5 Vegas Relic. Awesome cigar. That's all I really wanted to say.

    I totally disagree. You'll have to send me some to change my mind ;)

    how much age did it have on it?

    i always felt that this cigar needed a ton of age to get it up to its full potential.

    I had one of these the other day and thought the exact same thing. I'm actually gonna get a box in the near future.

    I think I'm out of them... have been through two boxes. You'll probably like other sticks with the same wrapper, such as the Diesel UC and the La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte.

    I disagree too. I have tried them young, and tried them with a year or so of age on them, and every time they start good, but by the 1/3 or 1/2 mark they turn bitter and harsh, or burn terribly. Not a fan.

    Haha, I love the Diesel UC and I have a box of LHC Oscuro fuertes in the bottom of my humidor! They need more age though.

    If you have any you need rid of, I'll gladly take them off your hands :0)

    I did not think the Relic had the Pennsylvania boradleaf wrapper. Either way glad you like them...I have never been a fan.

    You would be correct sir. And you beat me to it. The Relic doesn't have the PA Broadleaf but actually has a Dominican grown Cuban seed wrapper.

    Were you referring to the 5 Vegas AAA perhaps?

    I agree with the Relic-Skeptics... They are great for the first part, but go downhill fairly quickly... LOVE the first part, but put them down early
