Oliva V question

Yes, as mentioned every year prior to 2011 were Torps. This was the first year they did a Toro. As Dave said the 2008 was the best right out of the gate but the V Maduros age very well. The 2008s really started coming into their own about a year maybe a little more ago and the 09s are really smoking well now too. Still sitting on a box of 2010s as the first few were good but I wanted to see how they aged as this blend really seems to improve leaps and bounds with age. Ironically I passed on a box of the '11s but have had a couple singles.
The regular Vs are pretty dark to the point where if I have loose singles of the Maduro and non Maduro in my cabinet and I often have to look at the band to tell the difference because they are that close in color.
