Here it is almost midnight, and you guys are making me drool listing all those fabulous smokes. I just finished a bowl of burley and had to light up a JR Ultimate corona with a XX wrapper.
And Davey, I haven't had the pleasure to try any Vegas smokes yet. I've seen them listed in Cigar International's catalog and your description is enough to make me order some of those gars. Have you tried the Vegas Classics??
Good Night All,

DocW,

The classic is more toasty compared to the Gold. More fuller bodied and a bit of earthy complexity, but that is just to what my palette thinks ;)

the Gold is smoother and more buttery cream ( but I do not want anyone thinking it is anything other than premium leaf...no flavoring whatsoever).


YMMV,
Davey




nite all..........
 
Thanks for the info, Davey. Your descriptions are appreciated, and I think it's time to try some of those Vegas smokes. It's also time for me to light up a good briar this a.m. and head off for the day. Pretty cold here this morning and I think a nice heavy turkish will fit the bill.
