La Aurora 1987 Connecticut Toro 5 3/4 * 54, Box of 20

La Aurora 1987 Connecticut Robusto 5 * 50, Box of 20

La Aurora has the distinct honor of being the first cigar factory to ever open in the Dominican Republic, and throughout that vast time frame the company has proudly grown and released tobacco of all types. To commemorate the very first time they produced a cigar with a Connecticut wrapper, back in 1987, La Aurora has released the 1987 Connecticut line. Featuring a USA Connecticut leaf atop a Dominican binder and filler, this mild to medium-bodied treat is perfect for any time of day and contains rich notes of almonds, cedar and coffee. A good classic never goes out of style.

Cigar Origin
Dominican Republic
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
The Dominican Republic is the world's first producer of cigars. Most factories are located in Santiago, in the center of the island, and in close proximity to the tobacco fields grown in the fertile Cibao Valley. While tobacco and cigars have always traditionally been produced in the Dominican Republic, many Cuban cigar makers established in the Dominican Republic after the Cuban communist revolution, elevating the quality of Dominican cigars.
Strength

Medium
Wrapper Color
Natural
Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Natural wrapper, also known as Colorado Claro, is light brown in color.
Wrapper
USA Connecticut Shade
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
The Connecticut Valley, in the Northeast of the USA, is well known for its bright golden wrapper. Because of a very hot and sunny summer, the tobacco is shade grown to make the leaf more delicate with few veins and even surface. Connecticut Shade wrapper grown in the United States has a mild to medium flavor and a silky quality, making it one of the most expensive and sought-after cigar wrappers in the cigar industry.
Binder
Dominican Republic
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
Dominican Republic is a traditional tobacco-growing country. In the 60's, a Cuban seed was introduced and the resulting tobacco, called Piloto Cubano, became famous as a good substitute of the Cuban tobacco that was no longer allowed to enter the USA. Piloto Cubano is full bodied while the Dominican Olor tobacco is milder but more aromatic.
Filler
Dominican Republic
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Filler (or “tripa” in Spanish) is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar. The Dominican Republic is considered one of the most premier tobacco growing countries in the world. The filler tobacco grown in this Caribbean island nation ranges from mild to full bodied. Olor Dominicano and Piloto Cubano are the main types of tobacco grown in the Dominican Republic.
Nicaragua
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Rolled by
Handmade
Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.
Manufacturer
La Aurora
La Aurora is a family owned and operated cigar factory established in Santiago, Dominican Republic in 1903 by Don Eduardo Leon Jimenes, the grandfather of its current President, Guillermo Leon. La Aurora is the oldest cigar factory in the Dominican Republic.

This was not a good smoke. Cigar was dry and the flavor was very bitter. I will not purchase it again.

Robert W.11/30/2023About: La Aurora 1987 Connecticut Toro 5"3/4 * 54

Nice looking cigar with a perfect burn and draw. Produces a nice cloud of sweet and spicy smoke. I’m looking forward to seeing what a few months in my humidor will do to them.

Really like this cigar

Angel G.05/04/2023About: La Aurora 1987 Connecticut Toro 5"3/4 * 54

A mild to medium cigar with notes of cinnamon, sweetness, red fruits, cocoa, nuts, and a woody aroma.

Tim J.04/09/2023About: La Aurora 1987 Connecticut Robusto 5" * 50

William L.03/27/2023About: La Aurora 1987 Connecticut Robusto 5" * 50

La Aurora Connecticut 1987 Robusto The first third was really good. It started with slightly dry and spicy cedar and some creamy notes joined the profile which ends the cedar dryness. Then an inch in, the creamy cedar notes continue, and some woody notes come into play. As the second third begins, the woody notes and cream continue while the spiciness goes away. At a half inch in, the sweetness notes go away, and the woody notes start to take over. So far so good! The final third of the cigar mimics the second third, dominantly creamy and nutty with strong woody notes, but all of a sudden a welcoming slight note of black pepper mixed up with the other notes and a solid light to medium finish.

Andrew P.03/06/2023About: La Aurora 1987 Connecticut Robusto 5" * 50

Spend a couple dollars more and buy A. Fuente

Dan B.08/09/2020About: La Aurora 1987 Connecticut Toro 5"3/4 * 54

A little rough on the exterior and required multiple burn corrections but draw was great and flavors were nice I got coffee with milk throughout and nutty. Not airy like some Connecticut’s are. Not on my top list but definitely worth grabbing again
