La Aurora Adding Cazadores Maduro & Nicaragua
La Aurora has announced that it will be adding two new blends to its Cazadores Series, both of which are expected to arrive next month.
The Cazadores Maduro uses an Indonesian maduro wrapper over an Indonesian binder and Dominican fillers from the Cibao Valley. The Cazadores Nicaragua, which is described as mild-medium, uses a Nicaraguan wrapper over an Indonesian binder and Nicaraguan fillers.
Those two blends join the existing Cazadores Claro, which uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut-seed wrapper. That blend was introduced in 2018.
All three blends are offered in the same three sizes:
- Cazadores Robusto (5 x 50) — $4.50 (Box of 20, $90)
- Cazadores Toro (5 3/4 x 54) — $4.75 (Box of 20, $95)
- Cazadores Gordo (6 x 60) — $6.50 (Box of 20, $130)
“With the success of the claro wrapper we knew we could expand the Cazadores line and offer a Nicaragua and Maduro wrapper option at a price point that could continue to introduce Manuel Inoa’s blends to a budget-conscious audience. And ultimately introduce this audience to the La Aurora Family” said Ed McKenna, ceo of La Aurora USA, in a press release.
La Aurora will show off the two new Cazadores blends to retailers at this week’s 2024 PCA Convention & Trade Show in Las Vegas. They are scheduled to begin shipping in late April.
