"Smooth as silk"

I’m a noob and bought these based on excellent ratings. Super smooth and mild yet very flavorful. Paired very well with my Kentucky bourbon. I am buying more as well as recommending to friends!

"Good Cigar"

Good Mild Cigar.

"Was my favorite"

This has been my cigar for some time. Unfortunately something has happened . 5 of my last 20 had terrible uneven draw. Those were almost unsmokable.. I will probablt in the future order them again, in the hopes that this was a one time aberration.

"Great Cugar"

Great Cigar, mu husband smokes them and gives them out to friends

"Would have probably liked it but..."

Terrible draw. Unrecoverable with PerfecDraw. Seems like it would be nice if it had draw. Tunneled, canoed, lost a massive 2 section that turned to charcoal. Wrapper split. The small time of actual smoking made me think this could be sweet and delicious. But I have been working through an Oliva sampler pack same one this came from, the 2015 and I was shocked by how badly this one performed compared to most others... Other people seem to love this cigar though so take this review with a grain of salt. Probably just got a bad one, which is a bummer.

"Excellent cigar"

Very smooth cigar

"Consistent Excellence"

This is my go to mild - medium cigar. The reason is simple. Out of all the cigars in this category that I ve tried many , it has the most consistency in all areas; taste for me the best taste in a mild - medium profile , appearance, construction, burn and draw. There are others in this category that I like, such as the RP Vintage 1999, but the Oliva Connecticut Reserve tops them all as far as I m concerned.

"A+"

I love this cigar! Easily the best mild cigar I have had. It is smooth, creamy, nutty and I got the slightest hint of malt. Perfect construction. Excellent, smooth wrapper with nearly invisible seams. Draw is on the loose side and I like that alot. Burn was razor sharp all the way down and the second half has a fuller bodied taste. I would recommend a coffee drink of some kind paired with this or even a light bodied scotch. Both are great.

"Awful, No, Seriously, just terrible"

Got my 1st box, wish I had not. $102 lost. I have had El Producto s that were tastier. Embarrassing Oliva, produces this crap. Varies between bland and just hot without flavor. I smoke a lot of Oliva, never more disappointed I want to quit smoking after this turd.

"Delicious"

This is another cigar I bought based on the ratings here. You people have really helped me find some great cigars I would never have bought and this was one of them. I like a smooth, mild cigar, but I also want complexity and cabernet flavors: cedar, tar, pepper. This was all those things.
