Oliva Orchant Seleccion Skinny Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Sunday 24 September, 2017 by rhys

Just put this one down. Pretty nice, good even burn the whole smoke, lasted about 50 mins. Very nice draw, smooth and tasty. Not many distinct flavours other than nice tobacco, but that may just be me. Got a bit tarry towards the last quarter. Great for a beginner like myself, good value, nice taste, even burn. I liked it, but have to recommend the tubed inka secret blend red (these 2 are my first purchase outside of cuba where i picked up the passion), as its just a nicer smoke and cheaper too

I ordered up various selection packs to restock the humidor after a cigar hiatus of a couple of years, included in which was this little beauty. After resting for a couple of days in the humidor I poured myself a generous measure of a Bruichladdich virgin cask edition and settled down in the garden for a little relaxation. First impressions were good, the construction was excellent and the cigar just looked good. It cut well and lit easily. I always found cigars to be as subjective as whisky when reviewing, but for what it is worth this is my tuppence worth...... Initially the cold draw I found to be quite astringent, warming quickly to dry toast and well worn leather as the first third progressed, once it warmed and progressed through the second third it mellowed dramatically, transitioning to a beautiful rich tobacco flavour underlayed with honeyed melon or pineapple, coffee and the barest hint of a pleasant spice (perhaps a little white pepper?). The final third remained very mild and gentle with a gradual increase in the overall spice. Overall the experience was incredibly moreish. The draw was perhaps a little looser than my preference, although this did not detract in any way from the experience. Overall I must say that it was a welcome return to cigar smoking, an exceptionally pleasant way to spend 45 minutes or so. If the other two vitola's are in the same league as this then I will be hard pressed to decide which gets the honour of filling my humidor. Well done Mitchell, you have produced an absolute belter!

Had about 6 of these now. All the others were perfect but this one was quite bitter and went out a couple of times too. However I would still maintain that this cigar is brilliant value for money and I will carry on buying for definite. If you are on a budget or are looking for an ever day puffing stick, you really should try a few of these.

Bit of a suprise this one, I ordered a single purely on impulse as part of a nice varied order that I have brought with me on a trip to Spain. My daily Cigar is a Davidoff 2000 which I obviously enjoy. However my first Skinny was a very pleasant suprise, a definite contender for the Davidoff 2000, very similar and much cheaper. I loved this singleton, I can honestly say that if they prove to be consistent in quality and taste Davidoff 2000's are in trouble. On the basis of my first encounter I would strongly recommend you try these

These have quickly become my go-to lunchtime cigar. Wonderfully smooth, thick smoke from every puff, razor sharp burn and perfect draw. The flavour is complex and creamy with hints of wood and spice throughout. An absolute bargain for such a quality smoke.
