Just got delivery on my VS Gordo Mega Sampler and fired up my first stick. If the rest of the bundle of 20 is anything like this first one, I'll be looking for this bundle over and over again. A terrific smoke for the price (45.00).

Wow! Can’t say 100% that this is the FIRST good thing I’ve heard about VS but fo’ sure it’s a very, very rare occurrence.

Last time I was in Vegas, Oct. 2019, I ran into the Walgreens on N. Las Vegas Blvd. for a quick purchase and after paying for it, saw a slew of Pineapple WOs in the back counter! However, there was a l-o-n-g line behind me so didn’t want to hold them up. Figured I enough days left and get a case or two later. Unfortunately never got a chance to circle back. d'oh!

I had a box of the CT. Yankee way back - they were forgettable - I even left them in the garage and found them about 5 years later. Still no good. Better upgrade to Gurkha.

You'll eventually find you can do much better for just a little more $ per cigar. Good luck! If you'd like any assist on scoring some good decent smokes message me anytime.✌🏼 Been bidding monthly for nearly 12 years.

Nyet!

I may have bought gurkhas to test the bidding system at cbid, and may have poisoned Carson with said gurkahs, but I have never bought or smoked a Victor Sinclair.

Bought an entire box back when my criteria centered on cost only. Most were OK for my lack of experience at the time, but there were 4-5 asbestos wrapped surprises that Traci Lords couldn't have drawn through

I like the Victor Sinclair Series Fiddy Five blend ..

Those 55's are decent after a 6 month nap and after two yrs they really shine
Red label and ? Other color ( black? Green?) are both good

ZRX1200, not everyone can have flashy stogies like you. A nice Illusione HL Maddie that you taunt noobs with.

Nah. My simpleton palate wouldn’t appreciate the subtle nuances of the PiWO. I have a Peach WO but saving it until I’m confident I can discern all the flavors and transitions. Thanks though…. RollEyes
