Oliva Maduro's taking over CA!!

I'm hearing a lot of mixed reviews on this cigar. I have a box waiting on me, and I'm excited for them. I am a little nervous they won't live up to the hype though.

Not sure of the others, maybe Illusiones? Anjeos? I just happened to get a V Maddy in the mail today from PapaJohn, though.

They definitely live up to the hype. They are my favorite NC so far.

One vendor told me that this is the most hyped cigar since the Tat Black.

I wasn't around for the Tat Black revolution. I was still smoking swisher sweets at that time I think

Well that's wrong. It's the most hyped cigar since the Tat Frank.

New hype every two weeks it seems.

I have had many boxes of Oliva maduros, G and O, Robusto, Figurado, Torpedo, Special G, which in addition came with a free Oliva 8-pack of varying sizes on every occasion. I can say that, in my opinion, when they are on target, then they are a splendid smoke offering great value for money. However, the maduros, particularly, are also frequently off target... On the whole, still one of my go to cigars, though I am leaning increasingly to the naturals, with a preference of O over G.

I could be wrong, but I was assuming the OP was talking about the 'V' maddy which just saw a limited first release.

Right you are, and I should have deduced that the talk was about Vs, as the G and O Maduros aren't exactly new additions.
