None. To me, I haven't had one I liked. I have tried a few more than once.. Same thing.

Cask Strength started off good for me.. Then turned into crap like the rest. I have a Classic and Cask Strength still in the cooler.

Classic and Gold are both nice change of pace for me, had a cask strength as well and liked it.

Generally however I prefer full bodied cigars.

I like the Classic torpedo and the Miami. Triple AAA is pretty decent as well.

Default Re: Your favorite 5 Vegas is..........

Tried most. Only two remain in my rotation:
-Cask Strength II
-A in the PC size -- great smoke - much different than any other size A

Triple A not bad, but just didn't do a lot for me

Wow.....

The only "good" one I have had is the "A". I'm yet to have the 3A. The relic is one of the most horriable smokes to date. I put one in my moochador today and it still reels of a green cigar.

My favorite of that line is the Miami series. The Series A is also pretty good

Depends what I'm in the mood for. The one that had the largest impact on me (i.e. I remembered it) was the AAA
