Aurora - defining style since 1903 Don Eduardo León Jimenes trained the best craftsmen in the region to become cigar rollers (torcedores) according to his ideas, until in 1903 he officially founded “La Aurora”, the first cigar manufacturer in the Dominican Republic. Since 1903, Aurora cigars have been characterized by the strict selection of the tobacco and the careful manufacture of a true work of art that has reached a level of first class in the world standard - a cigar, authentic from tobacco to the Dominican hands, which they carefully have rolled.
