Well i received a VERY nice bomb from netprophet (please give him some RG!) including 5 great smokes i've been dying to try but haven't had the time to really get out to my local B&M to purchase them myself. One of the cigars i have been dying to try was ANY 5vegas cigar since i have read so much and heard so much about them. He generously sent two of them for me.
Today i went with my buddy and as always gave him a cigar of mine to try (forgot what kinda i wanna say a Raefeal something or other). He loved the cigar and said about half way through, this is my new go to cigar. That made me happy knowing he loved it. Anyways i sat down at a hookah bar (where you buy tobacco for a hookah and rent an actual hookah, it's also a cafe with food drinks ect ect). So obviously smoking is aloud. So he got a cup of coffee and a bite to eat. We sat down and we cut our cigars.
The pre-lite draw was fantastic not to much resistance but yet there was just a little which is what i love when it comes to a draw in a cigar. The flavor was mild but as soon as i lite the cigar it exploded with flavor. He had a real nice carmel/creamy taste with some nice undertones which my newb palate cannot identify yet. BUT they were a very nice touch to the creamy/carmel taste. It had a very even and consistant burn through the whole cigar which i love. I hate having to fight with a cigar and keep fixing it and struggling with it, this was the exact opposite.
The taste stayed pretty consistant through the whole cigar and i was very pleased with that since i loved it so much and the finish only got better. The finish never let go of that creamy taste which i love so much and i actually burnt my fingers a couple of times. It was then i decided it would be a good idea to let it go before i end up with bandages on my fingers and being made fun of at work the next day.
the smoke was quite pleasing as well, although it wasn't as thick as i would like it to be but for some reason i have trouble producing a thick smoke. My friends could smoke the same cigar,cig, what ever and will always produce thicker smoke. So i blame that on me and not the cigar. It did however produce quite a bit of smoke. I would take one puff and get a medium amount but not quite satisfying but by the time i took 2 or 3 puffs in a row the smoke would just billow around my face and the cigar. I actually had to move my head around a few times to keep the smoke from getting in my eye (i love to play with smoke if its making O-rings or just watching it billow out slowly and thick, i like to take my time with it... don't take that in the wrong way PLEASE!!!:r).
Overall this cigar has earned a place on my go-to list of cigars.
I would rate it a 8.75 out of 10 (10 being high of course).
Thanks again to netprophet for delivering a very wonderful smoke and a chance to share one with a buddy!!!
edit: sorry no pics this time, was smoking with a buddy didn't even think about it.
