Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar

This Nicaraguan puro features a lovely medium brown sungrown habano wrapper with filler from three regions of Nicaragua (Estelí, Condega, and the Jalapa Valley). The smoke is medium-bodied with a fantastic mix of chocolate, roasted coffee, and cream. The burn is a touch uneven, but not enough to become a distraction, and the draw and ash are very good. Available for around $5 per stick, even less when purchased by the box, the Oliva Serie O is a great value.

Verdict = Buy.
