Great review… I bought a box of Serie G Robustos during the winter. I love them. I find they start off a bit spicy and then that Cameroon sweetness kicks in. Everyone of them I have smoked to the nub so far.

Regarding the Nub Cameroons. Last time I was in the US, I picked up a couple of the Nub 464 Cameroons. I did not mind it but it really did not make the same impact as the Serie G did.

Way to go on the review. Happy 4th to my US-based friends from Canada!

Hey folks!

As always, thanks for the kind words. I appreciate you all taking the time.

Steve– we figured that would be the case for some folks, but college football is something we’re passionate about, and believe it or not, it’s why some folks tune in. We wanted to bring a little something for everybody, and who knows…the PorchCast might turn some former non-enthusiasts to the dark side

Thanks for listening, and bearing with us as we grow.

Great review again Nate. Smoking a Special G maduro right now. And yeah, they are always on my highly reccommended list.

As for the podcast, love it but maybe cut down the football talk a tad, a bit regionalcentric for me.

Nate, love the Floyd. Another great review buddy. I love your enthusiasm toward a ciger you are enjoying. I need to get my hands on a few of these. I love a Good, short smoke.
Thanks again. Keep em’ coming.

I like the Oliva Serie G alot, but I didn’t like it so much in the Special G size. It’s just too small for me, and was easy to heat up and make the flavors harsh. I also noticed it was a bit more peppery than usual.

Great Review, Nathan!

I am really starting to like the G series. I had a Special G a couple weeks ago, and while it was a litle grassy, the flavors were very enjoyable.

Thanks for the review!
