I just picked this up in a sampler pack courtesy of Strife and i would have to say it was not bad at all.. it was actually my favorite off the sticks i recieved. the flavors i believed were so so, but it was constructed beautifully and didnt give me any problems... Anyone here felt this way about this stick or can anyone tell me anything about it..

5 Vegas can be found for sale on most internet shopping sites, and also at cigarbid.com. Never had one, but commonly these are referred to as good 'value' cigars, if that helps.

I enjoyed the one cask-strength that I've smoked, but yeah, the Miamis are the best of the 5V line that I've had (not ever had an "A" for some reason; not on purpose).

I actually stayed pretty far away from 5 Vegas for a very long time because I thought that they were just a house blend for CI. Then I received a Blue Knuckle from Headbanger and have totally changed my perspective on them. Really good value smoke! I have not had a bad one and urge people to try atleast once. Good stuff!

I am a fan on the Cinco Vegas. I have not had a Cask Strength however I have had a Gold, Miami and also the A line. The gold is a little mellower, lighter and the A is a little stronger. The A is a good go to smoke if you want a quality, priced stick for the money.

Ive had the gold and the classic, the gold was very smooth...almost too smooth as it had very little character other than that. The "Classic" line however, I had a 6'er of the torpedos and Im looking to get more, they were great! Great flavor, awesome draw and good smoke, just a great all around for the price. I have a cask strength II, I want to try just waiting to be reunited with my humi. But I deffinetly recomend the Classic.

thanks guys i will try those others like the miami and those others pretty soon. the cask strength to me was the best constructed cigar that i have had and it burned perfectly. i also had no problems drawing at any time. At one point i got a little excited and tried smoking it a little bit too quickly and the cigar let me have it lol but ya it was not bad at all.

I'm looking forward to trying the new Relic, I've heard they're pretty tasty! The Gold is one of my go-to mild smokes.

Glad you enjoyed it, it was part of a 5 Vegas sampler bid I won a few months ago, 10 sticks, 5 different smokes. Good every day smoke for the money.
