They are fire retardant. Plenty of other maduro goodness at the same price point. I've enjoyed just about every other 5 Vegas out there, these are just not worth the hassle for me.

Big fan of the 5 vegas line, but the Gold Maduro is one that I just flat out don't like. Bad burn, funky flavor - there are a lot of other good cheapies out there. Conversely, the regular Gold (Connecticut wrapper i believe) is one of my favorite cheapies.
They're terrible ROTT to me.
A few months in the humidor does do them a lot of good however.
It's not something I will go out of my way to buy. As said above there are plenty of cigars I enjoy in that price range.
The 5 Vegas A series being one of them.
Well, that's too bad.
Call me crazy, but I like them. They are a good cigar for when you are smoking meat and just killing time. I let mine rest for a year and I didn't have any burn issues.
The 5 Vegas Gold is not a bad cigar at all, same with the 5 Vegas Miami. The 5 Vegas AAA is a delicious cigar.Quote:

I'm sure they taste great, but the myriad of burn issues has me wary. It's not like I don't have dozens of other cigars that I want to try that DON'T have these issues.Quote:

Still bad news. The Gold however in box pressed isn't that bad if looking for a mild smoke. The only 5 Vegas I regularly buy are the AAA. Those are a decent smoke.
