Monday (4-27-09), was not the best cigar day for me. The first stick I fired up was one given to me by a co-worker.
Flor de Oliva The first thing that I noticed was the cheap (to me) plastic band. The stick itself looked nice enough for being a budget cigar. I think he told me he paid less than $2 for it.
Meh, if this is the best that $2 can buy...you can keep it.
My after lunch smoke was going to be one I had just purchased from a local B&M. There was a guy there enjoying a cigar on his break with the owner. He said he was unsure of my cigar budget, but he loved these things.
Tatuaje, I am guessing this is a Tat that everyone raves about on the forums...
All I can say is that I have never been so dissapointed in a cigar as I was this one. It tasted to me like I think the Optimo in the plastic tube (thats been in my kitchen junk drawer for over 10 years) would taste. Sorry if I offend anyone here, but this thing just tasted stale.
