There's a lot of talk about Oliva's.
Not much talk about Series G.

Just smoked another Series G Camaroon box pressed.
Smoked one right away when I got the box.

I guess I started too soon.
Second one was heaven.

The ash held strong till 3/4 down.

Clean even burn, fantastic draw.
Flavour was fantastic.
I hated to throw it away, even when it was burning my fingers.

Box pressed has a nice feel to it.


I have seen the recent thread compairing G to some other cigar.

But come on now. For the price, Oliva is making some fantastic cigars.

There are several people in this forum that smoke these. Me being one of them. They are good.

what size was it? i havent had experience with the box pressed ones (i smoke the toro) but i love the flavor on these things

All of the series G that I've had have been box pressed. The torpedos and robustos. They are good cigars for the price. I am going to get some more. I also like the series O maduro and the V double robustos and toros. Torpedos are hard to come by around here.

I too am a big fan of the Oliva Cigars. My favorite are the serie V but since they hard to get I bought a box the G line belicosos a week or so ago. The g's are great.

My Robusto's are box pressed.

I think they just put too many cigars in the box.
And squished the lid closed.

I like the serie G! Good smokes.

I smoke the Serie G and Master Blends 3.

I personally hated the box pressed Serie G that I had, and I was excited about it. I think it might have been because it had a beetle in it, because I saw on fly out when I lit it. Either way it wasn't my taste.

I have a 5er of the box pressed belicosos and like them alot. But then again I like all Oliva's. But I do like the feel of box pressed.

I prefer the Oliva G's over the Fuente Hemingway & Don Carlos.

I have been smoking the G's ever since they were called Oliva Grand Cameroon.

I love the G series.

i am not a big fan of cameroon wrappers, but the series g toro was very nice. the series g maduro robusto was very good too. i have not smoked a series o maduro yet. is there a difference between the g maduro and o maduro?

I would say these aren't just good ciagrs for the price, they're good cigars Period! I smoke a lot more CC's than NC's, but when I do reach for an NC, a lot of the time it's an Oliva G (the natural belicoso is my favourite).

The Oliva G Robusto is my everyday go-to smoke. It's a great smoke, and you just can't beat it for the price. Heck, I'd rather have a Special G than an AFH Short Story most of the time.

I always have some of these in my humi. i'll usually grab a few torpedos (Naturals) of the Series G whenever i go to my local Stoge shop. Takes about an 1-1/2 inches or so into the cigar before it to opens up. like most Olivas i have been smoking as of late, this stick is another great bargain. Could perhaps be a higher priced cigar for the value and pleasure it brings.

Series G Rocks!!!!

I was at an Oliva event yesterday and the G robusto was one of the tops. I always liked Oliva's line of cigars and the G has surpassed the H.Upmann vintage Cameroon as my fav Cameroon.
It does seem to be the most flavorfull Cameroon wrapped cigar lately.
Good call Fazzuki.

I love the oliva G as well, my local B & M is having an Oliva event tomorrow, been looking forward to the event for a while.
