Oliva V -- Not a fan.
 
The Oliva V really just doesn't do anything for me. It's not a BAD cigar, just doesn't grab me like some of the other Nicaraguan ligero-bombs out today.

I initially smoked one and didn't care for it at all. Took a chance and grabbed a few more, letting them sit in the humi for almost a year to see if they got any better. They haven't. I even tried different sizes! :r

Oh well. More V's for you mofos. :D

I haven't been overly impressed by the V's either. I think that the V lancero is the best out of the lot.

Enjoy them. They never changed my life. The lancero is very good - especially for the price. Had a Maduro V that was just spice after spice after spice, no balance, not even a good flavor.

We all have different tastes but count me in as a V lover, especially the figurado.

Love the V's, although I have only had a few of them. Got another in the humi. Might hace to smoke it this week.

:tpd: I haven't tried them all since I stay away from large RG but the lancero is the best of the lot.

I like them, they tend to be a very dependable good smoke when I drop by my local B&Ms.

I enjoy these alot, but I prefer he older ones to the newer release. Not sure if it's different but I do.

Ther first 3 or 4 I smoked just didn't do it for me. Seemed flavorless. Gave a bunch away then deciced to fire one up. It was awesome! Not sure if the stick changed over 9 months or my palate, but its definately one of my favorites now.

Funny, I originallly thought the same as you, but then I pulled out one that I've had for well over a year and it was really good. Now I wish I wouldnta given away 80% of the box. :ss
