Aganorsa Leaf Supreme Leaf International Inter-Robusto
2026 PCA International Limited Edition
As a phenomenal masterpiece in the boutique cigar segment, having swept international blind tasting charts in recent years with the strength of its authentic raw leaves, Aganorsa Leaf's "Supreme Leaf" series has always been a highly sought-after allocation product among advanced connoisseurs. At the 2026 PCA trade show, the brand delivered a stunning reverse launch — the Supreme Leaf International (International Limited Edition) officially arrived in the US market.
This Inter-Robusto size was originally a custom dimension specifically designed by the brand for high-end retailers in Europe and overseas, and had never been publicly released in the US. At the 2026 PCA show, Aganorsa for the first time introduced this limited size to the US market with a scarce supply of only 1,000 boxes available nationwide. In terms of craftsmanship and structure, it breaks from Supreme Leaf's traditional box-pressed format, unexpectedly adopting a round parejo shape. The 5 1/4 × 54 grand robusto size, leveraging the draw of a 54-ring gauge, fully unleashes the potential of Aganorsa’s signature Corojo '99 tobacco. In a short smoking time of approximately 45 minutes, the flavor exhibits a more focused and explosive intensity compared to standard sizes.

Tasting Notes: Flavor Variation in a 54-Ring Gauge Round Format
As a genuine Nicaraguan Puro, this international limited edition has received extremely high preliminary praise from Halfwheel and seasoned industry circles. The cigar maintains a medium-to-full strength profile throughout, and the round Parejo structure provides excellent cooling, ensuring the high concentration of aromas remains exceptionally pure, without the harshness or rawness often found in newer brands.
First Third: Upon lighting, the ample smoke volume characteristic of the 54-ring gauge immediately fills the palate. The oiliness provided by the selected Corojo '99 wrapper is incredibly clear, with dominant notes of pure white pepper spice, smooth leather, and the aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans. When retrohaling, the subtle sweetness of natural molasses from aged tobacco in the Jalapa region provides a delicate foundation, giving the overall structure fullness and impact.
Middle Third: As the burn smoothly progresses into the core, the airflow resistance of the round format is well-tuned, feeling open yet textured. The dominant notes shift entirely to the aged Ligero filler, a source of pride for the Aganorsa family, evolving into captivating flavors of sun-grown cedar, aged earthiness, and an exceptionally rich, mature almond oiliness. The cohesion of the smoke is intense, with clean and crisp transitions between layers, and an extremely dry finish.
Final Third: Moving into the final third, the flavors further purify as the heat progresses. The main profile shifts to dark cocoa, deeper notes of heavily roasted malt, and a gentle evolution of spices. Thanks to TABSA factory’s stringent standards for fermenting raw leaves and removing impurities, even when smoking down to the last few centimeters, any bitterness or harshness from tar is completely eliminated. A lingering aroma of spicy oiliness remains in the mouth, culminating in a robust and exceptionally elegant finish.
The Top Allocation Choice for Global Connoisseurs
Fully aligning with Supreme Leaf's classic flavor profile of "white pepper, aged leather, natural molasses sweetness, and roasted coffee beans," this 2026 PCA International Limited Edition Inter-Robusto, with its new round format, achieves a more linear and clearly layered integration between the oily flavors of the wrapper and the power of the inner Corojo core tobacco.
Carefully selected estate-grown materials, deeply aged over an extended period, completely eliminate harshness from the tobacco at its source, ensuring a silky smooth and stable draw even with high flavor saturation. The burn line is perfectly even throughout, and the draw consistency is impeccable. As a masterpiece with a limited allocation of only 1,000 boxes, it is an unparalleled benchmark for advanced enthusiasts to enrich their personal collections and deeply appreciate the pinnacle of modern Nicaraguan terroir craftsmanship. Launched today with great fanfare, we invite you to savor it.
