Futuro from Warped Cigars

Written By Eric Provost - July 27 2015

Futuro started as an idea at the 2014 IPCPR in Las Vegas between Kyle Gellis of Warped and Max Fernandez, son of Eduardo Fernandez of AGANORSA. The idea behind Futuro was simple but overly complicated, create a flavor profile and experience like nothing Warped nor Casa Fernandez has done previously.
 
Utilizing Aganorsa’s material from their “vault”, a section of their storage facility under lock and key and home to their most prized material, life was given to this Aganorsa puro.
