Wrapped in actual Connecticut broadleaf tobacco, the Leaf by Oscar Maduro Lancero brings rustic charm to your humidor. This 7x48 parejo comes in boxes of 20 sticks priced at $178.20, delivering medium-full strength perfect for after-dinner sessions. Its dark maduro wrapper glistens with oils, promising concentrated flavors without overwhelming new smokers.
Cold draw reveals dried fruit sweetness. Initial puffs deliver espresso bitterness balanced by milk chocolate creaminess. Cedar undertones emerge with white pepper tickle on retrohale. Moderate smoke output.
Leather and roasted nuts dominate as the burn line passes halfway. Noticeable nicotine kick develops, complemented by cinnamon spice. Ash holds firm for 1.5" despite lancero's slender build.
Mineral notes surface with intensified cocoa powder texture. Sweetness shifts from caramel to black cherry around the nub. Requires relight at 50-minute mark for optimal combustion.
Rolled in Honduras using Jamastran Valley filler tobaccos beneath that signature Nicaraguan wrapper. Oscar's team uses aged ligero leaves from Estelí for the peppery backbone. Each cigar spends 45 days in cedar-lined aging rooms before shipping.
