Overall Impression: This is a great cigar… Hands down. You simply cannot go wrogn buying this stick be it a beginner or a seasoned veteran. It delivers loads of great tastes for very little in the way of an asking price, and if you pay attention to various online offers sometimes they can be had for next to nothing. I highly suggest to one and all to try the Vegas 5 Gold line of cigars.
