  • 5 Vegas series A

     03-19-2010, 9:33 AM

    Draw was to tight, burn was good, flavor was milder than I expected and the whole thing from start to finish tasted of earth...which is not bad, but I found it to be incredibly un-dynamic. Not a bad stick but not one I will get again. just not my tastes.

    Me either. These are totally over-rated and taste like burnt smores without the marshmallow. I'm not looking forward to the ones I have left at all.

    I'm a fan. I've had 4 or 5 and I loved each one. I'll take them off your hands if you REEEEALLY don't want them...

    Smoke more of them, trust me! Don't give up after one (I'm making an assumption from the way your post was worded).

    There is no blender but Litto Gomez, and I wish I was his merchant.

    This was identical to my take on the stick...however, my thoughts on it were "I'm glad I have more of these, because this is a stick I thought I'd like, and I will be able to give it a second try." But that's just how I think about a lot of sticks when I'm on the first try.


    There are two kinds of people in this world that go around beardless — boys and women — and I am neither one.

    Your assumption is correct. I have only had one. I may go back, but not anytime soon. I pretty much have my regular rotation set and have the cigars Im looking forward to trying set for a few months now.

    I was good with this stick, no draw problems and had a nice sweet finish. The AAA is better IMO.

    Also, what size did you have? I have sort of figured out that size is important for this stick. I personally love the Apocalypse and the Anomaly sizes.

    I have had a few of these now. The first one was perfect but the second one had a tight draw to it. But in defense of the cigar the humidity in my humidor had fluctuated down to around 65 and I had just gotten it back to 70 the day before I smoked it.
