AGANORSA Leaf Aniversario Connecticut Getting New Toro Tubo
There’s already an AGANORSA Leaf Aniversario Connecticut Toro; it measures 6 1/4 x 52. In a month, there will also be a 6 x 52 toro.
It’s not simply a quarter-inch of difference in length. The new Tubo is a round cigar while the original Toro is box-pressed. Also, as the name implies, the Tubo will come individually packaged in tubes. Blend-wise, the two cigars are the same: an Ecuadorian Connecticut-seed wrapper over Nicaraguan tobaccos grown by AGANORSA. The line is made at the company’s factory in Nicaragua.
The AGANORSA Leaf Aniversario Connecticut Tubo has an MSRP of $19.99 and comes in boxes of 10 cigars.
“The Aniversario Connecticut Tubo offers a perfect combination of elegance, convenience, and flavor,” said Terence Reilly, vp of sales & marketing for AGANORSA Leaf, in a press release. “It’s an ideal cigar for both longtime fans of the brand and smokers discovering Aganorsa for the first time.”
AGANORSA Leaf will show off the Aniversario Connecticut Tubo to retailers during the 2026 PCA Convention & Trade Show, which takes place April 18-20 in New Orleans. The company says it will ship the cigar to stores in late April.

ROCKY HILL, Conn. (WFSB) – People like Dena Pizzoferrato are changing what they put in their grocery carts after hearing about a cyclosporiasis outbreak.
“I’m kind of a little nervous so I’m looking to see what I buy right now,” Pizzoferrato said. “Today I didn’t buy any lettuce. I said I’m OK for now.”
Doctors say the illness is spread through parasites that make their way onto fresh produce. There have been 23 reported cases in Connecticut since May, but the CDC says the number is likely higher. Across the country, more than 840 cases and 86 hospitalizations have been reported in 31 states.
Symptoms include diarrhea and nausea that can last days to weeks. Doctors have not identified a source for the outbreak.
Dr. Ulysses Wu, chief epidemiologist at Hartford HealthCare, said a range of produce could be contaminated.
“Typical things you would think are vegetables or fruits. In the past, it’s been raspberries, basil, cilantro. You may find it in lettuces, bagged salads. So it’s a variety of things that can be contaminated, but they have not found it at this time,” said Wu.
Wu said residents should take precautions with their produce. “Take precautions with your fruit and your produce. We give the same advice when people go overseas that you should always peel something. You should always boil something,” he said.
Doctors also recommend washing produce thoroughly if boiling is not an option, and washing hands regularly.
