La Aurora ADN "Box and Single"
Blend-wise, the ADN Dominicano incorporates a Dominican wrapper sourced from the Cibao Valley, a Cameroon binder and four different filler tobaccos: Dominican from the Cibao Valley and Dominican andullo, Nicaraguan and Pennsylvania. Each of the four vitolas are packaged in 20-count boxes, and they are being rolled at the La Aurora Cigar Factory in the Dominican Republic.
The La Aurora ADN Dominicano Gran Toro is quite striking in your hand with a smooth milk chocolate brown wrapper that literally glistens with oil. The cigar has a number of obvious veins present and I can feel a large soft spot right under the cap. Aroma from the wrapper is a combination of strong manure, hay, dark chocolate, sawdust, hay, earth and roasted peanuts, while the cold draw brings flavors of strong creamy oak, barnyard, leather, hay, baker’s spices and milk chocolate sweetness.
