Shout out Holts COTM club! This cigar was in the September line up. I had never had it and would have probably never picked it up but now, thanks to Holts, it’s one of my favorites! Side note: Mazz loves the color orange and Faccia loves purple. 😂
The lighting of the cigars, at the beginning of each video, makes one's mouth water. I am a longtime Oliva fan (the V, G, O, V Melanio, G and my personal favorite for many years, the MB3!! Great cigars at a great price point. The Monticello is a fine cigar but, for my taste's, the Master Blends III is my go to, but then I love the fullest bodied smokes. Also, Holt's has a great sale on different vitolas of the Monticello and the Master Blends III every month so I can always get a good deal on those smokes.
You can't go wrong with Oliva cigars, they are my favorite cigars to smoke. There is a lot in the Oliva cigar portfolio that i haven't smoked. It is on my bucket list to try as many as i can before i kick the bucket.
I'm still new to cigars, I've had 4 in total. But I tried the v cut first, and I didn't like it that much, then I saw the rose cut. I tried that quickly and realized I would like the straight cut a lot better.
This is a harder to find stick no matter the shape. Even in Scottsdale Az. One of the largest markets in the west coast. Forget about finding it in California. Las Vegas at the higher end lounges may have a limited supply.
Mazz mentioned " unadulterated black coffee " . Good strong coffee , good full flavor cigars . For me these things go hand in hand . Oliva M's and V's are great choices . Great video guys .
It's a collaboration cigar only made for Holts. This is sorta self advertisement but they follow the youtube rules of not telling you where to buy it (which is only from them)
My go to Oliva!! I'm on my 3rd box of Torpedo's from Holt's over the past few years. And always a v-cut....... Sorry Facc Come on down to the Ville and we'll hit the track!!
Smoking a Perdomo Sungro 12 year anniversary sipping on some delicious seven horses tequila while enjoying your video. Since I had to go back to work, I don’t get to smoke nearly as many a day, but I’m enjoying it when I can. It truly is a stress reliever.
One of these was in my first COTM club box from y'all. I remember seeing it and thinking, "Oh this must be a variation of the Melania." Now that I've had both, I know better. But I did fall in love with the Monticello over the Melania. That driving cinnamon note with the coffee? Top notch. I often drink cinnamon in my coffee and that cigar is the perfect match for a morning cup.
Those look fantastic. I am a big fan of all of the Oliva blends that I've tried so far, so I hope that I can get my hands on those here in Sweden. Enjoy!
Y'all look amazing today. Like the Rose Of Sharon. Ever since Y'all showed us a sneak peak of Carlito Fuente in the Studio I can't sleep. I'm up on my feet asking myself everyday if today is finally the day.
I just got a box of the Monticello torpedos from Holts. Had to smoke one as soon as i got it. AWESOME cigar, very tasty, love the hit of cinnamon. It went very well with my favorite brandy. Had another with some cognac. Every bit as good with that too. Now i need to order another box probably gordo. Fantastic smoke
Hey guys I’ve been watching your videos for quite sometime now and I must say I love your videos but one thing I never see you guys do is pair cigars with beer. I’m not a hard alcohol drinker, if I do it’s mixed like either in a margarita or vodka soda. I would love to see you pair some cigars with beer in the future and I don’t mean that select hard to find local craft beer no one can find but only in a specific region but something we all can find in our local stores across the country. Keep up the good work men!
I'd love to see a video where you guys review some of these cigar&bourbon company collaborative cigars. Like the Pappy or BuffaloTrace cigars. Always wonder if there good or just marketing hype
A whole lot of “that’s what she said” jokes in here haha 😂 real question are y’all hiring and can I sleep on the couch in the lounge until I find a place? Haha I love these videos and Holts. I learn a lot, laugh a lot, and always want to go spend on these cigars (thankful for a wife who reminds me of our budget haha)
Do you guys ever just take a tobacco leaf and put it in your mouth and chew it for a while, when i lived in Cuba i grew up in a tobacco farm and I remember my grandpa either be smoking a nice cigar or chewing the tobacco leafs
"better" is subjective because taste is personal. It may be better in one smoker's opinion and worse in another's. Best way to know for sure is try it for yourself!

I just picked up the Oliva Sampler box off your website last week, and it just arrived yesterday! I can’t wait to try them out, Cheers Gentlemen 🥃
Thank you for the support, enjoy!
Picked up these cigars last Christmas. Bout time y’all did a review
I've copped two 6x60 boxes from you guys in the last year, LOVE these!!
Thank you for the support Justin 🙏
Had this with a port last week. Solid combo. Also had with Eagle Rare. Easy to pair.
Excellent cigar and one of my Oliva favorites.
Going to my first cigar lounge this weekend. Corona Cigar in Orlando! I want to smoke the Mi Amor or Olivia Melanio
I have never had the latter. But the former will not disappoint. 👍🏽
Hope you enjoy, have a great time!
Love my first melanio!! Mi amor is next!!
Hard to find these in Europe 😑
Indeed.. they look wonderful
Feel the pain…

Definitely on my list to try.

The trick with the Cognac is to rest the snifter on a cup of hot water. Worth a try. Great video gents! Thank you

Just picked up a box of churchills from your website the other day, one of my favorite cigars
Thank you for the support, hope you enjoy 👊
Thankful a video was finally made on this specific Oliva. Hardly any info out there before this video came along.
@@angelalveras101 as a huge oliva fan I have never even heard of this one!!
It's a collaboration cigar only made for Holts. This is sorta self advertisement but they follow the youtube rules of not telling you where to buy it (which is only from them)
@ good info to know
These are fantastic. Consistent in rolling, burning, flavour.
Outfits are always fresh!
Friday night steak and potato’s
Now dark chocolate , red wine and my Davidoff robusto intenso while watching this gem of a video
Happy weekend guys!
Same to you, cheers!
Good morning fellas from the great state of Mississippi. Love yal products!
The V series is one of my favorites, Guess ill have find the Monti at my local shop.
Great video guys!
Oliva nocturnal sampler has a good selection for the price on holts cigar. Definitely worth it
Love the color coordination fellas
One of the best cigars on the market
Love Oliva products. This is an awesome blend. I agree with Mazz and prefer V cut with all shaped Vitola. The Torcedor on Figurados are the best.
💯💯
My go to Oliva!! I'm on my 3rd box of Torpedo's from Holt's over the past few years. And always a v-cut....... Sorry Facc Come on down to the Ville and we'll hit the track!!
I’ve been waiting for this one I got a box of the robusto size at an absolute steal from you guys not to long ago fantastic smoke
Smoking a Perdomo Sungro 12 year anniversary sipping on some delicious seven horses tequila while enjoying your video. Since I had to go back to work, I don’t get to smoke nearly as many a day, but I’m enjoying it when I can. It truly is a stress reliever.
Siete leguas is one my favorite tequilas, cheers
Bache Gabrielsen Hors d’Age. Try it. Fantastic. It’s a grand champagne cognac. Reasonably priced for the blended 30-50 year old cognac!
We just might! Thank you for the suggestion 👊
Another great video gents!
Still have mine ready to try from the month club.. thanks Holts! 🙏🏼🔥
Y’all got the best cigar b roll I’ve seen lol, I’m jealous, great video!
Thanks Angelo!
You guys do a great job at presenting cigars to us. Being sharply dressed essential IMO.
🙏

sounds like an amazing pairing 🤤
Maybe your favorite morning cigars next? I would love to know what Facc smokes in the morning since he likes stronger stuff (like me).
Box sale prices are crazy on these, can't wait to try them
Those look fantastic. I am a big fan of all of the Oliva blends that I've tried so far, so I hope that I can get my hands on those here in Sweden.

Glad you enjoyed Rick, thank you for the support!
I do like this Smoke
Please do a video paring Zacapa Rum, as this is where my wife is from and her/my family as put me on to this BEAUTIFUL sprit.
i think the fellas had a little buzz simmering prior to taping. 😁 Love your shows. Cheers!
I love these vids
Has anyone smoked both the Oliva Monticello and the Oliva Black Swan? I'm curious how they compare.
I straight cut shaped cigars too
Great Cigar

I taste the whiskey first before lighting the cigar it opens the pallet up and all th cigar flavors hit quickly.
I usually use a double v cut
Can you do a video on the top 7 cinnamon forward cigars
Sure can 😉 In the meantime some suggestions to hold you over would be Ashton Symmetry and Plasencia Alma del Campo
2nd view!! Love these fellas.
I just stopped the video to order a box.
Thank you for your support David! Hope you enjoy it as much as us
#1,blantons is NOT hard to find. Sometimes hard to find at a decent price tho. Now the Oliva m is new to mm blantons however is a regular pour for me
Anthony's favorite color is either blue (navy) or grey. I think it's blue!
@@mikek2876 I believe he says it’s orange in a prior video.
@Boushhhhh damnnn. Super off on my end
I live 5min from the distillery it’s like tap water here
😳
Ok it worked, not hard to find on your website so I HAD to try a box🙄, but what the hell, it’s hard to go wrong with Oliva!
👊
Apparently these cigars are made exclusively for Holt's?! I asked for one out here on Long Island, that is what I was told.
I will order some also wanted to ask is the prices on the website the prices normally? It’s cheaper by the box of 20 then the 5 pack
On sale 👀
LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
Licorice
Do you guys ever just take a tobacco leaf and put it in your mouth and chew it for a while, when i lived in Cuba i grew up in a tobacco farm and I remember my grandpa either be smoking a nice cigar or chewing the tobacco leafs
we need a mint julep cigar pairing vid now😂
How do these compare to their V Melanio ?
Should of paired it with pappy or some e t lee
As a long time bourbon guy, Blantons is not bad, but it’s far from as good as the hype. I currently have 3 bottles, I’m trying to get all the letters.
Every time I have done a v cut it has ruined the experience. I think there is a reason the blenders don’t use that cut as well.
I get a strong licorice on the cold draw
Nice! You've got a good palate 👏
You guys need more Blantons? I can hook you up 😃
Do you guys have these in stock at your Townsend Rd store?
Pretty much always 😉
Do you only smoke to the band, or do you remove them and continue smoking?
In most cases you remove the band and continue smoking, unless you don't want to finish the cigar
Bro what's the music at the start?
The best part of Blantons was finding it. Maybe if it wasn't being hyped so much.
PUMPED 😎
I think Green is Mazz's favorite color.
@@aaronroth6309 I believe he says it’s orange in a prior video. However, I can’t find the video to reference so I could be mistaken.
@Boushhhhh it might be.
I was taking a random shot with just videos I could remember in my head. Thanks for sharing.
🤔👀
Found them to full. Unless they are on sale I won't pay for a box.
Is this a “better” cigar than the melanio?
"better" is subjective because taste is personal. It may be better in one smoker's opinion and worse in another's. Best way to know for sure is try it for yourself!
omg these two 😂
@17:32 I hope all bad things come to an end too.....
Mazz and Fred Minnick ( the bourbon guy) should team up with a video
Why aren't you guys using matches to light these beauties?
Torpedo = Straight Cut ❤
Mazz and Faux?
If you haven’t subscribed please do!! Need to get them over 200k
🙏🙏
Finishing the video. Did anyone else notice mazz called him a "big racist"? Lmfaoooo
Dang, guys! Stop making me want to buy cigars!
sorry 😂
Cut it however you want. Light it however you want. This isn’t rocket science.
My 47 years of cigar smoking says you nailed it!
I can’t find them in the uk, any ideas?
