Great review Ferdie. I'm surprised that little thing lasted almost an hour.

I bet if you had one outta my stash, you'd be screwed.
ROTT, they are horrid. Just like most Oliva stuff. With some TLC, they are stellar. Just like most Oliva stuff that has had time to "come around".
It's always puzzled me why they don't take more care, like Fuente. Maybe their blends just don't lend themselves to wetter smoking like Fuente stuff. I suppose if every tobacconist keeps their stuff at 70%, Oliva stuff is always gonna suffer?

I split a cab of these w/ someone. All I ever got from the 5-6 that I had was Charcoal. Nothing else stood out ot me. The rest were all given away. If someone else can enjoy these, more power to em' because as mentioned, they can be had at a very good price. I believe the deal we got was about $1.70 each.
