This is the first time I’ve ever smoked an Oliva. I picked up this one on a recommendation from a viewer of this blog (sorry I forgot who gave me the recommendation). This was a very nice, easy smoke. Watch the video below to hear my thoughts on this Oliva.

I’m glad you enjoyed the Oliva. The one I had was the Serie V, which has a fuller flavor than the Connecticut Reserve, but they’re both good smokes. I highly recommend the Serie V from Oliva. I’m enjoying the blog, and its helping me compose a list of cigar brands I want to try out.

Thanks Kyle. I appreciate it. I picked up a Serie V. I’m going to blog about it soon!

Great! The Serie V is my favorite stick so far.
