Are the El Cobres from Cigar Factory Outlet in CT the same blend? Also, they carry a cigar called the CFO by Oliva which I assume is a store blend. I would be considering the maduros. What would that compare to in the Oliva line? Any answers appreciated.

as far as I know, the El Cobre is a private blend that was made for and smoked by the old man Oliva. It is exclusively sold by the shop of their international sales rep and in a couple of shops in The Netherlands (3 that I know of). Ian, can you confirm this?

I reviewed 3 vitola's on my blog www.cigarguide.org
