Oliva Serie V Maduro

Well, I realize one week isn't rest, but IMO tar is never acceptable whether freshly rolled or aged. Tar happens to the best companies, which is why I will give the V Maduro another shot, but my rating for the individual cigar I smoked will absolutely be affected by the tar, by it going out, etc.

Of course, I can't write off the whole vitola due to one cigar though.

I have to agree that they need some rest. The one I smoked tasted great, but the last inch turned really bitter and sick tasting. I think in six months to a year these will be great smokes.

I ordered a 5 pak and am anxious to get a taste of this cigar. I will at least give it a rest in the humi for at least a couple of weeks before trying but hope that I can last that long.
