Oliva G toro tubo

Don Fernando · 01-25-2009, 03:54 AM

This Oliva G toro was resting in my humidor for over a year and I finally smoked it. It is a nice 6 inch ring 50 cigar with a pretty Cameroon wrapper. The wrapper is almost without veins. The cigar feels well constructed from Nicaraguan Habano filler, Cuban seed Habano binder and Cameroon wrapper. The aroma reminds me of hay.

I can taste full leather which becomes creamy after 2 inch, soft but spicy. Halfway the main flavor is a creamy chocolate with cedar and leather. When the creamy chocolate disappears the leather and cedar remain for the last part of the cigar.

This cigar is full flavored and medium bodied with some vitamin N. The smoke is full and thick and the ash is quite dark. The draw is a bit too easy though.

Would I buy this cigar again? Possibly, I liked this cigar

Thanks for the review. The G's are good smokes, but I like the old Grand Cameroon blend better. I shoulda stocked up on them.
