Kyle Gellis' Warped cigars are almost totally comprised of Aganorsa tobacco as are Reinier Lorenzo's HVC. Warped's La Colmena Amado No. 44 has a profile that most could not distinguish from an habano, but they're about $16.00 for a 5 x 44. Any Casa Fernandez you may find is old stock as Aganorsa has retired the Casa Fernandez branding. As I mentioned in another thread the Gurkha Nicarguan is totalamente Aganorsa. I've heard a rumor, but haven't scouted it out myself, as yet, that a very famous cigar retailer has an excellent sale on an HVC five pack sampler, which I believe is all Aganorsa.
