Yes! The MB3's are one of my favorite sticks Great dark and sweet flavors with a balanced spice in the beginning. They also have great construction as well. I bought a box of the robustos about a year ago and consider them some of my prized sticks up there with my Pork Tenderloins, Opus, and Padron Annies.

Great cigar and if you like the sample, cheaper cigars has them for about $125 for a box of the robustos. Enjoy them!

One of my faves, a full-bodied smoke with some complexity. Some earthy notes share the stage with other notes. C-bid usually has some at decent prices and they seem to be discounted on daily deals at Holts if I'm not mistaken. I think robos can be had for $7/per if you're patient and wait for deals.

The MB3's are absolutely fantastic. For an everyday smoke, IMO, you probably can't do better. Absolutely jump on the Holt's deal, you can't even get a better price than that on CBid!

WOW I guess that box at my local B&M has somebody else's name on it now. Thanks for the link, Holt's is my new "go to" place.

$37.50 for 10 beats the hell out of $225 for 20

The Oliva MB3s taste very similar to a PAM to me.
Thanks for spotting the deal on Holts! Had to pick
up 20 for $82 delivered.

About 15 months ago Holts had the MB3 robos
for about the same price. They're still resting
in my humi. Had to get 20 of those, also.

Xlnt smoke for an outstanding price.

For $3.75 a stick, I'm guessing you can't go wrong.

I really enjoyed the one I have tried. Has anyone ever noticed drastic differences in wrapper colors of these that they received in a sampler or fiver? I have two from a variety pack that are night and day in comparison. I'm sure it won't matter it just seemed odd. I should sacrifice one so it won't bother me anymore.
