped in a toro extra, at 6-1/4 inches by 52, the limited run celebrates and highlights Aganorsa Leaf’s 25 year anniversary. The anniversary actually happened in 2023, but this tobacco was aged two years, hence the delayed launch.
Inside, and outside, you’ll find all Nicaraguan tobaccos from the Aganorsa farms. What makes this one a bit different is that signature Aganorsa kick, and full-bodied experience, has been dialed back a bit. The Leaf Aniversario should be medium-bodied.
The brand’s owner, Eduardo Fernández, says the vision was “to bring the essence of traditional Cuban tobacco to Nicaragua by employing Cuban agricultural and fermentation methods, ultimately creating Aganorsa’s signature flavor profile.”
“This cigar celebrating our 25-year journey underscores a commitment to tradition and craftsmanship, showcasing Aganorsa’s dedication to authenticity in the tobacco industry.”
Sure, it might be a tough get, depending on where you are, but I’m also sure it’s going to be well worth it. If you get the chance, smoke one of these down to a nub.
Update: An earlier version mentioned the 25 year anniversary was in 2024. It actually happened in 2023.
Briley has over 16 years in the publishing and content marketing business. He's been writing about cigars for nearly half that in various forms. What makes him a tour de force is he also smokes them.
