We study 5-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that admit an almost contact metric structure. In particular, we generalize the class of quasi-Sasaki manifolds and characterize these structures by their intrinsic torsion. Among other things, we see that these manifolds admit a unique metric connection that is compatible with the underlying almost contact metric structure. Finally, we construct a family of examples that are not quasi-Sasaki.
