Not a bad price point either.

Leaf by Oscar maduro lancero (7 x 38).

Always thought these were a gimmick cigar (wrapped in a tobacco leaf instead of cellophane). But a BOTL told me a while back that they were actually really good, so I grabbed a fiver from the Famous auction site.

Nice wrapper, well-rolled. Typical medium-bodied maduro flavors with a very noticeable anise flavor on the finish. Decent burn with only a few minor corrections. Not much nuance in the flavor.

A decent cigar, but nothing I would buy again.
