Pros:
|
Great draw, lots of smoke, pleasant maduro
|
|
Cons:
|
I want a bigger ring
|

Excellent maduro. This hearty maduro has a very nice flavor profile and produces tons of satisfying smoke. This would pair great with a nice cup of coffee. The cigar itself has some nice coffee and wood flavors. I would recommend the Oliva Serie O Maduro.

All around solid maduro cigar. Nic puro but grown in different regions to produce the blend.

none

Picked up a 10ct box of the double toro, 6 x 60 at an Oliva event locally. Love the large ring on this puppy, smoke was nice a cool and the draw was excellent. The wrapper on these is very nice, oily and not heavily veined.
I would certainly recommend these, as I would the vast majority of Oliva products. Outside of the FdO gold's......I can't think of an Oliva that I wouldn't feel fine giving away.

Pros:
|
Nice construction, good flavor
|
|
Cons:
|
Draw somewhat tight
|
|
I smoked the Oliva Serie O Maduro Double Toro last night. I thought the construction was really good and upon clipping, the flavors would be great, but the draw was fairly tight. While it did loosen up somewhat towards the end, it certainly needed tending to on a regular basis or it would go out on you. The burn was a little uneven at times, but a couple of touch ups with my torch took care of it. The flavor was excellent with notes of coffee and was very smooth.
I'd certainly smoke more of them and would hope others would have a better draw. Other than that, it would have been a 9+.
