Review Notes: A looker. Thinly veined with a even, milk-chocolate colored wrapper. Starts predominantly woody with a toffee note on the finish. Picks up some cocoa and spice after an inch, but then remains status quo before intensifying for the final third. Good, but like the torpedo it doesn't quite measure up to my original experience with the Double Robusto. To me, the Double Robusto was a little more chocolatey and intense, like the best part of the Churchill in a more convenient size.

Review Notes: Either they are secretly using Cuban tobacco or they discovered the missing ingredient that Habanos uses. They have an earthy twang that only comes from one place on Earth. A solid sweet flavor is found from beginning to end. It's a trifecta of quality deserving of a perfect score. They better not start overpricing these like some of the lesser quality cigars previously mentioned here or I'll be p!$$ed. I can't wait to try these when they're 5, 10, and 15 years old.

Review Notes: All Olivas are good, but these are great. As far as other non Cubans are concerned, none are as good as these. Nuff said!

Review Notes: Excellent cigar. Very smooth and flavorful. Strong cigar without being harsh. Excellent taste regardless of what the enthu see ass below would have you believe of non-cuban cigars.

Review Notes: My congratulations go out to the Oliva company and their accomplishment of finally introducing a cigar that can match Cuban quality. I enjoyed this cigar from beginning to end. The only detraction would be the nicotine content was a little too high, but not overpowering. I'm definitely buying boxes to share. This is one cigar I would continue buying after the embargo to Cuba ends. To guage my tastes here are a list of my favorite cigars. 1. Ramon Allones Special Selected (Cuba) 2. Montecristo No. 2 (Cuba) (>3 yrs. Old) 3. Punch Churchills (Cuba) 4. Montecristo Petite Edmundo (Cuba) Ok, I am a huge Cuban cigar fan, but once I tried them I never returned to Dominican, Honduran, or Nicaraguan cigars. I just find them to taste too much like paper. All non Cuban cigars carry an underlying sour taste similar to paper. Yes even Opus X's and Padron Anniversaries' have a this quality plus they taste like their flavor injected.
