Can't find no dang Olivas

i've been hearing such great things about them, and i really want to get into them, but my b+m here doesnt carry them. id like to get a box, or probably just a 5er to start, but can anyone suggest a good blend? i usually smoke medium bodied, and like some good flavors. sorry, i know very little about them, and i see the different letters get thrown around regularly

thanks

Re: Can't find no dang Olivas

I think one of their best blends is the Oliva Serie G in maduro wrapper. Very choco/nutty with a touch of spice solid maduro cigar for a very reasonable price. The best blend Oliva makes in my opinion, and I am sure many others, is the Serie V Ligero Especial. Perhaps the smoothest full bodied smoke I have ever had. Try them out at nearly any of the online retailers.

Re: Can't find no dang Olivas

Oliva's can be found online quite easily. Do a search on Google for - Oliva cigar and you'll have more options that you can count!!

Stearns,

If you want, shoot me your B&M's information (name, address, phone number, contact name) and I'll pass it along to that area's rep and see if we can't get some Oliva's in your area.

Ian

Re: Can't find no dang Olivas

I bought a box of the G Maduro Belicosos. They are a superb smoke. I recommend them to everyone.

Smoking my first morning smoke in a very long time. It happens to be the Serie G maduro Belicoso. She makes a very sweet morning smoke with a cup of coffee, but don't expect to win a long-ash contest. She flakes like dandruff.

Re: Can't find no dang Olivas

I'm fond of the Serie O
G is good too
Never had a V but they get good reviews
I bought a box of Serie O from Famous Smoke - right now you can get free shipping and a 6 cigar Oliva Sampler that has one of each in it

Re: Can't find no dang Olivas

You cannot beat the V's in my book. Another favorite of mine by Oliva is the Special 'G' (3.7" x 4 - very comparable to the A.F. Hemingway Short Story but at less than half the cost. As a few before me have said, a quick Google search will result in an overwhelming number of online dealers with loads of Oliva's. Best of luck to you-

Re: Can't find no dang Olivas

I have had no problems finding O's or G's. The V's sometimes are a bit difficult because the torp was on the CA Top 25. All of them are worth seeking out.
