Los Angeles, December 18 – Eduardo Jimenes founded the first cigar factory in the Dominican Republic – the La Aurora factory – way back in 1903.

Although sometimes underrated, the cigars coming from this facility are nothing less than world-class. The brilliant La Aurora Preferidos are well-known, of course, but the standard La Aurora line should be better appreciated.

These are medium-bodied cigars with elegant Cameroon wrappers and Dominican-grown binder and fillers. The La Aurora Robusto – five inches by 50 ring – is one of the most popular sizes and Mike’s Cigars has a special just for CigarCyclopedia.com readers: instead of the typical hard box, 25 cigars are offered in a convenient bundle at a savings of more than 51 percent from the retail price!

Instead of the $102.50 retail price, or Mike’s normal box price of $72.50, get the bundle now for just $49.95. Click here to take advantage of this unique, readers-only special. Our thanks to Mike’s for this terrific offer; you can buy as many of these bundles as you like until 9 a.m. Eastern time on Monday, December 24, or until supplies run out.

We found a lot more specials of interest as well:
