Frequently Asked Questions about Serie G
Serie G is medium-bodied and smooth rather than powerful. Expect cedar, toasted nuts and light coffee, with a gentle sweet spice on the finish that comes from its Cameroon wrapper. It suits smokers of medium-strength cigars who want flavor without heavy nicotine.
Both are medium-bodied Nicaraguan blends, but they are built differently. Serie G is classically wrapped in Cameroon, so it is softer, sweeter and woodier. Serie O is a Cuban-seed Nicaraguan puro: earthier and more peppery. If you like creamy and sweet, start with Serie G; if you prefer earth and pepper, try Serie O.
The Robusto (5 x 50) is the reference size and takes about an hour, which suits a first try. Serie G tends to burn a little fast, so a Churchill is the better choice for a longer smoke, with the Toro in between. Torpedo and Belicoso formats concentrate the flavor toward the head.
No. Serie G is made in Nicaragua by the Oliva family, who are of Cuban origin and grow Cuban-seed tobacco there. That is why it tastes “Cuban” to many smokers even though it is Nicaraguan. If you want the real thing, browse our Cuban cigars.
