The Rare Leaf Reserve Titan showcases Aganorsa’s unique ability to produce regular-release cigars from select, low-yield leaves that most companies reserve for special editions. Its large ring gauge augments both the breadth and subtlety of the flavor progression: expect a medley of chocolate, coffee bean, oak, cedar, and floral sweetness along with gentle pepper and a mellow earthiness. The smoke is creamy, and the finish resonates long after the final draw, with BBQ sauce and mesquite nuances adding a memorable, savory touch.
Construction on the Titan is first-rate, with a fully packed, evenly rolled body capped in classic Cuban style. Despite its size, it delivers an even, razor-sharp burn and a cool draw from start to finish, while the double banded presentation underlines its premium status. The Titan format is ideal for extended sessions—sharing with friends, or solitary relaxation when you want a cigar that lasts and reveals itself slowly in waves of flavor.
Whether you’re an aficionado of big ring cigars or exploring the pinnacle of Aganorsa’s Nicaraguan expertise, the Rare Leaf Reserve Titan delivers a compelling journey of complexity, sweetness, and savory satisfaction—true to its rarefied origins.

Expect chocolate, coffee bean, oak, cedar, floral sweetness, mild pepper, creamy undertones, and late, savory hints of BBQ and mesquite.
Is the Rare Leaf Reserve Titan strong?
It is medium to full in strength—smooth, steadily evolving, and delivers body and complexity without overwhelming the palate.
How is the construction and draw?
Excellent construction, even burn, firm yet smooth draw, and a beautifully finished triple cap—hallmarks of TABSA quality.
Can the Titan be aged?
Yes, additional humidor age deepens the already rich, sweet, and savory elements, further rounding off any youthful edges for an even smoother experience.
What should I pair it with?
Pair with strong coffee, bourbon, aged rum, or dark beer to complement its chocolate and roasted notes.
Why is it called “Rare Leaf”?

Pleasantly suprised by this. I thought it would be full strength, but it comes in just a notch above medium. A great 2 hour smoke when you have the time.
