For those looking for an everyday affordable smoke I would recommend the 5 Vegas Miami.  I recently purchased 10 from the daily deal and have really enjoyed them.  They have a nice draw, slightly firm allowing some resistance with a large amount of rich smoke.  The flavor is consistent throughout and is medium is strength.  If you can pick some up on a discount you will not be disappointed!  I have the Torpedo (6.1 X 52)

I agree on the everyday smoke. What's unique about them, to me, is they don't taste like anything else I have or have tried. The Knuckle is a good size too for those who like a bigger ring guage.

I also really dig on the 5 vegas miami. They really dont taste like anything ive had before and cant really pinpoint why that is. It's an awesome blend!

The Miami is one of the blends I'm not that crazy about...I think it is good, and I do like it somewhat, but in my opinion it's not as good as most of the other blends. The only ones I like less are the Relic and Limitada '07...which are not bad in their own right, but they just don't give me that wow factor that the other blends do. That said, there's not a single 5 Vegas blend that I don't like.

j0z3r, Obviously you've smoked too many Puros as it seems to have burned your taste buds! Everything I like or dislike your the complete opposite....So I'll say I hate Swisher Sweets (I really do). Lets hear how much you like them!! JK!!!

Never...although, I do have a grape swisher that's been calling my name...be back in a bit :)

Same here. I don't dislike them, but they're my least favorite 5 Vegas and my least favorite Pepin so far. There's a couple of each I haven't gotten around to, but that's where the Miami falls for me, so far.

I am quite fond of these sticks, it is one of my favorites. Has anybody ever had the special edition, is it just a special size or does it have a special blend as well?
