Default 5 Vegas Gold robusto

I did a search and was quite surprised that I didn't find a review.


This is one of my favorite mild cigars. I LOVE a mild, Connecticut wrap cigar as my "first smoke of the day", and the 5 Vegas Gold robusto is one that never disappoints.

These are indeed mild, but not an airball smoke by any means. Nice flavors and aromas. This is one cigar that your wife would probably not complain about. Creamy, buttery with a toasty flavor on the finish. I very rarely have burn or draw problems with these. A great value as well. I don't think I've ever paid more than $2 a stick for these.

I wish they made a lonsdale or corona gorda size.

I generally don't like connecticuts, but I really like this one. I've given them to a couple of non cigar smokers who really enjoyed them as well.
