What you think is a dog rocket and I think is a dog rocket are subject to our tastes.

You like the lline-up, buy it. Good way to smoke a variety of cigars.

I would not call this a first class sampler, I would call it a yard gar sampler. That being said I think the price is fair. You will probably find a few you like out of the 10.

Go for it.

Grab the herfadors too

5 of those cigars I would smoke if given to me. Would even reimburse the giver a dollar. Solid dollar smokes. The others I'd turn down. But for someone that's fairly inexperienced and wants a herfadors, sounds like a solid deal.

If you need a herf-a-dor, and have mooching friends every now and again, go for it.
The AB and Fuego are decent yard gars.
The Cuba Libre and 5Vegas are two others I've had, but didn't do much for me.
Don't know about the rest............

I'm thinking since I need a traveling herf, I might go ahead and get it. The only is I probably will only end up liking 1-2 of them and hate the rest. I tried something similar to this one time and only enjoyed like 3 of them. But I think the herf alone is worth getting.

It's only $21 bucks. If you get 2 now, you'll save $5.99 on shipping, buy 3 and save almost $12....That's 30 cigars and 3 Traveldors for $51!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wise man (azz?) once said it takes 3 smokes to know whether a cigar is really bad....

It's a good deal if need a travel herf and have a use for those smokes. As it is since I DO need give-away smokes to hand out at parties, this might not be a bad little add on if its still there when order next time.

5 vegas gold? had some of them somehow at one point. used them for chewing on during poker games where could not light up!

Also this one 5 for $5

The 5 Vegas Gold has an asbestos wrapper from consensus and personal experience.

I got the Felipe Gregorio and Doppelbak in a different sampler from here, and smoked them during my "smoke as many DRs as possible" phase. I think I smoked the Doppelbak alongside a Dutch Masters, and honestly the DM was better. YMMV.

But yeah, for that many cigars and a small herf-a-dor, go for it. Heck if they let you get two, grab the extra of OpFTH.

Why should you be any different than the rest of us? By the sampler and smoke all those bad boys. Consider it a cheap investment to gain experience in what you will avoid in the future. fog

I think you're referring to the 5Vegas Gold Maduro.
The 5Vegas Gold gold burns fine..................kinda like newspaper.
