Which Oliva would the Monte white be most like? Is there even a reasonable comparison?

I'd liken it to the Connie.  the Monte white always seemed to be a bit mild for my tastes.  the oliva has a bit more fullness to me.

Cool. That was what I suspected. I imagined that the Monte would be a little more bodied than a typical connie shade (whatever that is). I've also read that the Oliva is a little more towards the med side than the mild, for a connie. Some of the reviews on the usual vendors almost say it is a little too full for a connie. Based on feedback here and what I've read, I expect it will be just about right for me for a go-to. Can't wait 'till Tuesday!

I think the Monte White is more like the Serie O.

Conneticut, shade grown wrapper leaf.  they put tarps over the tobacco plants. (I originally misspelled
that as tarts - that was a picture!).

Would they then be considered infused?
