Re: Flor De Oliva's.

I prefer the sweetness of the FDO toro with the Sumatra wrapper, but also like the FDO Gold torpedo. Both have nice draw, lots of smoke and I haven't had any construction or burn issues. They do improve with about 6 months in the Humi. I bought a few FDO Maduro torpedos. Smoked one when I got them and the rest with some age. Found them to be very bland. The wrapper was a very pale color. Looked washed out, nothing like a 5 Vegas A or Oliva G maduro. I assumed that was why They lacked taste. Maybe they were out of a bad batch.
