The Corojo is a 100% Honduran tobacco blend, and the signature outer tobacco leaf is more than just packaging—it protects the cigar underneath during aging and shipping.
Flavor Profile
- Sweet tobacco
- Cedar
- Roasted coffee
- Earth
- Nuts
- Red pepper/spice
- Light cocoa
The opening brings wood, nuts and a touch of red pepper, while the cigar develops a creamier combination of sweet tobacco, coffee and cedar.
Construction & Burn
This is a slow-burning, easy-drawing Gordo. The 60-ring gauge produces a generous amount of smoke, and the construction is generally very consistent. The protective tobacco leaf is also a fun part of the experience—unwrap it before cutting and lighting.
Overall Experience
8.7/10
This is one of those cigars that looks unusual but seriously delivers once you get past the presentation. It’s not a powerhouse Corojo; instead, it leans toward creamy, sweet, nutty and woody flavors with enough pepper to keep things interesting.
The 6 × 60 format makes it a long, relaxed smoke, particularly good when you have time to sit back and enjoy it rather than rushing through it.
Burnt Leaf Insight
The Leaf by Oscar Corojo is a cigar I’d call “sneaky good.” The packaging gets everyone’s attention, but underneath is a beautifully oily Honduran Corojo with a surprisingly refined flavor profile. If you’re looking for a mellow-to-medium Honduran cigar with sweetness, creaminess, cedar and just enough spice, this is a very easy recommendation.
Burnt Leaf Rating: 8.7/10
