Description

The 2012 by Oscar Connecticut Toro Cigar is a refined and expertly crafted smoke that showcases a balance of smoothness and complexity, making it an excellent choice for both seasoned and novice cigar enthusiasts. Handcrafted in Honduras by the esteemed Oscar Valladares, this 6 x 52 Toro-sized cigar is part of the celebrated 2012 by Oscar series, which commemorates the brand’s founding year. With its premium tobacco blend and silky Connecticut wrapper, this cigar offers a luxurious smoking experience that is both mild in strength and rich in flavor.

The cigar features a gorgeous Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, known for its smooth texture, light golden hue, and subtle sheen. Beneath the wrapper lies a carefully selected Honduran binder and a blend of Honduran and Nicaraguan fillers, which contribute to a well-balanced profile that delivers creaminess, mild spice, and a touch of natural sweetness. While the Connecticut wrapper ensures a smooth and approachable experience, the Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos add depth, preventing the cigar from being overly mild.

Upon lighting, the 2012 by Oscar Connecticut Toro opens with a creamy and nutty profile, featuring notes of toasted almonds, buttered toast, and vanilla, with a mild cedar undertone. The draw is effortless, producing a velvety smoke that coats the palate with subtle sweetness and a faint floral essence. The retrohale introduces a touch of white pepper, adding just the right amount of spice to balance the cigar’s milder nature.
