Today, La Aurora announced the release of their new La Aurora ADN Dominicano, a new blend created using Andullo tobacco. Utilization of this type of tobacco pays homage to the oldest Dominican tobacco process that has been in practice for hundreds of years.
According to La Aurora, Andullo is a type of tobacco that is challenging to work with. Using it as a whole leaf in the filler is unique and provides its strength, inspiring aroma, and sweetness, resulting in a well-balanced blend:
Wrapper: Cibao Valley (Dominican Republic)
Binder: Cameroon
Filler: Cibao Valley (Dominican Republic); Andullo (Dominican Republic); Nicaragua; US (Pennsylvania)
The La Aurora ADN Dominicano will be available in 4 vitolas: Churchill (7" x 47); Gran Toro (6" x 58); Robusto (5" x 50); and Toro (5¾" x 54).
