Review Notes: My experience was a little different than the other raters, I suppose. I did not find this cigar to be over-powering, but more like a good Montecristo. It even had that beautiful white-layered ash. I found it to be smooth and creamy w/ lots of cocoa and nuts on the palate, and a short but clean finish. The draw was powerful and the burn was perfectly even. I also love the Oliveros Classic. I would definitely buy a box of these.
