5 Vegas Relic
Tobacco: Dominican
Republic puro
Size: 5.75 x 54
(perfecto)
Price: $4.16
I picked up a 5-pack of 5
Vegas Relics in Feb 2012 along with another box purchase. I aged them a year, then smoked them at odd
times when I didn't have a lot of time (they burn fast) but wanted something
very spicy. They
feature a toothy Corojo wrapper around a blend of Dominican-grown long-leaf
ligeros combined (according to the website) with a single leaf of 12-year-old
Dominican tobacco. It features a medium
body, but very strong in flavor. This
cigar tastes better than its stronger cousin (the Cask Strength) and is on par or
perhaps even a little better than High Primings.
The perfecto shape is a
little hard to get used to at first, and that's perhaps why I gravitate to the
High Primings, plus these are a little more expensive, but it's worth it.
