I tried two new ones today

Macanudo churchill (not sure the exact make) - I didn't care for it at all, it was bland and didn't draw well at all.

5 Vegas - It had good flavor and a great draw but it was more full than I expected. It was a bit much for me right now being a newb. I got a bit green. I guess I will have to stick with the golds for a while.

Was it the 5 Vegas Series 'A'? It is a full smoke but its great tasting. When you smoke are you smoking on a full stomach or empty?

When I first started smoking, I found that I would feel a little light headed or even sick if I smoked and didnt eat anything. I usually try not to smoke when I havent eaten much that day.

Yeah. Those Macanudos are shit. The Victor Sinclair Sun Grown Series 55 I tried tonight was in the same league.

The 5 Vegas are really good. Take it slow...

Oh, yeah. Welcome, by the way. Use the search but if you can't find the answers you need this is a helpful bunch.

No, it was just the standard 5 Vegas. It started out really nice but then it just kept going. I smoked it about an hour after eating.

I'm glad someone else confirmed the Macanudo not being very good. I had always heard good things about them but I'm not impressed.

Punch is still at the top of my list so far. They just have a little something flavor wise to them that I can't put my finger on but that I really like. My local shop has Punch seconds for $2 and they rule. I think it's a second of the Presidente.
