The La Aurora ADN Dominicano is our featured cigar this week. The name of the cigar is Spanish, translating into “Dominican DNA”. This cigar is an homage to andullo, a Dominican Republic tobacco that’s aged differently than typical cigar tobacco. Andullo is created by taking cured tobacco leaves, wrapping them tightly in palm tree pods with rope, and hanging them to ferment for a period of two years. Dominicans have smoked andullo as a pipe tobacco for more than 500 years.

Binder: Cameroon (Africa)
