JR Cigar Announces Next Crafted By JR Release with Aganorsa

July 9, 2024 By Matthew Tabacco

JR Cigar has announced the launch of Crafted By JR: Aganorsa Leaf, the latest addition to its Crafted By JR series. What started as the JR Cigar team’s idea to share their smoking expertise with customers has developed into an evolving collection of cigar collaborations with some of the biggest names in the industry. For the series’ sophomore release, JR Cigar has joined forces with Aganorsa Leaf, masters of both growing and blending tobacco, and has worked closely with them to craft this exclusive and flavorful blend.

“Our JR team is constantly striving to provide our customers with a unique, premium experience,” says Brad Winstead, CEO of JR Cigar.

“With Crafted By JR, our goal is to collaborate with the best, most inventive minds in the industry, and create a stellar cigar exclusively for our customers Because of our size, history, and solid reputation in the industry, we have the resources and opportunities to work with standout manufacturers like Aganorsa Leaf to offer the best to our customers while also showcasing the innovation and talent of our team. We are proud of this collaboration with Aganorsa Leaf and expect this cigar to do very well.”

Crafted By JR: Aganorsa Leaf highlights the growing and blending prowess of Aganorsa Leaf, featuring a tantalizing blend of their Nicaraguan tobaccos and a dark, oily Mexican San Andres wrapper. Medium- to full-bodied in flavor and strength, the profile notes work together, offering hints of chocolate and espresso that combine effortlessly with dashes of tobacco sweetness and earthy spice, to create a complex, yet balanced and approachable cigar.

“JR Cigar has always been a valued partner of ours, and we were incredibly excited to partake in the Crafted By JR series” says Terence Reilly, Vice President of Sales for Aganorsa Leaf. “This was a unique project and our team enjoyed working with theirs, to craft this special cigar. Now we can’t wait for their customers to experience our blend.”

The Crafted By JR Aganorsa Leaf cigars will be packaged in custom-designed boxes of ten ($84.99), that feature elegant design work created to stand out in the humidor. Maintaining their exclusivity, the production of these 6×48 Toros will be restricted to just 7,500 cigars.This limited-edition launch will be available beginning July 10, exclusively at www.jrcigars.com.
