Oliva Series G

I'm usually a big fan of the Oliva Series G but the toro I smoked tonight was a real disappointment. The draw was tight from the very beginning and the flavors were well to mild for my palate. It seemed as if the creamy and earthy aroma and flavors were struggling to break through. It could have been due to the tight draw, as the cigar seemed to have opened up as I got towards the end. Before I banish this Nicaraguan cigar to the ash bin, I'll probably smoke another one in a few days to see if I just got a bad stick. One thing I can't complain about is the price. You can buy a box for $78.
