A really pleasant smoke and the aroma is just amazing. This could be my favourite so far.

Personally had a bit of a challenge whilst trying to draw from the cigar, I got a bit of a minty taste whilst being nice quickly turned into a bit of a sickening taste although I had a good time smoking it personally not my type of taste but I could definitely see why other people would like it, although it was in the tube I had bits of the cigar chipped off and scattered throughout the tube which made it a little messy but other than that it was okay at best

Oliva Serie V Torpedo Cigar - 1 Single
by Christopher
I dont usually go for large ring gauges so this was a new experience when it popped into my subscription box. This meaty 56 ring gauge cigar from Oliva is deceptive. Dont get me wrong, it packs a good Oliva punch, but it is also simultaneously deliciously smooth, with heaps of beautiful smoke that tastes and smells of roasted coffee and chocolate, with that usual Nicaragua spice on the finish (although its not overpowering). The ring gauge also helps to keep the burn nice and cool and I managed to get 1.25hrs out of this - which for the price is a bargain! Id definitely keep one or two in the humidor.

Bought this one in store, as usual service was great but as for the cigar, i had to relight 3+ times which in comparison to other new world cigars ive tried is just ridiculous. Had to leave it half way through as couldnt be asked lighting it up anymore.

Received this as a birthday present so thankfully I didn’t waste my money on it, because I got to say, I have never had a more unpleasant smoking experience. For a £21 stick made in the same factory as AJ Fernandez, to say the build and quality control was abysmal would be an understatement. Runs and tunnels on the underside required constant burn corrections and very little if any smoking. Sadly, it was only the final third that resembled a proper cigar, and I could actually smoke and taste it.
Flavour-wise, it was actually a very nice blend but as stated I only got to experience the final third or so. WouldÂ’ve love to be able to try the whole thing.
As my brothers cigar (exact same) was burning just fine, my verdict on the Salomon is that quality control is very very hit and miss. I would avoid the Salomon like the plague and try a different vitola instead. CanÂ’t recommend this one at all.
