2016 marks the 113th of La Aurora and to commemorate the occasion, La Aurora is releasing two cigars. The La Aurora 1962 Corojo and La Aurora 1987 Connecticut are both now available to retailers. Both offerings introduce two value-priced cigars that pay homage to the history of La Aurora.

The two cigars are new blends. Each is named for the year La Aurora first began working with the wrapper. 1962 was the year La Aurora started working with Corojo while 1987 marks the year La Aurora started working with Connecticut Shade.

Each of the two blends are available in four sizes and are priced with an MSRP of $5.50 to $6.00. The idea behind the value pricing was to pay tribute to the consumers who have supported La Aurora for 113 years.

La Aurora Cigars is exclusively distributed in the United States by Miami Cigar and Company.
