Listed as #7 in Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 Cigars of 2006
La Aurora Preferido
Don Eduardo León is known the world over for producing what are considered to be some of the world's best cigars. Now you can experience what is considered to be his greatest masterpiece, the La Aurora Preferido. These masterfully constructed, retro-style perfectos are the result of years of tedious blending and taste testing. Rolled into each cigar is a La Aurora’s rich history and tradition of over 100 years of quality cigar making in the Dominican Republic. (Not to mention first class Dominican long filler tobaccos and an exquisite Cameroon wrapper!)
The tobaccos for La Aurora Preferidos are aged in oak barrels for a minimum of two years where the tobacco picks up subtle undertones of woodiness. The La Aurora Preferidos have four different, distinct wrappers. The Platinum Edition Cameroon is a mild to medium bodied, smooth smoke. The medium bodied De Luxe Maduro has one of the nicest Brazilian Maduro wrappers that I have ever tasted, while the toothy, full bodied Gold Corojo packs in the flavor with a little kick. The Sapphire Connecticut edition is the newest addition, mild and smooth with every glorious puff.
FYI…Many cigars are touted as being limited. Let me tell you just how limited the La Aurora Preferido is. There is only one roller for each size Preferido, and each of these rollers makes only 150 cigars per day. That’s it. Seven rollers make the entire Preferido supply for the world. NOW THAT IS LIMITED.
The Preferido Sapphire, Gold, Platinum Edition, and De Luxe Maduro are the most beautiful tubos ever produced. The paint job on each tube is comparable to the paint job on a Ferrari. So, if you are looking for a superior cigar with a superior presentation, this is it.
