5 Vegas Series A Animal is a 4.5 x 60 Perfecto from Nicaragua, listed at Medium-Full strength.
Animal is a compact 4.5 x 60 Perfecto/figurado, pairing a large ring gauge with tapered geometry for one of the most distinctive shapes in the Series A family. A Perfecto or figurado changes diameter along the cigar, so the balance of wrapper and filler naturally shifts as it burns. That makes the format an important part of the experience rather than simply a different measurement of the same cigar.
Underneath the size, the recipe remains Costa Rican maduro wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and long-fillers from Nicaragua, Honduras and the Dominican Republic. The filler tobaccos are aged for four years, and the finished cigars receive an additional six months of rest after rolling. The blend is known for dark chocolate, coffee, toasted earth, spice and lingering natural sweetness. Series A is the darker medium-full expression of the core 5 Vegas family, designed for smokers who want a richer maduro profile.
