bacon.jay:Does anybody know about when Oliva releases the newest batch? when was the release last year? i want a box of them and don't want to miss them.
j0z3r:From what I've read, the release was a one time deal. I guess because of the fermentation process they use and the aging required, it took quite some time to make the leaf they had, and they used it all up. I don't know if they plan to do another run sometime, but I'd hope so. 75,000 just isn't very many cigars to go around.

"oliva series V maduro 2008" (if i remember correctly) this leads me to believe that there are more on the way, maybe in a different size/shape. 2009...? why else would you have a date? the date woud distinguish between the releases/blends.
rwheelwright:I just ordered a box from Tim. They have them. Give Tim a call.

phobicsquirrel:I had one tonight I loved it, but it got really harsh after the midway part. I'm thinking it is because it needs some time to rest. I'd love to get a box though. I'm hoping they stay in stock till Friday, 'cause it's a keeper. Strangely enough I wasn't a big fan of the Regular V.
I may even be able to grant a FORUM discount as well.
email me and see what I can do. only 11 boxes left!!

rwheelwright:I'm almost tempted to get another box but I have 18 so I think I am in good shape for now.

rwheelwright:To be honest, I liked the V Maduro but liked the V better. Besides, with how much I have to smoke it will take me years to get through that 18. I haven't had a GoF from my original order since 2007. I did have one from my order last year when the Torpedos came out but I have 9 more of those. Same with the Partagas 150. I had one and maybe I'll have 1 this year and one every year until I am out. Ration baby.
