I am looking for a good, cheap everyday smoke. My regular smokes are 5 vegas cask, lot 23's, and Oliveros Eight Zero, but my stocks are running low, and I am not able to replenish them due to my poverty-ness. lol.

Are Flor de Oliva any good, are they comparable to my usual smokes? Any advice would be great! Thanks a ton.

I've smoked the Flor de Oliva Gold. It was a decent mild cigar with an even burn and great draw. I'd recommend chucking it when there's about 2 inches left, however. It runs extremely hot and got very bitter by the end.

Flor de Oliva is made with 100% All Long Nicaraguan Filler. They used to come in bundles of 25, now they are bundles of 20.



You can still find a bundle of 25 going for about $35.00!

one of the benchmarks in everyday sticks. I buy 'em by the bundle,

Gold for the Mild fans.

Natural for the Natty fans.

Maduro for the Maddie Fans.

Corojo for the Heavier fans.

Gigante for the....I'm not sure there...an 8 x 66 cigar scares me....:bigeyes:

I also used to smoke the La Floriditas for a bargain stick.
:ccool:

Back when they were a Costa Rican stick, I was killing them.

They are a great everyday stick as well.

I like the Maduro Red white and blue ones, definitely not a fan of the golds. You may also want to try the Perdomo Fresco.

i always used to smoke these when funds were low.

they arent very complex, but they arent bad for what you pay for em.

The Flor de Oliva maduro sticks come in two blends.One is very tasty and the other is just decent. Be sure to try one from the bundle before you buy it, if you can do so. The maduro Flor de Oliva is the best selling bargain stick at my local shop.
Another bargain stick I like is the Casa Garcia,the connecticut and maduro are very good for the price.
