The Oliva Serie V Melanio is hand rolled using expertly fermented Ligero fillers, leaves known for their robust and rich flavor. Five years in the making, this special cigar is sure to exceed a premium cigar smoker’s highest expectations.
The Serie V is full-flavored yet smooth. The long filler tobaccos are a blend of Oliva Nicaraguan Habano that emphasizes tobacco from the Jalapa region, an area known for a more nuanced leaf than the Esteli or Condega regions. This carefully aged Jalapa blend produces a particularly flavored smoke.

Beautiful construction; clearly made by artisans. Nice, even burn with no touch-ups required. Medium bodied, with notes of graham cracker, vanilla bean, latte and earth.

if you want a great stick, grab the figurado. It’s a beautiful box pressed torpedo. Its a medium smoke, notes of baking spices and light leather. This stick really shines when paired with a low ABV bourbon or sour mash like Elmer T Lee, Weller 12, or Buffalo Trace. You can be adventurous and throw a Peerless at it too.
