News: La Aurora Puro Vintage 2004 Ships
The lack of La Aurora Puro Vintage 2004 has been a rather repeated topic of late, but all that can now change. Miami Cigar & Co. took delivery of the La Aurora Puro Vintage 2004 earlier today and will begin shipping the next Puro Vintage to retailers shortly.
The Puro Vintage 2004 debuted at IPCPR 2011, but has not been seen since. Only 1,000 boxes of eight are being released and unlike the La Aurora Puro Vintage 2003, most assume these will be gone in a rather quick fashion.
Earlier in the year Miami Cigar & Co. announced that the La Aurora 107 would be getting a Puro Vintage size, similar to that of the La Aurora Puro Vintage 2003. There’s no release date available for that creation, but it is expected to come this year.
Barry Stein of Miami Cigar & Co. confirmed that the La Aurora Puro Vintage 2003 is officially sold out.
Hope the '04s have more going for them than the '03s. To me, the ultimate exercise in futility was spending two hours (on four separate occasions) trying to coax some flavor out of what tasted like a Macanudo Diadema. A HUGE disappointment to me.
@PeteRILong before I took a job with Miami Cigar & Company I was a huge fan of the 2003. I loved the distinct notes of sunflower seeds I got. However, I will say the 2004 is more fuller in body and I agree with the review that is linked above.
Just want to clarify the Puro Vintage 2003 is sold out in our warehouses. There are a few stores that still have some on their shelves.
