Earlier this month, La Aurora showed off a new version of its flagship Puro Vintage line, though the company didn’t want to talk details. Now that information is out.

The La Aurora Puro Vintage 2007 is a 6 1/2 x 50 salomon. As the name implies, Puro Vintage uses tobacco only from 2007, in this case, a wrapper from the Dominican Republic, a binder from Ecuador and fillers from Brazil, the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua.

Pricing is set at $22 per cigar with production limited to 1,000 boxes of 10 cigars. Miami Cigar & Co., La Aurora’s U.S. distributor, told halfwheel the cigars are already in the U.S. and will begin shipping next month following their debut at the 2018 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show, which begins July 13 in Las Vegas.
