Oliva V -- Not a fan.

I like the flavor profile of the V.. sadly out of the 4 or 5 I have had (Robusto, Torpedo, Lancero) I have had major draw issues on every one of them. 1 from the B&M (bought and smoked there) and the rest sitting in my humidors (65%) ...

I've given up on the V's.

The best thing to do with long skinny smokes like that is to dry box them a bit or have them humidified around 63% or so. Over humidified lanceros, like the ones from my B&M don't smoke well right out of their walk-ins because they are over humidified due to the nature of constant opening/closing of the doors.

That is just what I experienced.
