Leaf by Oscar’s Island Jim is certainly one of the most unique offerings from this renowned cigar maker.
This masterfully crafted Torpedo sized cigar is made in two two blends. With attention to detail, each one yields a very flavorful medium bodied smoking experience. Both contain vintage Honduran fillers and binder leaves. It’s the choice of wrappers that make things very interesting. Pick the Nicaraguan Jalapa one and you’ll taste that Nicaraguan signature of underlying strength. Choose the San Andres version and you get a Ecuadorian Grown Connecticut leaf around the foot. How’s that for complexity!
No doubt, any Island Jim you choose is a top pick. And either can be enjoyed anytime of the day by all smokers.

Fratello Bianco is Fratello Cigars’ first maduro blend.
Quite simply put, the Bianco is a fantastic example of a near perfect maduro cigar. Its flavor notes of cocoa, cream, and earth come bursting through this cigar due to its gorgeous dark Mexican wrapper. With attention to detail, it also sports a rich Dominican binder with filler tobaccos from USA/Nicaragua/Peru adding to its complexity.
Without doubt, Bianco is a hit. This medium to full bodied dark beauty has the critics united. With Blind Man’s Puff @91, Cigar Coop @91 and Cigar Authority @ 91, it’s safe to say this Fratello is another winner!
