Default Oliveros?

Looking mainly at the El Padrino Lucky Lou Torpedo.

Can someone comment on this cigar brand and even the line (padrino)?

I searched and nobody has written a review. I am very intruiged by this cigar and i don't know why.

Does anyone have 1-2 that we could make a trade on, i want to try one. Even the rest of the Oliveros line. I don't know why, but i know nothing about the brand... yet i still think i might really like them... wierd???

Just attended an event Thursday.

I'm not really a huge fan of Oliveros but i did enjoy their new King Havano Claro Torpedo. Little stout, IMHO, and I like stout!

I really wanted to like the El Padrino but I did not care for it.

I think I sold/gave away all of my Oliveros but I'll take a look in the cooler for you.

The only Oliveros I've had has been the XL for Men. From what I remember about it, I enjoyed it but haven't revisited it in a couple of years.

I smoked a few of these. I did not care for the flavor. Also they seemed slightly under filled.

I didn't care for this one either. In fact, I really don't like any of their cigars.

These Oliveros are great. I don't know why I like them but I do. A great daily smoke. May not be your thing but they work for me.

Not the greatest stick but I enjoy them. They are a nice smoke.

Bobby send me your addie and I'll get a sampler of the OLIVEROS I have to you.
I may have two types

I would say they are medium. They have lots of smoke which I like, and a unique flavor which is hard to pin down.
