Default Re: Flor de Oliva (4 different wrappers)

I just smoked the natural (which is a Sumatra wrapper, not a Cameroon as I previously stated).

Begins woody and toasty with a slight bit of spice. Midway through not much change in the flavor except a little harshness now and then. Burning and drawing great, only construction complaint is the ash is a little flakey. No big deal. In the last third, the spice picked up but the harshness did as well. There were also some grassy flavors.

Overall a good cigar, not great but for a bundle cigar a very good deal. I liked it a little better than the maduro, so I give it a 7.7/10. Once again I would definitely like to buy a bundle and age them a bit. I'm sure they would turn out to be great smokes.

A good value for the money.
