They are gorgeous smokes, but I was not a big fan of the taste. Very bland IMHO.

I gotta agree with Kevin on this one. While they are a gorgeous stick, their taste is WAY TOO mild for me. If you are a fan of the mild, creamy sticks...this one is for you.

Exactly what Mac said. BTW Mac I just bought a fiver of those 2011 Holiday Blends. Did you grab some?

I pick up my box next week. I have bought a box every year since these were first released in 2009. This is one of my "must purchase" sticks each year.

Damn! Nice score brother!

I tried chasing the origin of that X you sent me, Tom. The band has an EO Brands insignia on it, that'd make it an Eddie Ortega cigar, not an Oliva. Unless Oliva made it for Eddie. Or Eddie made it for Oliva. I don't know.
I just don't make the Oliva connection at all.
Do you have any info on the origin of these?
It could be something Ortega and Espinoza did way back in 2003 or so?

Duh, well there ya go. It says right in the lid. It's an Oliva by EO Brands.

I have never seen it before. That's odd there's an Oliva I haven't met.

I dont think I would be able to bring myself to smoke it. Just want 1 to have and to look @ it. Coolest looking stick I have ever seen.

Looks like that Monte is getting some white mold under the cello. I had some of the Platinum series in tubes and had the same problem but the sticks tasted great after wiping the mold off. The couple I have left are being stored naked and havent had mold on them since.

Some kind of Padilla is all I know.

Finally found an undercrown while looking for the LP9. The undrcrown was a fantastic smoke. I see a box purchase soon.

I went back to discuss the contract for the new shop with the old guy that hit me up with the bundle of throwouts, this time it was in the evening so I accepted his congac and a smoke invite. This time however he broke out this monte and gave it to me saying it was not his thing but thought that i might enjoy it. So I did.

Went to Hollywood Smoke to pick up some Viajes since they're the only real distributor that I'm willing to drive to; so got some singles to try out before buying boxes

Jasonw560 · 12-18-2011, 07:16 PM

Got to sneak to a B&M in San Antonio this past weekend, and snagged a Tatuaje Habana VI, an AB Black Market toro, and a Undercrown bellicoso. Pictures forthcoming.
