The 5 Vegas Gold is a tad too light for me...wondering myself if the maduro wrapper will give it a little kick.

It is a great stick if you like lighter cigars. To me it would be great for a morning cigar with a cup of coffee.

The Gold and Gold Maduro are from Nestor Plasencia, made in his Honduran and Nicaraguan factories respectively. The Serie A is from Toarano (not to be confused with the Triple-A "AAA" which is from AJ Fernandez.)

Don't count on similarities between the Serie A and the Gold Maduro just because they both have dark wrappers. Just because one is great, doesn't mean the others will be. Or they might both be great to you.
Good to know...I didn't know all 3 were from different blenders and factories.

I've really liked the gold with a bright morning blend style of coffee. If I go with a darker, fuller bodied coffee I've noticed you can't even taste the 5 Vegas Gold...a maduro would hopefully fix that.

Yeah, the 5 Vegas cigars are pretty much all blended & made by a number of different manufacturers, just depends on which line it is within the marque, and the Limitadas can change from year to year (Jose Blanco & La Aurora did the 05-08s, Manuel Quesada/MATASA did 09, can't remember who did 10 offhand).
