Ummm, like an old Oliva V maduro lancero.
I'm pretty sure it was a 2012. My buddy Garrett hooked me up.
Oh, Oliva V Maduro Lancero. Gorgeous little cigar. I made notes. The notes say: Righteous burn Perfect light Cocoa Dirt Rocks Ovaltine V lanceros are pretty much worthless new. They're wet and they tunnel and side burn and drive a person nuts. But like all Oliva stuff, they just get better and better and better until they are perfection. I'd prop this up as a top 10 maduro, any day. When I become King of the Universe, I can imagine smoking them with some sort of regularity. Please don't miss that positive stroke I gave to Oliva. They never miss. Perfect cigars day in and day out that increase in flavor and value over the years. You're not gonna find that in a Ghurka Ghost Shadow.

Definitely prefer the lanceros myself for most NC lines, and Oliva is no exception.

When I was into the next box, I immediately ordered two more. Eventually I had so many Special G's that I just quit. After 8 months under intensive care, they were ethereal. I smoked them pigs like they owed me money. Yes, this has nothing to do with lanceros. You just made me remember and I needed to share.

Re: Ummm, like an old Oliva V maduro lancero.
Stopped in a little shop one afternoon to get a cigar for the ride home. They had V lanceros for 4.99. Only had a 10 and some change so bought 2. Went back a few days later to buy the rest. Somebody beat me to them.

Re: Ummm, like an old Oliva V maduro lancero.
The V lancers has been my preferred stick for many years. Don't think I have more than half a dozen remaining from my last box.

Re: Ummm, like an old Oliva V maduro lancero.
Just smoked my first V Lancero. Got to say it's my favorite V so far.

Re: Ummm, like an old Oliva V maduro lancero.
Good choice there. I have a couple year old box I just cracked open not long ago. Should order another so it’s ready in 5 years.

Dammit. After my last V lancero, I vowed to buy several boxes. Now I must re-vow my vow.

Re: Ummm, like an old Oliva V maduro lancero.
I don't think Oliva makes the V lancero in a maduro.
The V lancero is the natural wrapper I believe. I submit my evidence: https://cigarsdaily.com/product/oliva-serie-v-lancero/ |

I don’t purposely save cigars for five years but I would be remiss in not saying plenty are in that age somewhere in my cigar mess. Too many good cigars.

Yea, not like I do it purposely, but sometimes stuff gets buried in the bottom of the coolidors.

Re: Ummm, like an old Oliva V maduro lancero.
I'm down to just one or two Oliva lanceros. I really need to order a box. They're one of my favorite lanceros along with My Father No. 4 and the Joya de Nicaragua Altano.
