Ozgener Bosphorus

He's baaaaaaack!

When General Cigar absorbed CAO in 2010, Tim Ozgener stepped away from the cigar business. Now, more than a decade later, the former head of CAO is launching a new company and we couldn't be more excited! Ozgener Family Cigars recently debuted its first line of cigars at the PCA 2022 Convention & Trade Show. Bosphorus is the first of many new projects that focuses on uniting people from different backgrounds and bringing them joy, laughter, and positive moments. 

To start, a gorgeous Ecuadoran Sumatra wrapper holds an enchanting blend of tobaccos. With two binder leaves, one Ecuadoran Connecticut and the other Nicaraguan Jalapa, and a hearty mix of Nicaraguan fillers from three different regions (Esteli, Jalapa, and Ometepe), this cigar is a full-bodied masterpiece. Notes of earth, floral, wood, and pepper with invade your senses and excite your palate from start to finish. Available in four different box-pressed sizes, whose names all reflect their ring gauges, your're sure to have a favorite. Be one of the first to take this new cigar brand out for a test drive, pick up a box today!

Great news, Ozgener Bosphorus has received a well-deserved 93-rating, as well as being named the #22 Cigar of 2023, with the review noting: "Nearly flawless in appearance, this robusto delivers a smoke with a dessert-like quality, layering the palate with notes of cocoa powder and coffee balanced by secondary intonations of nutmeg, leather and wood, all before a marzipan finish."
