November 7, 2013 — Casa Fernández is releasing a new vitola ‘Ilustre’, within the Aganorsa Leaf Maduro line. It is a box pressed 5 x 48 size and will be offered in a box of 15. Ilustre was produced to magnify the finesse of the individual tobacco components in the blend. Expect the Ilustre to parallel the unique flavor of the current vitolas: Robusto Extra 5 x 54 and El Supremo 5 x 58. Coffee, earth and spice tones combine with the slight sweet impression on the center of the palate left by the Corojo 99 and San Andres Maduro. This full body cigar packed with subtle strength is a must try cigar and is proudly made by Cuban master rollers in our Casa Fernandez Miami Factory. The official release date is November 1st.

Blend:
Filler: Nicaragua (Aganorsa)
Binder: Nicaragua (Aganorsa)
Cover Leaf: San Andrés, México

$8.90 MSRP
