Oliva Connecticut Reserve Lonsdale
Oliva Connecticut Reserve Lonsdale
Oliva Connecticut Reserve Lonsdale presents the brand’s mellower side without sacrificing flavor. Rolled in Nicaragua, this slender 6 1/2 x 44 vitola uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and long-fillers, delivering the smooth, polished character that has made the line a popular choice among smokers who enjoy a Connecticut with more depth than the usual morning-profile blend.
The smoke is medium-bodied and notably refined, with a creamy texture supported by touches of sweetness, toasted almonds, and buttery richness. In Lonsdale form, the cigar offers a more traditional, narrow ring presentation that suits the blend well and generally smokes for about 50 to 75 minutes at an easy pace. It is a well-made option for anyone drawn to silky Connecticut wrappers but unwilling to give up the flavorful core that defines Oliva cigars.
