Oliva All-Star Flight Sampler

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 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.

Oliva Serie G Maduro

This box-pressed cigar offers a medium-bodied flavor with a subtle hint of mild to medium smoke. It also has notes of cedar, toasted nuts, and possibly coffee or cocoa.

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.

Oliva Serie G Maduro

This is my first time trying the Serie G Maduro, and this was well worth the wait, as the sweetness was not unforgiving and was smooth throughout. The chocolate and toffee held the sweetness in the first two thirds, with the sweet fruit taking over in the final third. The retrohale was a treat of pepper and sweetness of cherry, leaving a sensational aroma throughout the smoke. This has not only taken a permanent spot in the humidor but a spot on my top 10 cigars and one I will definitely recommend to everyone.

Oliva Serie G

Woodsy flavor. Smooth draw. Consistent burn.

Oliva Serie G

Nice afternoon cigar considering the price tag

Oliva Serie G

Not bad, also nothing special

Oliva Serie G Maduro

Nice, but unremarkable cigar. Medium strength, not overly complex, medium to mild body.

Oliva Serie O

Ok. Nothing special

Oliva Gilberto Oliva Reserva

Great cigar! Had a bunch of oil deposits in the wrapper so it had that pimply look. Tasty and burned beautifully down to the last third than it started canoeing.

Oliva Serie G

Super easy draw! Probably the easiest I’ve ever had. Pretty bland flavor wise. Was my first pigtail; I just cut it iff
