I have tried the Gs, Os and Vs. My Fav is still the V Maddie!!!! I agree some age helps, but I believe that goes for all cigars.

Had my first Cloth Band last week (Gifted from MAC). That has got to be the best Oliva I have ever had. Awesome Cigar.

Seems that I've been missing out on the v's. The one I have will be laid to rest soon!!!

I like to rest all my smokes for a while before I even touch them (about 6 months)

V Maddies with age on them smoke oh so good. I have said it here before and will say it again but the '08s are downright amazing right now.

I agree, had an 09 and a 10. The age does play a major role with them.

It's funny this came up. I've tried the Conn, G, O, and V, loved them all, and have been thinking I should buy some and put them away. The Oliva site says the "Cameroon is a thin wrapper with little oils, its flavor will changed little from aging." Of course the site also says of the O; "Puros should be aged at generous humidity levels (70-78%) to preserve the natural oil" and I use 65% beads. I'm happy with the way my cigars smoke at 65% but maybe it's time to set up a separate humi for long term storage? And even if it's true the cam wrapper will not benefit from further aging, what about the wrapper and filler? I'm so confused
