Oliva O churchill maduro
This ring 50 and 7 inch long Churchill with its beautiful dark silky wrapper has a dark aroma of manure, a fine construction and the predraw is just fine.
The first flavors that I taste after lighting the cigar is a sweet leathery flavor, full and with that typical Oliva sweetness that you find in all their cigars, even in the stronger V series or the El Cobre line. It is a bit creamy, but the creaminess fades away slowly. The cigar remains full flavored but yet not full bodied. The creaminess re-appears with a slight hint of chocolate and it all disappears after reaching the middle of the cigar. From that time it is herbs, it starts with a light herby flavor and grows into a herby leather. There is more than enough smoke and the ashes, well, just look at the picture and remember, it is a Churchill. The burn is good. Would I buy this cigar again? No, I like the V series better Construction: 16 / 20 Draw: 14 / 20 Appearance: 16 / 20 Smoke & ash: 9 / 10 Burn: 14 / 20 Aroma (first part) 7 / 10 Aroma (middle part) 7 / 10 Aroma (last part) 7 / 10
