Aganorsa Leaf

Aganorsa Leaf: A dream come true

In 1998, Eduardo Antonio Fernández Pujals travelled to Nicaragua with a dream: to grow the best tobacco in the world, capturing the essence of the Cuban cigars of yesteryear. To achieve this, he assembled a team of Cuban master agronomists who had worked for Cubatobaco for decades, and brought them to Nicaragua. Since then, Aganorsa Leaf has become Nicaragua's largest tobacco producer, using Cuban seeds and traditional methods to produce exceptional tobacco.

For Eduardo, the most important part of choosing tobacco is smoking it. Making it part of you, getting it into your veins, into your blood. That's the only way you know what you've got between your fingers.

The company, which produces renowned brands such as Aganorsa Leaf, Casa Fernandez, Guardian of the Farm and JFR, is vertically integrated, overseeing every stage of production from seed to ash. This total control of the process guarantees cigars of exceptional quality, combining the unique characteristics of the Nicaraguan terroir with the classic Cuban flavour.
