Oscar Valladares
Ciseron Edition
There are times your cigar-loving customers ask for more than just a run of the mill smoke. That’s when you turn to the Oscar Valladares Ciseron Edition, which is just as much an art installation as it is a beautiful, well-blended cigar. They’ll be bragging about the cigars to anyone who passes by their humidor. They’ll be bragging about the boxes and bands it comes in to anyone who appreciates a fine piece of artwork. Beloved by some of the most prestigious reviewers in the industry and adored by the art community, this smoke was named for Elmer Ciserón Bautista, a subrealist and minimalist whose paintings have been rocking the art world since the early 1990s. Bautista’s work adorns the boxes, bands and the wrappers of these special smokes, which are more than just a follow up to Leaf by Oscar, another smash hit by Valladares. Bautista provided five total pieces of artwork for the set, with each piece of artwork getting a 500-box release. If this isn’t enough to convince your loyal customers to collect them all, let’s get to the details. This is the first time that a Valladares smoke didn’t use any Honduran tobacco in its blend, instead pivoting to an Ecuadorian sun grown wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and filler. A flavor profile of wood, nuts, wheat, and cocoa delights throughout, though especially in the final third when the Ciserón truly roars to life. This is the finale that will keep your customers coming back for more. Pepper, dried fruit and a heightened strength finish the smoke with an ending worthy of a standing ovation. Lively throughout the palate, from the gate the Ciserón Edition is an oasis of mouth-watering perfection sure to please even the most discerning smokers. All-encompassing, its profile is medium to full in flavor, with medium strength and a medium body. Other noteworthy attributes include a smoking time of a little over an hour (for the toro) with pairing recommendations of cinnamon, horchata and barleywine and a “box-buy” purchase recommendation. Oscar Valladares Tobacco Company has been a breath of fresh air on the boutique cigar scene for more than a decade now. The 2012, which was revisited years later with a true Honduran masterpiece to celebrate Valladares’ five-year anniversary, are among the highest-rated cigars of the last decade. The master blender is flashing both his maturity and his penchant for panache with this new combination of captivating artwork and carefully aged tobacco.
