Review Notes:I recieved a free sampler pack of 5. I smoked 2 and did not like either,both were flavorless and harsh.So I gave 2 to a friend(Whom his and my taste almost never agree!)He smoked one and handed me the other back .I gave the other 2 to a guy who smokes "El cheapo's" .The jury is still out with his verdict.

Review Notes:I have had these cigars before the new owner had take over 5vegas. The difference is remarkable. Remarkably bad. No chance that this cigar will make a come back. Terrible tobacco with a very harsh taste and a very bitter smoke. When the lower the price to a close out I might give it another chance.

Review Notes:Let me start by saying I have smoked about 30 of these cigars. I purchased a couple of boxes at a steal off an auction site on the internet. These are my absolute favorite golf cigar. They meet the requirements: reliably good, hearty, lots of smoke and of course reasonably priced. I hand these things out like tees on the links. The construction of these cigars is fair, but the consistency of these is where it’s at, they are always good. They are very nice to look at; they are slightly dark with the Sumatra wrapper and have some big hairy veins. Now, I am a torpedo man, so one of the first things I look at is the cap. The cap on this 5 Vegas is one of the best I have ever seen, it affixes almost seamlessly to the cigar. After cutting this cigar, unlit, the draw was great. After this baby was lit the draw was even better, and it maintained all the way through. I have had about 50% of these gars plug up towards the end (this could be due to I cut a bit short, slop them up, but if I need more draw I make a deeper cut). This one had a nice even burn until the last inch and a half then it started to burn up one side. I have found this to be common for these cigars, some burn flawless some burn every which way, what’ ya going to do? This is a medium bodied cigar, very smooth, and I want to say that I it has tasted somewhat nutty sometimes. I think it all depends on what you are drinking at the time. On the links I burn through these pretty fast, about an hour. Bottom line: for the price these kick ass, I smoke them like they’re cigarettes. I have yet to have any of my friends tell me that they didn’t like these. I bought these for about $30.00 a box, they usually retail for about $65.00 a box. These are cheap enough that if you get a bad burn, you can toss it and grab another one. Let em’ rip, a great everyday smoker.
