The Return of Cien Anos By La Aurora Cigars
July 3, 2012
CIEN ANOS RETURNS
MIAMI, FL – Established in 1903, La Aurora is the oldest cigar factory in
the Dominican Republic. In 2003, the company celebrated Cien Anos, 100
years in the business. To mark this milestone of great cigars, the Cien
Anos was released, a cigar that is still talked about today. The cigar was
the #1 rated cigar from the Dominican Republic according to Cigar
Aficionado in 2004 and is set to be released again in time for IPCPR.
The cigars feature a silky looking Dominican Corojo wrapper that has been
aged 4 years and will be available in:
· Robusto ($12.00 MSRP; 25 count)
· Churchill ($14.00 MSRP; 25 count)
· Belicoso ($16.80 MSRP; 25 count)
These vitolas will be limited in production to 20,000 cigars per size.
In addition to the highly rated original blend, an ultra-limited edition
version in a Connecticut Broadleaf will be available. The cigar will be
released as part of a package to a select number of retailers and limited
to 7,000 cigars.
According to Guillermo Leon, owner of La Aurora cigars, “In my travels the
one question that has been constant is the request for Cien Anos. But this
time, we wanted to share not only our history, but also a piece of our
future and what has yet to come.”
“We are happy to have a cigar back for a limited time; whose original
release is still talked about today” added Jason Wood VP of Miami Cigar &
Company which handles distribution for La Aurora in the United States.
“The addition of the Connecticut Broadleaf will only add to the legend of
the Cien Anos”.

All I can say is, my prayers were answered!
Thank you Guillermo for bringing it back.
That is one of my favorite smokes, was running low on the humi. Great to hear it’s coming back.
Got to make room in my humidor for a couple of boxes of cien anos.
Great, love that smoke. Great choice to bring it back.
