Aganorsa Leaf Aniversario Connecticut

Once upon a time, Aganorsa Leaf introduced the first Aniversario cigar (dubbed Bohème No. 35), being crafted by a single roller out of the company's boutique-style factory in Miami. The cigars went on to see new annual releases in the years following, eventually growing to such popularity that the beloved Aganorsa Leaf Aniversario line we know and love is now available on a regular basis. This includes the original Corojo blend, the Maduro sequel, and the most nuanced of the trio: Aganorsa Leaf Aniversario Connecticut.

Now crafted out of the famed Aganorsa Leaf factory (aka TABSA) in Nicaragua, the Aganorsa Leaf Aniversario Connecticut makes use of a super-premium selection of tobaccos from the prized vaults of Aganorsa. This includes Corojo '99 and Criollo '98 leaves from the Jalapa and Estelí growing regions throughout the binder and filler, being finalized in a bronze-hued Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper. The end result is perhaps the best Connecticut ever rolled by Aganorsa, offering a chewy texture and a weighty body that sticks to the ribs. But there's also nuance and complexity, lingering long on the palate with notes of white pepper, buttered toast, sweet butterscotch, and vanilla cream through the finish.
