Did not like this smoke...we got different profiles out of it but to me it was a h uppman nc. It just tasted green too me
I've had this one for a while, but I could see it leaning on the "green" side, if you're talking vegetable flavors. I can imagine a slightly bitter green bell pepper from the Saison, but it was very mild and not distracting like I've had on some cigars. And this comes from the power of suggestion a little bit. To me it was overshadowed by the other flavors. I'm not going out of my way to smoke this again, but it was good enough to smoke. It was also bad enough to set down without remorse, except for any pocketbook expenditure.
I still have some from the original release and should see how they are coming along. I didn't care for them as much as the normal v line but who knows they might change my mind

Oliva should just hire me to pimp their stuff. I'd have to sign a non-compete because I do the same with Quesada. But I do like the No. 4. and the Melanio, whichever you're talking about.
That reminds me... I should get to my V #4s that I bought 2 years ago. I'll bet they're great now.
Yeah, the one I smoked that sparked this quickie review was pretty fresh. About a month off the truck. The rest of the box is now getting tucked away minus a couple for winter smoking.
Man oh man, I bought a whole box of these, smoked one, wasn't impressed and bombed out all but a couple. I am going to have to revisit this one. You sure made it sound good.

I thought it was quite good. Not much more than a "medium" smoke and smooth enough to feel milder than that even. Showed me I'd had some real dog rockets recently.
From my phone. I'll edit line breaks later when I have a real internet connection.
Okay, this has a very dry feel and a good earthy tobacco smell. It was firm to the touch and had the slightest of spice and twang on the cap and prelight draw.
This cigar screamed "Cameroon" with all its distinctiveness. While I really like these flavors, they didn't develop much from beginning to end. I didn't feel like I was discovering anything new from first puff to last. Good cigar but not great.
Draw was right but burn was a little uneven and fast. This stick might beg for slightly higher rh.
