5 Vegas Relic Review

I am going to make this review VERY brief.

This cigar sucks! I smoked about 2" and it had a very sour taste and was burning like shit. It left a bad sour aftertaste in my mouth, too! This is one of the worst cigars I've had in a while.

A big disappointment!

I'll stick to the 5 Vegas Miami and the Cask Strength II.

Re: 5 Vegas Relic Review

At least I got the box for half price
just to try the smoke.
Now I will not try them for awhile


So a word of wisdom here Puff-ers!!
DO NOT bomb people cigars that are new, and you have not tried yourself!!

You and I know peoples taste differ, but wouldn't you want to hear what
the butcher has to say first!

Re: 5 Vegas Relic Review

I smoked one this weekend, and expected not to like it...

I was wrong. The little bastage was fantastic. Spicy and sweet! I was happily surprised.

Re: 5 Vegas Relic Review

I don't know what you guys are talking about? I smoked a Relic, and did a review on it a few weeks ago. I really enjoy the cigar. Maybe you just got a bad one or something? I'd rest on them for a few weeks and then smoke one again. They only get better with age.

But, if you still don't like it in the end. That's okay. Just more Relic's for me!
