Didn't care for them when I bought them. Held on to them until folks started looking for them and gave most away.


Did you want to try one Kombat? I may still have a couple left.

Actually, they are an Oliva, but they are not an Oliva. There are two completely different Oliva families. These cigars were made for (or by?) the Oliva family that grows tobacco, not the Oliva family that makes cigars.

The farming Olivas mainly grow and supply a HUGE amount of tobacco for many, many cigar manufacturers. The Angel 100 is the only cigar they have ever put out. It is to celebrate 100 years in the bidness or someones 100th B-Day, or something like that.

The cigar making Olivas are the ones most people are more familiar with. They are the ones that make the Serie O, Serie G, Serie V, etc. They have nothing to do with the Angel 100.

A few years ago, I bought lots of these. Used to get 5 packs for $12 - $15 , sometimes less. They were good enough that I just couldn't save 'em.

These were NOT made by Oliva. They were made by NATSA with tobaccos supplied by Oliva.

I still have a bunch of the 5 paks. Good smokes that have aged well.

As far as I know, the only cigar being made from 100% Oliva Grown Tobacco currently is The Latitude Zero. Very Tasty too.

very mild cigar IMO. real mild. You may not like em Kombat. I kindas know ur taste and not you. Not a lot of flavor. I remember pitching the last one I tried smoking about 4 or 5 years ago.

they definitely start out mild, but at the half way mark they start to evolve a bit more and definitely end with a nice kick... nothing spectacular but very enjoyable...
