I researched the Oliva family, and was so impressed that I visited my local cigar merchant and bought one " O" Maduro Orion 7x54.This boy was $10 and my merchant stated" Let it rest- not long" It's been about six weeks. I just finished it as Tiger and DiMarco finished the 4th hole at The Masters.
I looked up the price and at $127 per 25- this is a $5.00 cigar.
The Orion is one big beautiful Maduro.The pre smoke was soft chocolate. At 1 1/2 inch I forced the ash to drop.The chocolate/coffee flavor started to change at about two inches and got a little meatier- good. Good volumes of smoke throughout. When there was about three inches left to smoke- the chocolate/coffee returned as it was the first 2 inches- it never left, just got a little bolder in the middle- which I liked. A great finish.
Never harsh or bitter.No youth.
Super impressed and will try every Oliva that is made.
