La Aurora USA announces the release of La Aurora Preferidos Hors d’Age 2024 LE. The 5.75 x 54 Toro ($30) features a Sumatra (Ecuadorian) wrapper paired with a Sumatra (Ecuadorian) binder and long-filler leaves from the Dominican Republic, Colombia, and Nicaragua.
“From seed to cigar, the journey for this release began 12 years ago,” Master Blender Manuel Inoa said in a press release. “As a result, we named it Hors d’Age which is taken from the French cognac designation, literally translating to ‘beyond age.’ And just as Hors d’Age cognac is arguably some of the highest quality cognac in the world due to its age, we set out to create an annual release that was also of the highest quality, thanks to expert aging and blending.”Hors d’Age 2024 LE will be formally available to retailers at the PCA 2025 April 11-14 at the New Orleans Convention Center. Shipping is scheduled for late April.
