Oliva Oliva Serie G Maduro

Rating: 4.4/5 ⭐ Excellent smoke from start to finish. Great construction, effortless draw, plenty of smoke, and an excellent, consistent burn throughout the 70 minutes. The ash became a little fragile in the second half, but otherwise no construction issues. Rich, enjoyable flavors that remained fairly consistent throughout. Not a huge amount of development, but the flavors were good enough that it really didn't matter. Very little astringency, even in the final third. Nicotine strength was noticeable toward the end but never overwhelming. At 70 minutes, the smoking time was just about perfect. A thoroughly enjoyable, well-balanced cigar that I'd happily smoke again. 4.4/5 — Highly recommended.
