The Aganorsa Leaf Arsenio cigar line is a heartfelt tribute to the late Master Blender Arsenio Ramos, who passed away in 2018. A new release from the fan-favorite Aganorsa Leaf, this blend honors Ramos’s lifelong dedication to the tobacco industry. Born in Cuba in 1934, Arsenio devoted his career to tobacco, mastering the art of fermentation for Cubatabaco in Pinar del Río before joining Aganorsa in Nicaragua. Over 18 years, he played a crucial role in establishing Aganorsa’s operations and developing the signature flavor and aroma that the brand is renowned for today.
The Aganorsa Leaf Arsenio cigar is crafted entirely from Aganorsa Leaf tobaccos, delivering a blend that is rich, balanced, and unmistakably Cubanesque. This special release features a previously unreleased blend favored by Arsenio himself. The cigars are produced in three sizes: Robusto, Toro, and Arsenio’s preferred size, a 6" x 44 Corona. Each format is meticulously crafted to showcase the depth and complexity of Aganorsa’s tobaccos, paying homage to Arsenio’s legacy.
