Oliva Orchant Seleccion Chubby Cigar - Box of 10

Date Added: Monday 06 March, 2017 by Staff

Oliva is one of the best nicaraguan cigars on the market with lots of awards and it's also famous for excellent quality tobacco. Made exclusive for us, Oliva Orchant selection Cigar range is available in 3 different sizes exclusive to C.Gars Ltd. Today I am sampling the Chubby guy of the selection which is exactly his name, Oliva Chubby with 4” length x 60 ring gauge. A very popular size in the UK. We tried to make this cigar especially for all the Havana smokers; Even if they are constructed in Nicaragua you will find them very close to the Cuban Palate. The presentation is lovely, boxed in 10’ with a nice construction composed by Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper as the Oliva V Melanio series, the most exclusive and selected line made by Oliva, and Nicaraguan binder and fillers. I would like to advise our customers to use a big blade cutter, something shorter than 56-60 ring blade can damage the cigar. This Chubby begins very sweet, woody with a few notes of white pepper on the palate. The cigar is leaving a very rich medium strength sweet smoke which reminds me of a delicious cup of milky coffee in the mornings. Finally ends with a lovely creamy taste and a very well balance peppery notes on the palate. Gorgeous, the draw was perfect during the whole smoke. David – Turmeaus, Cigars and Whisky Liverpool.

I have just smoked this while on a windy walk with the dog, so no coffee or beer. I too found it one dimensional, however I really enjoyed it. It had easy draw, good feel and burned really well. I would happily buy again.

Love these! Very smooth and sweet but not too sweet, like a creamy vanilla flavour! Great construction & all round burn. Always a pleasant aroma - really want to buy a box & age them but ahhh cash is always the problem... have to dig deep this winter and buy them for next year! I've had the shorty and the fatty, both very good cigars but the fatty just feels so right in the hand, very manly and macho, you know? Brilliant work, I will BUY A BOX, I MUST HAVE ONE!

Beautiful cigars, good fat and full of flavour. I like leaving these for a while 5-6 months and they are great I never buy a box of these but I really should.... Flavour wise I get nice sweet woody notes and with hints of spice. I have these normally with a Nicaraguan coffee and they go hand in hand.

I really enjoyed this cigar, despite it being a bit one dimensional. Leathery was the main taste I got. Very smooth. It's a shame that it is priced in the same territory as Cuban petit coronas and marevas which are way ahead. Drop the price a few quid and it might be worth keeping a few in the humidor

Tried one of these & loved every minute of it. Lovely quality smoke at a really great price. So good I am now buying a box of 10! Highly recommended.
