Short Review: Oliva serie G robusto
Normally, this is a really decent smoke. Earthy notes, smooth flavors from the connecticut shade wrapper, and down right enjoyable.
But of late, and I have to say it appears systemic, I've had 3 - from three different sources, and each had what I'd call a fatal flaw. Tonight, I took a picture, to illustrate... Sorry, low light and a bit of anger so it's not perfectly focused... Needless to say, the burning stems harshed out the smoke quite a bit. For the third time in as many tries, I did not finish my Oliva G, despite the promise of such a nice cigar. Flavor = 4 construction = -2 Thanks for tuning in. John
