5 Vegas Classic Fifty Five

I picked up a 5er of these on cbid.

Humidor time: 2 weeks

Prelight: Construction looks decent. The Sumatra wrapper has minimal veins. Prelight draw is easy, and tastes of wood and coffee.

Burn: Burn was wavy, but fairly even. Ash was solid and held on well. Draw was easy. Burn time was about 65 minutes, partially because it went out close to the nub and I didn't feel like relighting it at that point.

Flavor: This cigar was creamy, with flavors of wood and coffee. The finish made me think of molasses. Spice was fairly mild.

Summary: This was a quick smoke, but the flavors were decent. These are reasonably priced (especially on cbid), so I'll be picking up more.
