A Limited-Edition La Aurora Celebrates 120 Years
Today, October 3, marks the 120th anniversary for 120th Anniversary which shipped at the end of September. But the celebration is not over. By the end of this month, retailers can expect an additional size, a double-tapered perfecto called La Aurora 120th Anniversary Limited Edition.
Measuring 6 inches by 58 ring gauge, the La Aurora 120th Anniversary Limited Edition consists entirely of Dominican tobacco: A Habano ’92 wrapper, Corojo filler. According to the company, the cigar is full-bodied.
Made in the Dominican Republic at La Aurora S.A., the La Aurora 120th Anniversary Limited Edition ships in 10-count boxes with a suggested retail price of $40 per cigar or $400 per box. Only 2,500 boxes are being produced in total, with 500 boxes allocated to the U.S. market.
Each cigar comes in a hinged, coffin-like tubo made to resemble the ones that the original La Aurora Preferidos came in back in 1903.
