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.

Smoked one of these with a dark red wine and was blown away with both. The cigar was so enjoyable that I couldn?t tell you about the thirds, it was great from start to finish. Chocolaty, smooth, effortless draw and uncomplicated. Don?t be put off by strength either, I am new to cigars and didn?t find this stick too strong, can?t say enough about it. Buy one and try, you won?t be disappointed.

NUB Cameroon 358 Cigar - 1 Single

First time trying one of these and it definitely was not a disappointment. I did not time it but it must have been at least 45 minutes. Smooth and creamy - like a malolactic wine - with hints of coffee and earthiness. It took a bit of lighting but I put that entirely down to my slightly lacklustre lighter; the thicker ring-gauge warrants a strong flame. Very happy to buy more of these.

An easy, pleasant and flavoursome, no fuss smoke for outdoors. Just light and go.

Great cigar. Caremal flavours through the mouth with a peppery taste through the nose. Great even burn and lasted about an hour. Felt relaxed and calm throughout. Good even burn. Highly recommend.

In almost 25 years of smoking cigars this is the first review I've left, because this cigar is something truly special. In general I only really love certain Cubans, but have been 'working' hard to get a good knowledge of new world cigars. I've been fortunate enough to smoke a very large number of very high end new world cigars at trade show, many impeccably built, blended and presented, but to my personal taste not even close to as enjoyable as a good Cuban. I've been buying and smoking a fair few new world cigars recently to expand my horizons a bit, including this one.
This is the first and so far only new world cigar I've absolutely loved. I've liked some, tolerated some, and hated more than a few. However this Gurkha stick is by far the best non-cuban I've ever smoked, and in fact one of the best cigars I've ever smoked.
This cigar was simply outstanding and (to me) way better than a whole lot of Cuban cigars. Totally balanced, Nicaraguan flavour comes through without the peppery, earthy harshness often present in Nicaraguan tobacco, a s
