Oliva Seies O (gifted from "papajohn") Review

[grantford]

First quick review in a series of Olivas gited to me from papjohn. I don't claim to be a great writer, so let's get to the point here:

This was a series O, maduro I believe.
About 5" long and the shape of a football(perfecto?)
Draw was medium -perfect.
Smelled slightly sweet and coffee.

Lit it up and was surprised by a nice slightly spicy karate-chop to the back of my throat. Nice!!! Nice earth and some coffee here, too. Starts dry. A lot of smoke off the foot and some off the head.

Basically as you smoke this guy the pepper slowly mellows to reveal a slightly sweet maduro taste. Keep going and it gets a little toasty tasting as well past the 1/2 point. Some creamyness comes out as well.

Smoked it past where the band was (I took it off). This guy gets hot at he end. Lasted about 40 to 50 min. I wasn't timing this smoke.

Great little smoke.
7.5/10
