Default Re: Question on Oliva's

The cloth bands were discontinued 8 or 10 years ago, that might be why they're a little hard to find at your B&M.

Interesting, it makes me wonder if the ones I have been buying were aged, because they still had the cloth bands. It has been about a year since I've purchased one, and it still had a cloth band. I had to go back to my band collection to make sure what I was looking at.

Tell ya what, go back to that B&M and see if they have any more cloth bands. If they do, PM me and I'll happily make sure you get current stock.

Very nice if you can get them buy them up... The rest of the olives are great the Oliva V Tubo was outstanding... I am an Oliva whore so you can ask me as well!

Here's a pic of the blue silk bands. There's red silk bands, as well. I have one somewhere, but I don't have a pic...

You'd oughta buy every single one if there's any left. They are highly sought after, and should be really reasonable. Absolutely excellent smokes, too.
If you don't want them, I'll take them.
