Oliva Series V Maduro

[DarenH]

Bought 2 of these on a recommendation. Liked the first one. Found the second one nutty at first, growing bland and finally bitter. (Smoked them 2 weeks apart. But the second stick was in my humidor the whole time.) Any ideas on why this may be?

Simply could have been a dud

I had a similar experience with the one I tried. Not great. I think these are hit or miss.

I've had 3 of them and loved every one.

Enjoyed the one I smoked but nothing spectacular. Still prefer the standard V.

I tried to smoke one of these. I thought it was awful. Big disappointment. The first inch or so was good, then it turned sour with a chemical aftertaste, like the tobacco hadn't been fermented long enough.

I've really liked the ones I've smoked. Very tasty stick to me. I like the rich sweetness from the maddie wrapper over the V blend. Now what would really make me need a change of shorts would be a V maddie lancero.:dr:dr:dr
