The story of Oliva Cigars began in the late 1800s, when Melanio Oliva first cultivated cigar tobacco in Cuba. His heirs carried on the family tradition, but it was his grandson, Gilberto Oliva Sr., who transformed the family legacy by creating exceptional cigars. In the years that followed, Nicaraguan tobacco became integral to their survival and success, leading to the creation of the Oliva Serie V in 2006—a cigar that quickly garnered the admiration of connoisseurs worldwide.
The Oliva Serie V is known for its complexity, crafted from Nicaraguan long filler tobaccos, with an expertly fermented Jalapa Valley ligero and a high priming Sun Grown Wrapper. This carefully selected blend creates a powerful yet balanced smoke that embodies strength, depth, and style, making it an enduring favourite among aficionados.
In 2012, Oliva honoured the legacy of the family’s first tobacco grower with the introduction of the Oliva Serie V Melanio, which features an Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed wrapper. This variation distinguishes itself with refined, rich flavours and added depth, earning it the title of Cigar of the Year 2014 by Cigar Aficionado.
For those seeking a sophisticated and powerful smoke, the Oliva Serie V offers big, bold flavours framed by rich notes of leather, complemented by hints of coffee, caramel, and wood. This is a classic smoke that will satisfy even the most discerning cigar enthusiast.
