   🔥 O.M. Cigars – 5th Anniversary Edition

   💰 MSRP: $59 / 5-pack (sale price)
   📊 Strength: Medium-to-Full Body

   Pre-Light:
   • Aroma: Light nuttiness with a faint touch of cocoa.
   • Cold Draw: Subtle blend of pepper, anise, and cocoa.

   1st Third:
   Right from first light, the cigar opens with nutty and earthy notes. Retrohale pushes forward pepper while the palate lingers with cocoa and nuttiness. Every now and then, faint hints of anise sneak through, adding a nice layer of intrigue.

   2nd Third:
   Beautiful transition here. Retrohale shifts to earthy tones with a touch of light spice. On the draw, a creamy, buttery essence takes center stage, backed by faint earth. Burn line stays sharp. As it develops, the spice reclaims dominance, with creaminess stepping back but still present in the background.

   Final Third:
   Spice (leaning toward anise) remains the star, followed closely by earth. Retrohale balances earthy spice with a touch of creaminess. The creaminess returns, but not as rich and buttery as before—more of a supporting role this time. Complexity stays high, keeping the profile dynamic to the nub.

   Final Thoughts:
   This cigar is a showcase of complexity. Flavors constantly evolve, hide, and reappear, sometimes combining to create new notes altogether. Sharing this stick with family was a treat—we all caught a “cream soda” note during the second third while pairing with cognac, which may have amplified that creamy sweetness. The experience was so enjoyable it became an immediate humidor stocker. With only ~8,000 made, I’m glad I had the chance to smoke and share this gem. A truly memorable cigar.

     Thank you for this incredible review. The way you walked through every stage—from that light nuttiness on the pre‑light all the way to the anise‑leaning spice in the final third—shows a level of attention that any maker would be grateful for. You didn’t just smoke the 5th Anniversary… you studied it.

     Hearing you call out the transitions, the clean retrohale shifts, the buttery middle, the sharp burn line—those are the details we obsess over behind the scenes. When someone notices them, it feels like the blend is finally speaking the way it was meant to.

     I appreciate you giving this limited release its flowers and capturing its personality so clearly. The 5th Anniversary was crafted to be a celebration in leaf form, and your review reads like a proper toast.

     Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. May every one you light up treat you just as well.

     For the culture, always.

     Jennifer, thank you so much for the love. I’m glad you got to experience the 5th Anniversary at the festival—those moments always make a cigar taste even better. And those hints of cocoa you picked up… that’s the blend showing off a little.

     I appreciate you sharing your experience and giving this limited release its flowers. Hope the next one treats you just as well.

   I tried OM 5th Anniversary at The Cigar Life Festival in Oaks Pa, it was a great smoke. I enjoyed the notes it had me very mellow. Perfect stick to wind down with paired with a flavorful bourbon. I

     Star Child, thank you for the love. The 5th Anniversary was built exactly for that mellow, wind‑down moment you described. When a cigar can take you from the noise of a festival to pure calm—that’s when I know the blend is doing its job.

     Pairing it with a flavorful bourbon… now that’s a proper ceremony. You understood the assignment.

     I appreciate you giving it a try at The Cigar Life Festival and sharing your experience. Moments like that are why we craft these limited releases with so much intention.

     Here’s to more smooth nights and more sticks that hit just right.

     For the culture, always.

   I met Osvaldo at the TPE a few years ago, although he didn’t remember me. It was at one of the hotel bars after hours amongst a collection of my “cigar media” brethren. I think the fact that he didn’t remember me means I didn’t make much of an impression.  Anyway, I had a bit of a preconceived notion about this brand based on my initial interactions.  I smoked the OM 5th Anniversary Edition, a 6″ x 60 with a slight box press.  This is made at El Galan in the Dominican Republic. this cigar has a Habano 2000 wrapper, Corojo 2012 binder and fillers from Pueblo Nuevo, Condega, Estelí Nicaragua.  Five years in the cigar industry is halfway to overnight sensation, to be honest, I don’t know how old this cigar was, maybe OM is older than that, must be since it was the 2020 TPE where I met Osvaldo.  This cigar surprised me. It was absolutely delicious, with some dry cocoa, and that root beer flavor I got in the Los Gallos.  I have been indulging in the occasional root beer barrel candy here and there, but hadn’t had any inthe few days prior.  Perhaps the flavor memory is there, do they call that recency bias or something?  Anyway, I really enjoyed this cigar, burn and draw were great and the flavors kept me interested to the end.

     Greg we’re all getting older together. I have to keep notes so that I don’t forget. however a revisit once every two years helps to keep the memory.. please don’t stay away so long , you have so much to offer us. I thank you for not keeping me a secret..

     Thank you for such a thoughtful and honest review. It means a lot that you revisited the brand with an open mind, and I’m truly glad the 5th Anniversary surprised you in the best way.

     And as for not remembering you at that TPE bar—brother, those late‑night hotel‑bar gatherings are a blur of faces, laughter, and too many stories to count. If anything, I owe you a proper re‑introduction next time we cross paths.

     I’m grateful you took the time to break down the experience: the dry cocoa, that root‑beer note, the clean burn, the steady draw—those are exactly the kinds of moments we hope the blend delivers. Flavor memory or not, I’ll take the compliment.

     Thank you again for giving the cigar a fair shake and sharing your experience with such detail. Hope our next meeting is one we both remember.

     For the culture, always.
