AGANORSA Leaf Aniversario Connecticut Begins Shipping

No, it’s not 100-ring gauge, but there’s a new line shipping from AGANORSA Leaf.

The company has begun shipping the AGANORSA Leaf Aniversario Connecticut, a new two-vitola line. The blend uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over a binder and fillers from Estelí and Jalapa, Nicaragua. Production is handled at the company’s Agricola Ganadera Norteña S.A. in Estelí, the same factory that makes the Aniversario Corojo and Maduro. Together, the trio of Aniversario blends serves as the flagship releases for AGANORSA Leaf.

For now, the Aniversario Connecticut is offered in two sizes:

• AGANORSA Leaf Aniversario Connecticut Gran Robusto (5 x 54) — $14.50 (Box of 10, $145)
• AGANORSA Leaf Aniversario Connecticut Toro (6 1/4 x 52) — $15.50 (Box of 10, $155)

“The Aniversario Series is our Ultra-Premium expression of Aganorsa,” said Terence Reilly, vp of sales and marketing at AGANORSA Leaf, in a press release when the cigar was announced last month. “Between the gorgeous presentation, the beauty of the Connecticut wrapper, and the quality of the blend, we feel Aniversario Connecticut will join the Corojo and Maduro editions and become one of our best sellers. We encourage our retail partners to make sure to attend PCA and stop by our booth to ensure they have access to this amazing cigar.”
