There?s a saying amongst aficionados, which is Oliva rarely makes a bad cigar.
As a huge fan of their Serie V Melanios, I was recommended this Seleccion Orchant in their St James store and it did not disappoint.
Slightly on the full bodied side, but packs one heck of a punch in flavours and smoke creaminess.
Looking to order my next one soon.

Delicious maduro cigar. Probably the best maduro I have ever had for such a low cost.

I'm a big fan of Oliva Melanio Maduros so I thought I would try the Series G. What a fantastic cigar. This is definitely a sleeper cigar from Oliva. Very smooth, salty earth taste which I love, light expresso tones and beautiful sweetness on the retrohale. I will definitely but more of these.

Burn time was around an hour, no issues with unevenness or going out. Draw was easy-going. Smooth and pleasant throughout apart from one brief moment where it turned bitter. Recommended and I would certainly get another one.

I smoke a lot of robusto and churchill Oliva V , which I love. This Lancero had similar tasting notes but a bit more prominent, dark chocolate and coffee primarily. The main difference between the larger vitolas and this lancero would be the higher level of spice in the latter, a cajuon type spice. The spice is not over powering but is always there, especially at the first 1/3 and last 1/3. The middle 1/3 has very little spice and much more prominent dark chocolate and expresso tones.
I enjoyed this very much paired with Johnnie Walker Blue. I will certainly buy more of these Oliva V lanceros going forward.

If I were asked which cigar I?d recommend to a new enthusiast as their first? it?d be this one.
Such a great smoke for a petit corona 👌
