Just curious....this brand seems to be highly regarded here, but no one has started a review thread. I have been thinking of trying one of these. Anyone done a review on these from here that I am not seeing?

Which one would be the most mild that they make?? Still a newbie . I had a NUB last night, they are made by Oliva right??
Maddy: the Serie O is certainly not the mildest Oliva has to offer, that would probably be the Serie G, which is medium bodied itself. I think the O is considerably stronger.
I had the NUB Connecticut , I believe it was the 460. Was really good to me. I will be picking up more of those.
I picked up a couple V maduros and am being as patient as possible as not to try one...but I can't wait! Oliva's maduro leaf wrappers are just exquisite IMHO, I dig both the O and the G in the Maduro! It's no wonder to me why I'm so excited to try the V maduro.
It's hard to go wrong with any Oliva. Personally, I'm a big fan of the Serie G churchill, the Serie O perfecto, and the Special S diadema. The Serie V is good in the lancero, but I had a bad experience with the one robusto I've smoked. I wouldn't call any of these mild. The G is medium, the O and S are just north of there, and the V is farther north.
There's a special G...very petit perfecto....think Hemingway Short Story...but smaller
*shaking head*
I'm still drooling over the Serie V maduros I have...forcing yourself to not smoke a cigar is hard...torturous even
I'm trying not to look at them until the spring....but something inside me says, "Hey, you got a few...you can smoke one now!"
torturous is the word!
