Island Jim #2 by Oscar Valladares
$12.00Size: 6×52
Origin: Honduras
Wrapper: Colorado Maduro
Binder: Honduras
Filler: HondurasStrength: Medium-Full
Island Jim, and his red hot ‘Leaf by Oscar’ brand, have been tearing up the industry over the last few years. After starting off in the industry running the Leaf & Bean cigar shop in Pittsburgh, PA, Jim Robinson has gone on to create one of the fastest-selling boutiques on the market.
Shaped like a #2 pencil, both version of these Island Jim cigars are impressively crafted. On the original, you’ll find a Connecticut tip that’ll lend a subtle, tea-like sweetness to the cigar… cut it further down, under the Connecticut tip, and you’ll find a richer, chocolatey profile. For the maduro, the cigar stays the same, just swapping out a darker, richer wrapper leaf that provides a fuller-bodied profile.

Island Jim San Andres by Oscar Valladares
$12.00Size: 6.5×52
Origin: Honduras
Wrapper: Mexican San Andres/Ecuadorian Connecticut
Binder: Honduras
Filler: HondurasStrength: Medium-Full
With the Success of the Leaf by Oscar line, Oscar and Jim have created a new blend, under the name “Island Jim,” for Jim Robinson, a retailer out of Pittsburgh who has partnered with Oscar Valladares in his Danli, Honduras factory.
Since that cigar was such a hit he came out with the Island Jim San Andres. This cigar is currently made only in one size and called the #2 as this cigar was constructed to look like a #2 pencil. The Island Jim San Andres is a medium-full bodied smoke, with good solid tobacco flavors, the blend focuses more on the flavor profile of the tobaccos and less on the strength.
