Any 5 Vegas Gold fans out there?

I've been smoking mostly really dark maduros lately, but I had a 5 Vegas Gold that came in a CI sampler.

Honestly, it was one of the most enjoyable cigars that I can remember in the last 3 months for me. Nice draw, very smooth, lots of smoke.

Maybe I'm more suited to milder cigars and have been trying to force the more full-flavored maduros too quickly ...

I like the 5 Vegas Gold and you can usually find them pretty affordable. Very good moring smoke.

They go good with coffee in the mornings every once in a while.

One of my favorite of that style cigar. Say what you want about 5 Vegas but they are a consistent, affordable smoke.

Good smoke to start the day. I wouldn't end the day on one though. I like my cigars a lot stronger than those.

I used to be into these but my tastes have drawn me away from them as of late.

I still don't mind the cask strengths.

My first was very smooth and mild, one that I would recommend to any new smoker. I am still there and enjoy this type of smoke very much. CAO Gold is also another one that I enjoy, a nice morning stick as they say.

The 5 Vegas Gold is my go to Saturday morning with coffee smoke. It has some very good flavors and I love the nuttiness to them.

I only smoked the 5 vegas miami, 2 vitola's, the knuckle and the toro and they both didn't impress me even though I am a pepin whore. The gold is a cigar I have never tried.

The 5 Vegas Golds are one of those cigars that I always keep around for a good morning smoke.

My favorite 5Vegas is the Double Nickel - 5"x55 box press beauty that throws a ton of creamy smoke. :-)

Agreed, although without the coffee:-).

These get much better after a bit of a nap too. I find them a bit harsh off the truck, but after a couple of months, they are fine. Nice and creamy.

Love how these surpise me everytime. They're in my plus colum to purchase when I come across good deals. For a mild cigar they have a great flavor profile. I agree they are pretty one dimensional, but I actually like that in a cigar as long as the one dimension is a great flavor.
