Of interest, I was perusing this site just this morning and had read that exact same info re RH 70 - 78. I think most of the inmates here keep their various humi's (desk tops, cooliadors, vinotemps, etc) ruffly between 60 to 65 RH (mine falls exactly in that range).

I was at my local B&M yesterday and snagged an Oliva V Liga Especial Double Robusto ($7.49) and will let it rest for a couple of weeks prior to burning it.

Scott, thanks for the review. If you need some batteries for your camera, let us know:-):-)

I don't know why I didn't post pics. I must not have had my camera when we smoked these? :-)

I would love to have one of those.

I wonder if there'd be enough ring there to deliver any V taste?
The wrapper's pretty decent on the torp, but the V body is what pushes the blend over the top, in my opinion.
I'd sure like to try any other sizes Oliva comes out with, but I can't imagine them getting any better. The one I smoked yesterday was so good I could hardly believe it. :-)

Nice review!

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I really can't wait for the weather to warm up here! I hate the winters in MN because my smoking drops to ~1/week, and I have several good things to smoke, but never the time for sticks the size of these torps. I do LOVE them, though...no Volt, I don't need any more. :-)

Just the thought of a V maduro lancero makes my mouth water. I love the regular V lanceros already. Maduro lanceros? Just call me a whore now. :-)

Wow! Smoking one of these now and it is very tasty. I am not much of a Maduro fan at all but the Oliva V''s are one of my favorite NC smokes and figured I'd pick some of theses up....

Very tasty :-)

Boy oh Boy It was some goodness! :-):-):-) Had the Oliva V MADURO in the 40 degree, windy, rainy day. Chocolatty coffee, spicy sweet maduro.:-):-) what a great cigar. I sure am looking forward to these becoming available again. I have 8 left and am going to savor them slowly one by one.
