Big Five is 5 Vegas' first release in years, and this cigar will not disappoint for enthusiasts expecting top quality from this legendary brand.
Keeping in line with the 5 Vegas style of melding old world tradition with the tastes of modern enthusiasts, Big Five is a big ring, full-bodied gem which features a Habano wrapper with an all-Nicaraguan blend of filler tobaccos from Jalapa, Ometepe, Condega, and some Ligero leaf from Estelí. From the onset, this cigar is rich and spicy with notes of cedar, earth, and a hint of black pepper. Complex, slow burning, and one of the most enjoyable cigars, be sure to order a box today so you can try the latest release from 5 Vegas.
What a pleasant surprise this cigar is! Great appearance, feel, draw, burn and....more than adequate medium bodied taste. Yes, a terrific taste! I will be regularly keeping an adequate supply of these delicious dandies in my humidor from now on!

Aging is the trick.

OK. I smoked one ROTT. Disappointed, seriously disappointed.
The 2nd one I smoked about 3 weeks later, huge improvement but not what I expect from 5 Vegas yet.
2 Months and another huge improvement. I liked it.
I think the trick with this cigar is going to be let it age, it gets better and better.

Real big, real long smoke. Came a little dry so it throw the taste off a little. May try one more.

Good for your Big Payback fix.

Very similar to the dearly departed Room 101 Big Payback. If you're morning the loss of the Big Payback, like I am, this will do. The only problem is that the wrapper is too delicate. The cap unraveled and it split while smoking. Other than that it's the Big Payback.

Smooth and Light

This is my first review, and I'm new to the whole cigar world, but I had to say I really enjoyed this cigar. I was able to try it from the April 2018 cigar of the month club selections. It's smooth and burns slow. I only had to "touch it up" (I believe that's what you call it) one or two times. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 is because, like I said before I haven't been smoking cigars for very long, and didn't want to give it a 5 without more experience trying lots of other ones. :-) I will be buying a box of these!!!
