Oliva Connecticut Reserve Robusto Cigar Review

This 5x50 stick features an oily firmly packed dark tan wrapper with minimal veins, tight invisible seams, large double cap and pungent hay aroma. First light reveals a plugged draw with minimal mild-medium smoke output showing a generic leafy smoky flavor on a short finish. The first third doesn't improve much with just the flavors changing to a fleeting blast of sweet nutty coffee. 25 minutes in at the 1/2 way point the burn is flawless but the draw still very snug. Flavors are the same now just with a slightly longer finish. Ending at 45 minutes the last third showed no changes.
