The cigar gets its name from the character in Greek mythology who attempted to use wings made out of wax to soar to the heavens, only to have the sun’s heat melt the wings and send him into the Aegean Sea. Icarus, like tobacco leaves kissed by Tennessee fire, soared too close to the sun. Ambition met flames, a cautionary tale in every ember.

The ADN Dominicano contains a very special kind of Dominican tobacco. Commonly known as andullo (an-doo-yaw), this process takes tobacco and places it inside palm tree pods, at which point it is bound and then pressed until a paste-like pile of leaves comes out months later. Extremely rare, and ultra labor intensive, this unique cigar making style originated in the Dominican Republic, and is known for adding strength, aroma, and sweetness to a well-balanced cigar blend.
In this case, the result is a spicy, woody cigar that melds pleasantly with hints of sweetness that segue into a graham cracker finish. This smoke is one hell of a great burner too, with a flawless draw producing columns of smoke.

La Aurora Cameroon gets its name from Cameroon, Africa, where its red and shiny wrapper was formerly harvested. This special cigar was inspired by the story of Eduardo León Jimenes, who was originally a salesman for his father's farm in Guazumal, Tamboril before founding La Aurora. One of the leaves he absolutely fell in love with was Cameroon wrapper, a leaf with a shiny reddish hue and a rough texture that has been found dressing La Aurora smokes since 1903.
Bold cinnamon and cocoa flavors take center stage in this stick, and lingering notes of wood move their way throughout in the background as the cigar wraps up the flavor profile with a citrusy touch in the finish.

West Tampa Red is the company’s third and strongest release. A bold core of chocolate may be at its core, but so too are layers of hickory, nutmeg, leather and a mocha finish.

Composed of an aged tobacco core from Nicaragua with a Mexican San Andres wrapper, the West Tampa Red is a manifestation of founder and master blender Rick Rodriguez's idea about what the appearance, texture, aroma, and flavor of a robust, rich cigar should be.
