Oscar Valladares The Oscar Maduro – Toro (6 x 52)
THE Oscar indicates there’s only one Oscar. But there’s two, a Habano and a Maduro. Should there only be one?

Drew Estate Liga Privada Unico (Papas Fritas) – Corona (4.5 x 44)
When you have good French fries, it’s impossible to have just one. Does the same apply to the Drew Estate Papas Fritas or should the scrap tobacco have been thrown into the scrap bin?
J. London Pink Telephone Booth – Lancero (6.75 x 42)
The Pink Telephone Booth was an exclusive for LA Cigar Collective that has since sold out. But I loved the blend and wanted to let it shine, so I’m reposting the original review from 2025 as this is the cigar that turned me onto Lanceros.
Definition Prolific BP Maduro (Yellow Band) – Toro (Box Press) (6.5 x 54)
Is the Definition Prolific BP Maduro still as adept at generating the flavor and enjoyment as the Natural?
Hermanos de Armas Veiled Mutiny (Fábrica Oveja Negra) – Toro (6 x 54)
“Veiled mutiny” is a colloquial term for collective insubordination, mass protests, or silent disobedience that acts as a “cloaked” refusal to follow orders without constituting open rebellion. With my first, I felt like this cigar was really living up to its name with the burn issues.
Oliva Monticello – Robusto (Box Press) (5 x 50)
Monticello was Thomas Jefferson’s home. Why the fuck Oliva named a cigar after it? Nobody seems to know. Does it matter if the cigar slaps?
Ohana Nui Mo Olelo – Toro (6 x 52)
The LACC Collective Pack offered a rare chance to try an unreleased event cigar from Ohana Nui. Mo’Olelo means tradition and story, should this cigar become part of Ohana Nui’s story?

Definition The Goods (White Band) – Salomon (Box Press) (7.25 x 57)
Does The Goods really deliver you know… uh, the goods?
Definition Equalizer (Blue Band) – Perfecto (Box Press) (5.5 x 54)
Is this Equalizer as smooth as Denzel?
Definition Defigero (Aqua Band) – Gran Toro (6.5 x 54)
It’s pronounced “Deaf-A-Hairo” because that’s what happens when Definition makes an all ligero cigar.
Definition DC Pig (Orange Band) – Perfecto (4.5 x 60)
This pig doesn’t fly, but it brings home the bacon.
Definition Conception (Burgundy Band) – Toro (Box Press) (6.5 x 54)
Ometepe tobacco is a defining characteristic of this cigar, including the name.

Nica Libre – Toro (Box Press) (6 x 54)

Does the scorpion have the sting?
Casa de Garcia Maduro – Toro (5.5 x 50)
Casa de Garcia is the Altadis budget brand that runs for about $2 a stick. I asked how bad the Connecticut could be… this was worse.
Ohana Nui Toasted Marshmallows Maduro – Lonsdale (7 x 44)
Does a Maduro Mexican San Andrés wrapper make the Toasted Marshmallow more like a s’more?

Ohana Nui means “big family.” Does the Pulse 10 Maduro make you feel like you’re part of the family?
Ohana Nui Left Hand High Maka Maka – Toro (6 x 52)
“High Maka Maka” (or haimakamaka) is a Hawaiian Pidgin term meaning stuck-up, pretentious, or arrogant, describing someone who thinks they’re better than others… but that’s not what makes this cigar left handed.
