In general I like the Victor Sinclair brand. I was surprised that I really enjoyed the Connecticut wrap Cabinet 99 as I am more of a Maduro fan. The only one that I wouldn't buy again was the Sun-cured.
This was a great value.

The beloved Black Label, a medium to full-bodied smoke that Cigar Insider awarded the prestigious 92 rating. The magical flavor of the Black Label leaves you finding Don Pepin Garcia's deft touch with tobacco entrancing.
Definitely earned its 92

Best Uses: Events, Special Occasions

I received this as a part of a Premium sampler.
Easy light, easy draw, good strong ash, mild, easy flavor. Other than the cost being a little bit more than I care to spend for an everyday cigar (even with Thompson's great pricing), this would be a great everyday cigar.
I will definitely keep this one in mind for a future way to treat myself!

I really don't feel like I have experienced enough cigars to give a 5 star rating. I am more partial to darker wraps and bolder taste. However, this Connecticut wrap was exceptional. Good mild flavor to the end.
I bought it as a part of a sampler, but will buy it on its own in the future. I'll be selfish with the few that I have now. My friends will have to wait until I have more of them before I share them!

I bought these through the auction site and have been very pleased with them. I have shared them with a number of friends and everybody has really enjoyed them. I haven't seen them available online or through the catalog, but keep watching for them. Will have to go back to the auction site soon!

I would definitely buy this cigar again! Great medium-mild flavor. I like the size; just right for when you don't have a lot of time to enjoy a long smoking cigar.
I had a couple of issues with the end falling apart but solved it by making a much smaller cut.
