Anyone know anything about these? They have a decent deal here on these: 25 of these plus a cigar jar humidor. The write up is pretty good but I wanted to hear if anyone tried these first hand. Let the comments flow!!!

These are very, very bad. If you want a decent, inexpensive maduro, pick up some Punch/Hoyo Rothschild maduro 2nds or some La Rosa Especial Mi Favorita maduros. Either is an infinitely better choice than the VS.

E-Chick,that VS Vintage Reserve is not the same as those VS Oscuros. It's a mild to Medium cigar. It was a cigar I used to smoke when I was into milder smokes. X

I bought some V-Sin's off the Thompson website a while back, a sampler pack of 10 as I recall. I still have 4 of them, want them? All of the ones I've had so far (including their Vintage) haven't been that great. One was plugged, mild flavor in all.

I bought a couple of "jars" of the VS oscuro they weren't all that bad. but they are mild and burn uneven on the golf course. (maybe the wind) Anyways I take them to the course and usually give them to guys that think I am really giving them something to smoke besides their optimos.

NO! Just throw them away. I can't take the abuse. I guess you know why I was giving them away now, huh?
