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.
