The first Dominican cigar - since 1903. The dedication to excellence of a century-old tradition nestled deep in the Cibao Valley comes through in each finely crafted Aurora cigar. Expertly rolled, using the best long filler tobacco grown in Dominican family plantations, every Aurora hints of cocoa sweetness set against elegant notes of pepper and cedar.

Our medium-bodied puros burn perfectly into a creamy smoke and long white ash. This premium cigar is crafted from Piloto Cubano, Olor Dominicano and Nicaragua filer and encased in select African Cameroon wrapper

La Aurora
100 Anos


One hundred years ago, Don Eduardo León Jimenes, pioneer in the tobacco production in the Cibao Valley,
had a vision. He knew that with hard work and perseverance his ambitions would become realities.
What began as a dream, with patience and faith, become the first cigar factory in Guazumal, Santiago:
La Aurora cigar factory. Today we commemorate a century of its history and traditions with Aurora 100’s.

A cigar blended with the best tobacco harvested in the fertle Cibao Valley by tobacco workers that
perform their work with love and dexterity that only time and the secret inherited from generation
to generation can give. Passing through the most rigorous leaves selection, dried under a fresh shadow
and hand rolled by skilled artisans, to offer softness and incomparable exquisite taste to the richest and
most select national premium seal; Aurora 100’s is the concrete representation of legendary centennial
La Aurora

 Cigar Factory, symbol of quality and tradition, which has transcended with
continuous effort and dedicatio.

La Aurora

Barrel Aged

For years, La Aurora cigars has been aging filler and binder in 40 year old rum barrels
for their highly rated La Aurora Preferidos, 100 Year Anniversary and 1495 lines.
With the introduction of their premium Barrel Aged cigars, they have taken the next step.

Brewers, distillers and winemakers know the importance of letting their spirits rest in oaken barrels to bring out the best in their efforts. It is the same with tobacco.

All of the tobaccos, including the wrapper are aged in the rum barrels for one year. La Aurora discovered that the time in the barrels is well spent, giving the tobaccos the opportunity to naturally harmonize with each other and allowing the old wood to impart its unique characteristics on the leaves.

 



La Aurora 1495 Series

The Aurora 1495 Series, a cigar that celebrates the foundation of its city. Feaw years after the discovery of the New World, a group of Spaniards lead by Admiral Christopher Columbus himself, decided to travel deep into the untamed lands of Central La Hispaniola, then also known as The Island of Santo Domingo.

The year was 1495 when these men, captivated by the beauty of the fertile valley located amongst crystal-clear waters and an exuberant vegetation, built a small village along the Yaque del Norte River. This town was baptized Santiago de los Caballeros (Santiago of the Gentlemen) in honor of the first colonists, 30 gentlemen belonging to the Order of Santiago El Mayor. Through time, this city has been the stage of heroic battles, awe-inspiring manifestations of Mother Nature and blooming industries.

Santiago de los Caballeros, the first colony of the young American continent to bear this name, is the inspiration to one of its most outstanding daughters, La Aurora Cigar Factory, which hereby commemorates the Cigar Capital's foundation with the Aurora 1495 Series Cigar.
