Cigar Review Ozgener Bosphorus

Cigar Review Ozgener Bosphorus When Smoked: July 2024 Obtained from: loosie purchased online Rested/aged about 5 months in my humidor Size: Robusto B-52 (5 inches x 52 box pressed) Approximate cost: US$12 See ratings below In this video I review the Ozgener Family Cigars Bosphorus. The name is taken from the Bosphorus Strait in Turkey, which is where Tim Ozgener’s family came from. You may recognize Tim Ozgener’s father’s name – Cano A. Ozgener, founder of CAO cigar company. Tim Ozgener ran CAO, but a few years after the company was sold to General Cigar, Tim departed. For several years Tim Ozgener laid low – he was a “silent partner” in Crowned Heads cigar company, in fact Crowned Heads distributes Ozgener family cigars today. Looking at the Bosphorus, it is a decent-looking cigar but I was struck by how small it appeared for a robusto. A hair under 5 inches and the listed 52 ring gauge felt more like 48 gauge in my hand. But I’ve been wrong before, more on that later. The wrapper is slisted as “Havana 2000 grown in Ecuador,” it looks like a habano wrapper, bred from Cuban Corojo. Two binders on this cigar – an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade and unspecified Nicaraguan Jalapa region-grown leaf. All Nicaraguan fillers in the middle – looking at the foot, it appeared loosely packed, but the stick felt comfortably firm in my hand. I was happy with the construction on this stick. As I show in the video, the box press disappeared midway and the round cigar did appear to be 52 gauge, so I stand corrected about that. My draw preference is on the loose side, and this had a very, very loose draw. Burned great, no relights until one at the very end. No canoeing, straight burn all the way. The total smoke lasted just over an hour which is more than acceptable for a robusto. Body was in my opinion quite full, a lot of black pepper. This is not a smooth tasting cigar, and the flavor profile is not particularly complex – wood, with a bit of leather and maybe coffee, all overpowered by the black pepper spice which stuck around for most of the cigar. I rated this cigar a 8.0/10. At $12 or so retail (like most Crowned Heads distributed products, it is mostly a brick & mortar distribution with little discounting) I can’t recommend this for everyone – only if you are looking for a stronger, spicier experience would I suggest getting one.
