ALADINO
"This is a true classic old fashioned cigar" Julio R. Eiroa
Aladino embodies every word in that phrase. This cigar is a "Puro" of authentic corojo grown in the JRE Tobacco Farm in Honduras from original Cuban seed of Corojo.
It's flavour characteristics are unique to its kind that brings you back to the golden era of cigars in Cuba from 1947 - 1961 with its traditional sizes.
JRE Tobacco is a family-centered company, founded by Julio R. Eiroa and his son Justo M. Eiroa, together they manage all aspects of the cigar growing and manufacturing for your enjoyment!
Farming for these cigars starts at the green house and ends for them when they bring down the tobacco leaves from the barn. Curing and aging is their expertise and distinguishes this brand from the rest of the industry. After this process, the tobacco is put through the next stage of slow oxidation and degradation of carotenoids, that gives properly cured tobacco its sweetness, bringing the characteristics and most important its uniform taste, so that they can give you consistent quality and great tasting cigars.
The aging process can range from a period of 18 - 24 months after the harvest.
VINTAGE SELECTION
After being rolled, these cigars are aged from four to five years to let the tobaccos combine and develop their flavour profile. This Honduran puro was created to bring back the golden years of Cuban cigars, which took place in the late 1940's to the early 1960's. The Aladino Vintage Selection is handmade in Honduras by the JRE Tobacco Company.

"A veiny lancero with a rich brown wrapper. Prominent citrus notes of orange peel become woody, taking on a strong flavor of black tea and a hint of Middle Eastern spice on the finish. It has an easy draw, but the burn is somewhat crooked..."
