Leaf by Oscar Limited Edition 2018 Arrives at Cigora

Cigora, the online cigar retailer, has received the Leaf by Oscar Limited Edition 2018. This cigar, initially available only in the Asian market between 2018-2020, features a barber pole design.

The Leaf by Oscar Limited Edition 2018 employs a blend made up of a Mexican San Andrés wrapper and a Honduran-grown Connecticut wrapper, both crafted into a barber pole pattern. These wrappers encase a Honduran binder and filler, delivering a medium-bodied smoking experience known for its flavor notes of cream, cinnamon, leather, earth, and dark chocolate.

This limited edition cigar is available in two vitolas: a 6 x 54 toro priced at $212.99 for a bundle of 20 cigars, and a 6 x 60 gordo available at $229.99 per bundle of 20 cigars. While the exact production numbers remain undisclosed, the cigar is considered a limited-time offering, with an estimated 3,500 bundles created when it was exclusively released in the Asian market. Cigora, which now offers this cigar, is owned by the Scandinavian Tobacco Group, a company with various other cigar brands under its umbrella.
