Like good ole’ Winston, I like to indulge in a cigar every once in a while, ok every weekend, but given my proximity to Cuba, finding a weekend cigar is a task I take seriously .
Last weekend I relaxed on the porch with some Southern Comfort straight up and a new 5 Vegas Gold Double Nickle cigar which I must say is a tasty combo. Some people claim they taste spices, chocolate, flowery notes in their cigar, or some other fruity flavor, but all I care about is whether it’s ripping my throat out.
The ‘5 Vegas Gold’ starts out a bit rough, I thought it was the spices, but I’m an idiot at times and soon realized it was just harsh at first. After a few minutes the cigar settled down, was damn smooth with a good ash and I enjoyed that son of a gun right down to the final draw. I tend to smoke my cigars to the bottom and the 5 Vegas Gold produced good flavor even at the end.
I’m not one to mess around with people’s weekend smokes, so buy some 5 Vegas Golds and consider yourself Sivelized.
