Don't think I have ever smoked one (can't remember, maybe in those early years). But I would like to know what responses you get on this thread.

I like the corojo bundles, the maduros not so much I don't like walking around with brown lips. I'm not sure if that was an isolated incident cause I was extra slobbery or what, but my lips were brown afterward.

I have had a good experience with the with the maduros so far. I picked one up at the B&M, and then proceeded to grab a bundle online. I have not tried the other wrappers but I wouldn't hesitate ... just need some more space in the cooler before I pick some up.

Been smokin Flor de Oliva 8 x 52 bundles (2- 3 a month ) for as long as I can remember. Can't beat them for $39 ea. I will continue to get them as long as I can. Med - full, lots of flavor,great construction. In the winter I cut them in half for 2 Roths and use a holder for 1 half.

Fantastic bargain

Thumbs up Re: flor de oliva

On the Churchill maduros, I seldom enjoy the first inch but after that they are just fine. I've had several singles of most if not all the others and like them as well. A very good bundle bargain deal.

Quite good. I prefer the maduro or corojo. Also, be sure to check out GR Specials Red Label.
