    The V's are pretty damn good for me. I love the lancero, we've been selling them so fast they don't stay on the shelves at the cigar shop I work at. I've yet to try the other sizes, but the next shipment of lanceros we get, I'm in for a whole box. Plus it's a bargain at only $5.
    There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.

    Well, whenever that box comes in.....give me a shout, maybe we can work something out for a 5er trade. I've been buying 2-3 lanceros everytime I go to the b/m.....except yesterday, they were out!! I don't expect them to be replaced very soon. They did have other sizes though so I'm not gonna have to go totally without.

    I've had 3 different sized and loved 'em all. I bought a box of the Lanceros 3 weeks ago after having just one of 'em. I had a Toro sized one and found it good, and that big-ass perfecto and that was great.

    If you can't get your hands on any, LMK and we can do a trade. I'm going to New Joisey for a week in early March, so there'll be no jacking around with Customs if you're OK to wait that long.

    Sounds good.....I don't look for my B/M to be restocked anytime soon from what the tobacconist said. I'll be on vacatin from 22 Feb to 10 Mar....so it would have to be after that, but I'm game. Does that fit in with your trip?

    I am so in the minority here. Sounds like a popular choice, the V.

    Yep, it probably would, but from the sounds of it, baka might be able to hook you up sooner.

    Excellent cigar. Big fan of it. I wish someone around here sold them.

    Will do my man, we've ordered at least five boxes, lets see how many we get and then I will let you know.

    Like a guy could have "too many" cigars..., I'm not familiar with that concept, and from all the posts of yours I've read, I don't think you are either.....but I could be wrong.

    Oliva V torpedo is my new favorite cigar.

    I favor the torpedos & double robustos. Had a few lanceros that were on the weak side. I expect lanceros to be stronger, but that hasn't been the case for me and the V. Also, the double toro is a he-man stogie. Good, but alot of tobacco there. The one I had yesterday split about half way, but remained smokable with a few touch ups. Wasn't able to nub as it got sorta skanky at about 1 1/2". I'm giving $5 for double robustos and they are easily worth that to me. Can't wait to see the next Oliva. Saw somewhere they are calling it the Nub.

    Ya, there is a link over on Cigar Pass about it. It's not really an Oliva cigar, more of a Sam Leccia cigar. I think it's just rolled by Oliva. They are short and fat. Like 4"x60.
