NEW Oliva Conneticut Cigar
 
Received my Oliva Connecticut earlier in the week from Ian (BengalMan) and enjoyed it today.

Appearance - Very light Connecticut wrapper....almost transparent.
Draw - Standard easy drawing Oliva cigar :tu
Taste - creamy, smokey, slight hints of sweetness and penut butter
Ash - Flakey, gray
Smoking time - One hour, 16 minutes

Overall a very enjoyable experience. The cigar did have a little twang and a little spicey feel on the nose exhale.

Overall I'd give this cigar a 92 out of a 100 and would highly recommend this cigar to a beginner or a frequent smoker.

Thanks Oliva and Ian!! :tu
