Meet the Leaf by Oscar Valladares The Woody Maduro - an 80-ring behemoth wrapped in oily Nicaraguan Maduro leaf. At $54 per single cigar presented in its signature tobacco leaf packaging, this Honduran brute measures 21cm long with medium-full strength. Perfect for after-dinner indulgence, it delivers smoke sessions lasting 90+ minutes.
Initial Third: Immediate dark chocolate notes with espresso bitterness. Thick smoke output, perfect draw with zero resistance despite massive ring gauge.
Middle Third: Transition to roasted nuts and cedar. Noticeable nicotine kick emerges - pair with sugary drink unless you're a full-bodied veteran.
Final Third: Leather and molasses dominate with charred wood undertones. Sweetness persists through retrohale. Expect 1-inch ash holds between taps.
Requires 54+ ring cutter. The maduro wrapper shows minimal veins despite size. Tip: Remove outer tobacco leaf slowly to prevent wrapper damage. Performs best at 65% humidity - drier than typical Cubans.
