Oliva Serie G

Kind of a really boring smoke, unfortunately.

Oliva Serie O

3 - Buy a five-packer I really loved the larger ring guage of this stick. It was very hefty in the hand a great big grip for it. The pepper was very smooth on the retro and like another Oliva I've smoked, I get the hay flavor that i find kinda unique to the brand. Id call this stick a medium body with a thick smoke. I think this would be a fantastic camping cigar. It'd large enough to keep for a few hours and light enough that I could also be drinking with it. I think its a good any-time cigar that won't break the bank and one that i could hand out and not cry about. 1 - End of Days (98 -100) 2 - Buy a box (90 - 97) 3 - Buy a five-packer (74 - 89) 4 - Bargain-buy (55 - 73) 5 - One & done (35 - 54) 6 - Life is too short (15 - 34) 7 - Strait to jail (0 -14)

Oliva Serie G

Very good

Oliva Serie O

Smooth yet rich and complex retrohale.

Oliva Connecticut Reserve

A simple cigar on terms of flavor - wood and slight nuttiness. However, the construction is solid, the draw is clean, and the burn is even. Makes for a good cigar when you don't need anything complex.

This Nicaraguan Connecticut shade wrapper cigar delivered a perfect balance of mild to medium smoke. It imparted subtle hints of toasted almond, cedar, and a touch of creamy smoke. Truly remarkable! The smoke output was good to average. This cigar is an excellent choice for a morning coffee, and it’s definitely a keeper for both beginners and seasoned smokers. Grade B+

Oliva Serie O

This Nicaraguan Puro was a medium to bold stick, quite similar to the Serie V Melano. The Maduro wrapper really brought the whole thing together. It had a subtle hint of dark chocolate and a generous amount of toasted nuts. The smoke output was satisfactory. Pair excellent with Buffalo Trace Bourbon.

Oliva Serie O

Salty cedar and earth. A solid smoke with a classic profile.

Salty cedar. A solid smoke with a classic profile.

Oliva Serie O

TL;DR - a classic cigar featuring Cedar Earth and mineral. Some herb in the long finish. Not mind-blowing, but certainly worthy. Recommended 👍 Aged 15 mos, dry-boxed 1 hour ⏳️ Pre-light honey 🍯 and barnyard. Light-up is easy 👌 Starting core is salty cedar. Goldilocks construction and draw. This is a classic linear cigar with the core developing into Cedar and earth / mineral. Burn 🔥 is a-ok. Medium flavors and medium nicotine.

Oliva Serie G

Good draw and great burn and ash. Medium-bodied, offering notes of cedar.

Oliva Serie G

TL;DR - a linear roasted Hickory smoke. Chalk long finish. Neither offensive nor delicious. Recommended, though only as give-aways at events like tailgates and barbecues. Aged 14 mos, dry-boxed 6 hours⏳️Light-up is easy👌Construction is fine, but not immaculate. The cigar is soft in many places, suggesting a loose pack. Draw is fine, if on the verge of airy. Initial impressions: roasted Hickory. As the linear smoke progresses, there are hints at toasted almond and dark chocolate, making very few appearances. This has not been an offensive cigar, but it's not delicious either. Burn 🔥 is fast and required touch-ups. Medium/light flavors and medium/light nicotine. Pairing ideas: this might be an ideal tailgate cigar: not amazing, but good enough for me to smoke; and cheap enough that I can hand them to anybody without caring what they do with it.

Pleasantly surprised. Cacao from the start, great value for money.

Oliva Connecticut Reserve

Primi 2/3 molto mild. Inizia a prendere forza verso la fine con note speziate e legnose. In bocca rimangono note di frutta a guscio, sopratutto pinoli e noci. Sul finale una punta di amaro in bocca, non fastidiosa ma neppure piacevolissima. Sicuramente migliore fino alla parte finale. Non percepite le note cremose, perlopiù legno e tabacco. Persistenza in bocca veramente leggera, le note di frutta a guscio svaniscono in fretta e non rimane più alcun gusto degno di nota. Sigaro senza alcuna caratteristica degna di nota, non penso lo ricomprerò

Oliva Serie G

Woodsy flavor. Smooth draw. Consistent burn.

Oliva Connecticut Reserve

Very mellow flavors.
