    Default Any Oliva Serie V Fans?

    I saw the Torpedo in this line got a 94 rating and the number 4 spot in CA's Top 25 of 2007 List. So naturally I just ordered a Belicioso off of Tampa Humidor to see what all the hype is about. Anybody got a take on this one?

    Not the torp, but a couple of others. The V did not do much for me. I found it one dimensional and boring for the price.

    I love the O's and MB's and smoke an occasional S.

    just got through smoking the Series V Torp. Pretty dang good cigar. Good price, too. I paid a little over $5. Can't go wrong with Oliva.

    The V is a very good cigar. I have found the Torbusto and DBL Curchill to be very tasty.

    I was fortunate enough to be gifted one during a Baltimore Herf. Great smoke! I liked it so much, I went and tried to buy some at the local B&M. All sold out in all my local B&Ms. Went out of town and noticed a B&M had 15 left of the Double Robustos. Took them all, and smoked one that evening. It was great!

    Although I'm usually skeptical about high reviews, the guys at CA were pretty spot on with the V Torpedo. Solid smoke. One of the smoothest full-bodied cigars that I've had. Price is great. Hope that this new popularity in Oliva won't hurt quality control.
