Leon Jimemes Cigars

Dating from 1903, Leon Jimenes is one of the largest cigar producers in the Dominican Republic. Besides making their flagship brand they also produce the La Aurora brand. Both of these fine cigars are made from Cuban seed tobacco.

The Leon Jimenes brand has a full_bodied, rich taste with a Connecticut Shade wrapper. The La Aurora brand has a mild_ to medium_bodied taste with a dark, rich Cameroon wrapper. Both are of magnificent quality.

The attention to detail that goes into Leon Jimenes Cigars is truly a testament that goes to their love of cigars. Every leaf is cut at the ideal moment, and even then, nine out of ten are ruthlessly rejected in a quest for perfection. Every leaf is carefully aged, sometimes as long as three years. Only the highly coveted and rare Cameroon leaf is used for the wrapper, and deliver a fuller, sweeter flavour and aroma. Leon Jimenes Cigars are totally hand made, using only long filler tobacco and the best part of each selected leaf. To ensure consistent quality, rollers are allowed to make only a set number of cigars each day.

This kind of care and craftsmanship is why each and every Leon Jimenes and La Aurora cigar is an original and deeply satisfying experience.
