5 Vegas Gold

I've had these before and I keep trying to give them another chance. It's a nice looking cigar. Well constructed with a good draw. (I had one problem with a stem in the past). It doesn't taste bad at all. It pains me to say this since I like the other cigars in the line so well, but this cigar has no appreciative flavor for me. You know the "I can't taste my beer!" Miller commercials? Well, that's this cigar in a nutshell. It's ultra mild and has absolutely no "bite" to it at all. I was sniffing the smoke furiously, trying to get some more aroma, and I accidentally inhaled some. I didn't even notice until I blew out the mouthful of smoke. This was my first cigar in some days, so my palate was clean.

This may be a good starter smoke, or one for people who don't smoke cigars very much, like at a poker game, but I can't see what a regular cigar smoker would see in it.
