Have had two of these now, both good smokes, at the stronger end of the flavour scale. On the last one with a glass of decent port I didn't want it to finish. But have to say I still might not buy another as after exploring the cigar market a bit more I feel you are paying too much for the brand, and similar quality is available for significantly less. If you're not watching the pennies I'd recommend this fully, if you are I would suggest looking at the similar El Credito exquisitos or Alec Bradly black market punk, or ideally trying all three and deciding on your favourite.

Another good offering from Oliva,a lot more mellow than the series g and v cigars,these are perfect for chilling out with if you haven't had a big lunch or haven't eaten in a while but fancy a smoke,slightly nutty and good rounded tobacco flavours,I'm going to have to give Mitchell's own Oliva stogies a blast in the near future!

agree with the previous reviews about the wrapper being a bit shoddy on this one,and the draw being a bit on the easy side I think its because they feel a bit underfilled,however I enjoyed the flavour,sort of a slightly one dimensional spice that improves the longer you smoke it and complements the slight bitterness in a way I wasn't expecting,its probably a 3star smoke but for the price I give it 4

Oliva are now without a doubt my favourite non Cuban brand,this cigar was dark,rich and memorable and the box pressed design is done with almost scientific precision,thumbs up!

This was a major let down for me,it has a very thin wrapper almost like tissue paper and the taste was bitter and uninspiring from the start,being a fan of small cigars and having enjoyed the Nicaraguan la invictas I was expecting to enjoy this but all it tasted of was bitter mint and it fell apart half way through,the only plus point is the price

This cigar is without a doubt the best robusto I have ever had,I challenge anybody with a love of the psd4,the boli rc or the monty eddy to smoke this stogie and not be surprised and very impressed,it is dark full bodied and packs an unexpected punch. I have smoked a few cigars by Oliva(series v,g and o and all have been good quality but the series v are definitely the best)and the series v rival any Cuban I can think of,next time I find the time and patience for a robusto it will be one of these!!!
