- Corona: 5 5/8 x 46
- Robusto: 5 1/2 x 52

Dorado means “gold” and it is the name of one of AJ Fernandez’s farms in Estelí, Nicaragua. Fernandez gave the farm the name because he noticed a golden tint to the soil. The New World Dorado line is produced at AJ Fernandez’s San Lotano factory. The cigar is a Nicaraguan puro and has mostly tobaccos from the Dorado farm. The wrapper, binder, and some of the fillers come from the Dorado farm.
