For what it's worth, I'm a noob and I've tried a few other regular 5 Vegas types from samplers and wasn't overly impressed, by the Cask Strength is a winner for me. The box press 'feel,' was very new and unusual, but I really liked it after awhile, especially since it produced a lot of 'draw.' The taste had the really nice spicy-kinda-sweet flavor that I tend to prefer over the more 'leathery' taste I've found on other full-bodied smokes.
I unfortunately have never had the enjoyment of smoking an original CSI ...... Now I've had just about everything else that 5V has put out and the CSII and Miami are IMHO the best of the group. Either of these two just get better with age I recently herfed with a good friend and gave him a CSII with over 2 years on it. He was blown away and bummed at the same time. What a great stick this was and if I buy some I'll need to wait a long time to get the same experience he griped. I find myself pulling he trigger on these on the sprint sale or other bid/auction sites when the deal is great. It's nice to have fivers of these at 3 or 6 month intervals . I don't remember what BORK introduced me to dating my cigars but I thank you. The cedar and spiciness is what drew me into the CSII and I'll always have these on hand in. I enjoy the 5V A and AAA as well and have one of each of the limitadas from 08 coming forward and am going to smoke each on the fifth year. There's my 2 pennies .
