Flor De Oliva, why why why?

[7kingsguy]

So tonight I sparked up a flor de oliva churchill. All the way through it was a decent cheap but flavoursome smoke, but unfortunately it was ruined by the cigar being sweet tipped. Every one of these has had sugar coated on the wrapper. Such a shame as it completely ruined the flavour. Why Why Why???? I love the Oliva V G and O, why do this to the Flor de Oliva...

[Pandyboy]

Not had one but I quite like a bit of sweetness with my smokes. Stick to the O, V and G's

I normally stick to the fdo maduros i dont think they have any "coating" on them.

BTW where do you buy them from i didnt know they where available in england.

Yes doing a bit of research I have learned that the 'originals all have coatings, but the maduro, corojo and golds dont. I do not understand why... ruins the stick I think.

I like natural sweetness, but this is a sickly sweet taste that lingers in your mouth like a sugar pill.
