I don't mind a bit of barnyard so long as it's not very pronounced and diminishes. I've had cigars where it dominated most of the smoke and I was not a fan. I actually had an Oliva V that tasted like this last night, which was pretty disappointing.

Pepin has asked Pete to blend cigars for his brand because he respects Pete's blends. Pete has all the right people around him to make his dreams reality and that is what being a good businessman is all about, surrounding yourself with the right people.
If anybody has not watched these videos, do so!
Thanks!

I just won two of each of La Riqueza, Ambos Mundos, and Cabaiguan from auction sites.

I had my first Oliva V the other day and It was a lot more mild in flavor than I was expecting, what flavor it had was pretty good but still kinda disappointing. I have another one still so maybe a different size will be better.

FWIW, I also smoked my last Lado Occidental 6 months ago (and OR ELO 1) and they weren't nearly as good as the eastie.
I picked up some of the second batch hoping they get as good as the OR was. Are you talking about the recent re-release or the OR?
Talking about the first release.

Thanks, I remember that smoke fondly, but it was also my last.
Here's to hoping the recent re-release ages as well!
