Not a review of any kind. I am just going through the 5 Vegas that have been bombed and traded to me and really starting to dig the brand. Every one so far has been enjoyable and I haven't really gotten to the ones I was looking toward to the most. So far I have bought a few from the Daily Deal and Sprintsale and think these could easily be in my regular line up. Price point is good and so are the cigars I have had so far.

repeat after me.....it is all in your head...you do not like 5 Vegas Gold...You will not snatch any 5 Vegas Gold on Sprint....say that over and over..
-
the 5V red label is a good stick. I also like the AAA.
-
From the ones I've had, Gold, and AAA they were good. The gold is a little mild for my taste but it was still very smooth. Is there one that stands out above the rest?dennisking:the 5V red label is a good stick. I also like the AAA. -
Have you tried the cask strength....that's the "standout" IMHODarktower007:

Only ones I have had so far are the Gold Maduro, Cask Strength, and High Primings. To my surprise the Gold Maduro was my least favorite but still good. In the humi I have a Gold, A, AAA, Limitada 13 and Classic. As far as I know the only ones I am missing are the Relic and Miami.

Not to worry, for now... their not on my radar just yet. I do have a tiny Gold corona size somewhere in line that I haven't tried yet.jd50ae:repeat after me.....it is all in your head...you do not like 5 Vegas Gold...You will not snatch any 5 Vegas Gold on Sprint....say that over and over.. -

I'm a huge fan of the Classic and high primings,especially the corona size. I just love the straight up sweet tobacco taste. Then the A. Not so much the AAA it just doesn't do it for me. The Cask strength I thought is one that needs some aging before it develops into a really good smoke. I've only had 1 Relic and thought it was pretty good to.

Speaking of the Miami has anyone tried the new version yet? Wonder how it stacks up to the original.ejgorman:

My 5 Vegas Humidor is plump with 5 Vegas Gold right now because of an outrageous bomb from Patrickbrick. But I did see it and I almost got it, thanks for asking. -

I liked 5 Vegas from the very first one I smoked. The samplers are a good way to go if you have not tried them.
I smoked an 'A' yesterday that had about 3 months on it and I was surprised how much it had improved with a much fuller, not strong, flavor. In fact all of the 5 Vegas line seems to improve with some rest or aging.
I tend to go for a 5 Vegas gold with coffee and the most age I have put on them is about 3 weeks. The Gold just seems ready to go but after a recent BOMB by Patrickbrick I may actually get to let a couple sit for a lot longer.
IMHO The Relic and Animal I think should be dry boxed for awhile. Walt could possibly add some insight about these 2. -
I like the 'A'. I've found them to be very consistent from batch to batch and in all the sizes.
-
I had a Cask Strength last night that FireRob sent me. It was very good.
-

Glad to hear you liked it & I didn't lead you astray.....I love them with a glass of red wine. And the cask only gets better with ago IMO. If you can set a couple aside for a year or two you'll be in for a treat. -
Easy does it boys. Eric C I just got done sending a PM with an address. Sorry for the delay, had my daughters 3rd bday party. So call off the gang bang.

Jd do yourself a solid and put the Relic away for a year or so. They can be pretty rough without some decent rest on them.

From what I have read from JD that would never happen. Might as well ask the man to give up cigars before one will last a year in his HumiPoker Slob:Jd do yourself a solid and put the Relic away for a year or so. They can be pretty rough without some decent rest on them.
