    In my opinion, I think you've hit on one of the best NC cigar wrappers out there - the Cameroon (not maduro, unfortunately).

    Give the Cuesta Rey Stanford's Cameroon Reserve a shot - you won't be disappointed, especially if you liked the Oliva Series G...

    And if you want to have a maduro that will blow your socks off, try the ISOM Cohiba Secretos or Magicos Maduros 5.

    I'm gonna agree wholeheartedly with George on the Cuesta Rey Stanford's Cammie. I was gifted one from a LEO from down south and was blown away. (thanks again!)

    Well now im confused. The quote that i gave was from the inside of the lid of a full box that i bought that was still wrapped in plastic, so i don't know how it could be wrong.

    However, I did visit the site and you are are correct. They are listed as Connecticut wrappers......they are being a little missleading in my opinion. I have incuded a pic of the box so that you can see for yourselves why I am confused.

    That is indeed very confusing. My only guess on that would be that you must have had the Maduro and maybe what was put on the inside of the box was a screw up by the Oliva Company. Either way though you had a great cigar as i enjoy both the Cammie and Maduro of that line. I suggest then, since I think the fault may be in printing error on the packaging, is that you go out and get yourself a Serie G Cameroon and smoke that as well. Be sure to post a review too as I am interested in how it compare to the Maduro in your opinion.

    Yeah, that's a mistake on the box.

    I just picked up another Serie G Cameroon today, and it had the same description, but didn't say Maduro Broadleaf on it lol.

    Unless its directed towards a freakin' smoker.

    I just had one of these and it is now one of my favorites. Can't say enough about it. One of the first cigars I have smoked down to the nub. Excellent smoke.

    I've yet to smoke an Oliva that I didn't like. I'm especially fond of the Special Gs, though all I've found so far are the Cameroons.
    I have made it a rule never to smoke more that one cigar at a time.
