My understanding is that Flor de Olivas, is a different company from the Oliva company. I found the Flor de Olivas to be a bit lite, and not much in the way of complexity. I agree with Nicks impression.

im outside on my laptop now puffing this stick. the first 4 or 5 puffs off it and i wasnt too sure i was going to like it, i was like ehhh , but now ,after about 1/2 inch it is starting to really begin to produce a fairly pleasant flavor. Its not the rocky patel i smoked yesterday hehe but i can pick up trace elements of similarity i would definitly have to say , this is a great smoke tho for the price. i will definitly order a bundle of these , i found a 25 pack for 34.98 and the innernet compared to the 55$ at the local B&M. i really have no complaints about this cigar after the initial light up. for an everyday smoke when you dont want to burn away one of your babies this is the way to go so far. i got some of those quorums the other day, i think they are repulsing now !!! the first 2 and i was like yah..ok this isnt horrible , but now ive tried to smoke 3 since then and get more than 5 minutes into it with out tossing it, gives me dry mouth and i can tell if i try to finish it ill end up with a head ache !! the flavor of the quorum is like this weird artificial metallic?? taste. i cant really describe it other than ewww !! BIG UPS TO THE FLOR DE OLIVA !!!! this cigar really delivered more than i expected for 2 bucks. i may have to try a couple other sizes before i settle on the churchill but , i always end up coming back to that size for some reason !!

Tried a Quorum...I'm still in therapy for that one.

The Flor De Oliva's are very surprising. I'm going to keep those in my humi at all times.

I rarely buy bundles at my local B&M. I get adventurous at the B&M and get 5r's of different brands. IMHO the B&M can't compete with the online shops for bundles. I wish they could but taxes and overhead don't make it so.

I like the flor de olivas also, I give them away to my buddies that don't smoke much, great cigar on the golf course too. You don't get too mad if you forget it on the green.

Quorum.....wow, does that bring back memories! I've only had one bundle. Not too bad, nothing to write home about necessarily. I prefer consuegras.

my local store sells the churchill bundles for around 55 bucks, and the innernet i found em for 35 the cheapest. if i was going to buy them at the local store it would make more sense to me to order a box of hoyo de monterrey churchill's off JRcigar for 55 bucks with shipping. so i dont know what im going to do yet :baffled: i mite just order em for 35 and hope they kept them in a humidor, for that cheap i wonder what care was givin to them suckas!

The Oliva bundles are MUCH BETTER than the Quorum. Another kick a$$ stick for the price is the Carrera (Corojo). Cigars International has them for $42.00 a box.

yup those Sancho Panza's were to good to resist but I opted for the La Mancha (5.5" x 44) size.
