2012 by Oscar Barberpole Lancero 7×38

The Oscar 2012 Barberpole Lancero is a long, lean stick that is part of the Oscar 2012 brand, which started as an homage to the Mayan calendar (that according to legend predicted the world would end in 2012). It features a dark Mexican San Andres maduro wrapper entwined with a Candela tobacco to create an eye-catching barber pole effect. This two-toned wrapper covers a Nicaraguan binder and a filler made of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos. Once lit, this medium-strength stick creates a palate-pleasing profile with its earthy, creamy, and peppery notes. The cigar is handmade at the Oscar Valladares Tobacco & Co. factory in Honduras.
