Victor Sinclair Bohemian Red North Beach

I got this Corojo with a Bohemian sampler, considering the price I paid, it's been a real bargain. Wasn't expecting much at that price, but was pleasantly surprised. The taste was flavorful due to the corojo wrapper, but also smooth, which was really good considering that it was in the humidor only about 4 months. Not a great cigar, but will have you humming a tune.

This cigar is interesting as it's kind of sweet for a stronger medium stick. The packaging is novel and definitely gets your attention with it's clear lid and tobacco stuffed perimeter. That really doesn't matter...But, it does show the length that Victor Sinclair is going to make you notice his cigars. I'm sure he feels that when you break down and try it you may be surprised. I think I was on this one as I was fearful it may be all window dressing...It's not as it is very respectable. Don't be put off by the marketing, the toothy and blotchy wrapper, or the novel pigtail and closed foot. All that stuff does make you remember the cigar, but it's the taste at a reasonable price that supercedes the presentation. Recommended.

A decent second-tier cigar. They need alot of rest to smooth out a slight bitterness that I taste when they are fresh. Hit c bid and try a fiver, they ain't dog rockets by any stretch.

As I have said before about Victor, he just cannot make a bad cigar. This one is a bit stronger than most VC offerings, but that is thanks to a spicier leaf wrapping this long cut beauty. This is a fat litte bugger, so the burn and draw are great. For the price, you really cannot go wrong.

I found one lit up and boy was I surprised, it was good, very good. I wouldn't recommend you buy these because it takes forever for them to marry and mellow. I paid about $2 in 2001 and thought I had been ripped off, but now this is as good as any medium bodied corojo I have had. Sweet tobacco with a slight metallic note and good spice on the tongue. Take a shot if the price is right.

I have tried maybe 3-4 Corojo's and really thought they were a little too full bodied for me. But this one was perfect. the look, construction, and burn were excellent. complex and medium tast thru-out. a must try.
I gave one of these to a die hard Corojo smoker. het told me it was very good.

I must dig through my humidors and find the 2 or 3 of these I have left. I am very jealous of the reviewers that enjoyed theirs. Mine tasted like dry straw laced with mediocre tobacco. Maybe time has improved them. When I find them I will report their progress.

this was the most surprising cigar i've ever tried. I bought this purely on looks and out of curiousity not expecting too much. i was really blown away. its strong enough but not at all overpowering it has a lot of spice tastes and it a pretty complex tasting cigar and it's price was pretty good. also the ring gauges it come in are really fat which is a plus.

I wasn't expecting much after the series 5/5 maduro I had from the same Bohemian sampler. However, this was a dynamite cigar. It burned well, drew easily, and had great flavor. Nothing too powerful, but it had a little spice and finished with a peppery flavor. The aftertaste was plesant as well.

I didn't have too high expectations when I pulled this one out of the humidor. It is a nice looking cigar with a cool pig-tail on the head and an uncut foot. It lit up really easily and the draw was awsome. I would say it was medium bodied with a good taste and aroma. Overall, this is a cigar that I would recommend to corojo fans or anyone looking for a nice change of pace.
