Instead of your regularly scheduled Tower of Burn, this week Walt and I bring you a Herfin’ Heads-style dual video review of a cigar you may not have heard of yet: the Inferno by Oliva. The Inferno is a billed as a full-bodied blend that’s chock-full of “dark, savory ligero” while still carrying a surprisingly low price. The name and description had me wondering if we’ve found ourselves a budget price Cain F, wrapped in brimstone and playing it cool as a Famous Smoke Shop house blend. The only way to quench our burning curiosity was for Walt and I to smoke it at the same time on camera.
As with anything that involves either of us talking, it goes on for a bit. However, it’s also monstrously entertaining, and you’ll want to stay put for Jerry’s cameo, it’s funny as blazes. Here’s what happened:

Thanks for the great segment guys. I’m going to have to try this one out. The only Oliva I haven’t really liked is the Serie O natural. Allthough I’m usually leery of these retailer exclusives, I have liked some of the Famous lines.
Loved Jerry’s cameo. 😉
Great review guys…
Alot of times the manufacturers ask us not to disclose their name.
Great video guys love the Jerry Cameo. Keep up the good work.
Porn stache productions…I hate you fuckers. LOL
Nice job guys, you should do that more often,don’t you just love Jerry?+
At $3.34 shipped, if purchased by box, I think this is a no brainer. It’s always nice to find an affordable go-to you don’t feel guilty reaching for out of the humi. Thanks for the review guys
Wow, the elusive Walt and the camera-shy Brian in one video. It was hard to contain my joy. Glad you almost liked the Inferno.
