5 vegas classic...

How have I not tried a 5 vegas classic yet?

Ive had the gold which i didnt fancy too much. And the Miami knuckle... which I think I had in the evening, on a totally empty stomach... and it kicked my butt.


But really... i kinda feel like an idiot, lol.

    The 5 Vegas Classic is my favorite so far. It is a medium I guess, and very creamy. If I had a few extra I would offer some up to you. I will be getting a box soon I hope.

    I need to get on the classic too ... i've only had the limitada 09 which probably isn't a good one to start with but i do have a cask strength and a relic aging ( along with about 2 more 09's )

    The Classics are very good IMHO.

    Alex, are you in the running for BOTL of the year, or something? Cuz you got my vote, bro!

    Ive got a classic in my humi. Never had one either. Ive had a few of the miami torps I didnt care for. Then I had the miami box press and I thought it was super good.

    The Classic is my favorite, too. One bit of advice, though: avoid the 55 vitola. It tends to be underfilled, IME. The torpedo and the panatela are excellent, though.

    The classic is my go to for yard work and cutting the grass. It's not that I consider that type of smoke, it is just tradition. If I bring something else out, it just doesn't seem right. I don't know what I'll do the day they say that they won't make them anymore.

    Yeah, the classic is great. I prefer the Robusto or Double Corona, but you should definitely give them a whirl.

    I guess you'll have to astro-turf the yard.

    ~~ +1, that is exactly how I feel about them... I particularly like the corona and robusto vitolas!

    I've never had a Cohiba ISOM, but they do remind me of an Upmann.

    Island South of Miami, or Cuba. And Sandman, you trying to take over Lassy's spot as the slightly nuts guy on the boards? If so, I'll send you some booze and you can really kick things off with some drunk posting.

    I only skim and what I got from this was kicking someone in the nuts on the boards while I was drinking some booze in Cuba trying to take over. Sure I'll have another drink if you are buying Garen!!!

    All this talk about the classic the other day I had to go home and smoke one. I really enjoy this cigar!

    Sandman taking over Cuba?? I think that's the best idea I've heard all year...

    Viva la Revolucion!
