Really like this cigar, great value for a smooth medium to full body cigar. Much better than the Connecticut version which can be a bit wood smokey. Will be buying this again!

This is a good cigar! Had an issue with the wrapper coming away as I was smoking which meant I probably couldn’t return it as last time with a different stick I had to return for a replacement so didn’t bother trying.
Cold draw: prunes, chilli on the lips, lovely.
1/3 lots of white pepper on retrohale moving to strong espresso with Demerara sugar, sweet coffee.
2/3 lovely fresh baked bread with a hint of cinnamon. Little bit of spice on the tongue.
3/3 fell apart and unable to smoke
Lots of body, great smoke production. Didn’t find it too strong. Great draw and devastated it fell apart as it warmed up. Would get again and giving it 4 stars as I’ll ignore the damage in light of a fair review.

A well constructed cigar which stayed together nicely from start to finish. This is an excellent option for a short 20 smoke given the price tag and the great flavour. The burn was even and the draw was ideal. I have not found better for the price and this will sit nicely in the humidor as a short smoke alternative to other larger gauge options. Very happy with the Oliva and something I will not hesitate to order again.

Delicious
Light and nutty I really enjoyed this smoke
Great draw and in my opinion best new world cigar I have tried so far

Bought these in a sampler and I’ve found them a bit hit and miss. I’ve smoked about half of them. Basically a decent cigar but the odd one I’ve found very difficult to draw so much so that I have had to give up on it and turn to my Davidoffs. Pity but I guess you get what you pay for.

Fantastic, natural-tasting flavour. The plum and rum interacts with the base tobacco flavours beautifully. One of the best aromatics Ive tried.
