Eduardo and Max Fernández are the father-and-son team behind Aganorsa Leaf. This signature cigar features a small amount of medio tiempo, the rare tobacco leaf prized by growers for its rich flavor.

Aganorsa Leaf Signature Selection is a Nicaraguan puro made with a rosado-claro Corojo ’99 wrapper that covers the Corojo ’99 binder and a filler mix of Criollo ’98 and Corojo ’99 tobaccos. The filler also boasts a half leaf of rare medio tiempo, which are small tobacco leaves that occasionally sprout atop some (but not all) tobacco plants above the corona priming. Medio tiempo is prized for its rich flavor and strength.

All of the tobaccos in Signature Selection were grown in Estelí and Jalapa by the Fernández’s vast Nicaraguan tobacco-growing conglomerate, Agricola Ganadera Norteña S.A., better known as Aganorsa.

“Signature Selection is blended with our best, refined, aged tobaccos selected from our most exclusive lots in our farms in Nicaragua,” said Eduardo Fernández, owner and founder of Aganorsa Leaf. “We are very excited to now share it with tobacco enthusiasts in the marketplace.”
