As requested I am doing a review on an Oliva Serie V. This is the double toro in a 6x60 size and was 11 frickin bucks at my local shop. I'm just sitting here staring at this beautiful cigar getting ready to light it up. This is one awesome looking stick. It is very oily in appearance. The prelight draw feels a little tight and has hints of cocoa and hay. I have smoked 3 or 4 of these before and they were all great. Let's see how this one stacks up.
Ok it's lit and going great. About a half inch in and things couldn't be better. You ever get that feeling when you first light a cigar that you are in for a treat? That's what I'm getting right now. So far I would say it has a great caramel like creaminess to it with just a hint of spice.
This cigar is gaining in strength and is definitely a full bodied smoke and yet it is very smooth. The cocoa taste I had in the prelight is still present and I'm starting to pick up some coffee flavors as well. The draw and the amount of smoke has been perfect thus far.
The ash is a little flaky but it held on for about 2". This is a great cigar so far so it didn't bother me too much when it fell on my shirt.
It's still going great and nothing has changed with the flavors. But why mess with perfection right.
Nothing really changed in the flavor department but it was just a lot of creamy goodness right down to the nub. I was looking for something to nub it with and found something a little unique to use. I will definitely buy some more of these.
