When cigar smokers hear Oscar Valladares' name, the immediate association is Leaf by Oscar cigars—sticks wrapped in raw tobacco leaves rather than cellophane. While these cigars are a huge hit, they were not Oscar’s first blend. The first cigar was "the 2012" by Oscar. The cigar was to be smoked on the day the Mayan calendar marked the end of the world.
Oscar likes to incorporate storytelling into his cigars. Since he felt the smokers of Honduras, Guatemala, and Mexico knew Mayan history, it would help sell his cigar. To mark five strong years in the cigar game, Oscar brought the 2012 line back with a few new additions. Among these—is the Oscar Valladares 2012 Connecticut cigar. The Mayan artwork featured on the cigar boxes and bands further highlights the story told by the Mayan calendar.
When puffing on an Oscar Valladares 2012 Connecticut cigar, the notes you’ll experience are cedar, light spice, cream, and nuts. Working together to make this creamy treat possible is a filler blend from Honduras and Nicaragua, a Honduran binder, and a Honduran Connecticut wrapper leaf.
The Mayan calendar end of the world date came and went without issue. But that doesn’t mean you can’t smoke like it’s the last night on earth with these soothing Connecticut sticks.
