Aganorsa Leaf Aniversario 25 Edicion Limitada

Since 25 years in the cigar business deserves more than a polite handshake, Aganorsa Leaf rolled the Aniversario 25 Edición Limitada to celebrate the proper way. This 6 1/4 x 52 Toro uses tobacco from Aganorsa’s own Nicaraguan farms, most notably the Corojo and Criollo leaves they’ve perfected; those are contained within a Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper, then aged for 2 full years after rolling. The result is a medium-full smoke with that extra polish an Aniversario LE cigar deserves.

Earth, steady spice, and a natural sweetness move in and out with nice balance from start to finish. With only 1,000 boxes made, this one has the kind of limited-run appeal that belongs in a good humidor while it’s still around.
