Oliva Master Blends III, or MB3, is a 92-rated beauty from the Oliva Cigar Factory in Esteli, Nicaragua. The Oliva family, originally from Cuba, created Master Blends as their own blend for private consumption among family and friends, but later released it in a somewhat limited fashion to all. Sporting a luscious, dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper together with a long-filler recipe of Cuban-seed, Nicaraguan Ligero tobaccos. It brings a well-rounded yet bold burst of spice, along with espresso and dark chocolate notes, that balance well with its earthy, long-lasting finish. Oliva Master Blends 3 is medium to full bodied strength.

Oliva Master Blends 3
My only complaint was a bit of an inconsistent burn. Definitely could have been user error to an extent. I’d definitely rather have a delicious cigar that burns a little wonky than a mediocre cigar that burns perfect. Still a very pleasant smoke.

1 year aged. Last of this batch. It's a solid, good smoke. Just not sure it makes the quality threshold for my humidor.

TL;DR - Earthy, creamy with intermittent toasted wood. One-dimensional. Recommended 👍 Aged 9 mos ⏳️ Pre-light is sweet and earthy. Light tobacco spice gathers on the tongue. Goldilocks construction and draw. Quality of the tobacco is clear. Light-up initially toasty wood 🪵 Spice to the forward palate. Tones down to a pleasant, creamy 🥛 and earthy smoke with intermittent toasted wood; one-dimensional. Burn is a challenge. It wants to go out, and it wants to burn faster on one side. This was dry-boxed for just under 2 hours. 4 hours next time. Medium flavors and strong nicotine. I'd like to try coffee pairing, but I need to fix the burn challenges first.

TL;DR - Earthy and creamy. Recommended 👍 10 mos aged ⏳️ Starts off with spices from a Christmas drink and some Cocoa powder. I'm thinking cinnamon and hint of clove. To clarify, it's not sweet. I'm also getting the earthy and creamy flavors I read about. Medium flavors and medium+ nicotine. Overall, this was a good smoke. I like it, but I'm not sure it's going to make the humidor.

Bitter, chemical, Astringent. Not good

White pepper taste on the lips and a good bit of smoke. Draw was easy and consistent throughout.

An excellent cigar that beats easily on serie g, v and o

Smoke almost burned my fingers wanting to take every inch of the cigar…

Not bad but pales in comparison to the rest of the Oliva line.

Not a favorit, a bit to mild flavor. Still evolving and it’s getting better but so far not super exciting. Doesn’t feel anything when pulling down in my throat. A bit of a hard pill aswell and doesn’t seem to create a lot of smoke. The burn, ash and appearance is really nice. Getting a lot of pyramid ash so the construction is beautiful, maybe a bit hard rolled?
