OLIVA

The Oliva Cigar story began in the late 1800s, when Melanio Oliva started growing cigar tobacco in Cuba. His heirs carried on the family tradition in the fields, but it was his grandson Gilberto Oliva Sr. who began making cigars. 

Nicaraguan tobacco helped Oliva survive. The cigar that brought it to the attention of connoisseurs debuted in 2006: Oliva Serie V. Made by a small group of rollers and blended for strength and style, the Serie V line was an immediate hit. In 2012, to pay tribute to the first man in the family to grow cigar tobacco, Oliva added the Melanio version, which is distinguished from the original by its Sumatra-seed wrapper grown in Ecuador. The No. 1 Cigar of the Year 2014, Oliva Serie V Melanio Figuarado has rich, big notes of leather framed by a range of coffee, caramel and woody intonations. It’s a classic smoke.

SERIE V 

Serie V is a complex blend of Nicaraguan long filler tobaccos. Blended with specially fermented Jalapa Valley ligero, and finished with a high priming Sun Grown Wrapper. 

Tasting Notes

This flavourful blend exhibits complex tobacco with rich coffee and dark chocolate tones. A subtle and well balanced spice is present throughout.

Finally got round to smoking this! I’ve always said I love a lancero format. And with this high quality cigar it did not disappoint. As it’s long it was cool it was flavorful and it was nice the whole cigar lasted about an hour. I will definitely buy this again

I actually left the last review in August, but this cigar is so good I just had to review again. After smoking a few more of these since August (last one on my birthday this week), I have fallen in love with this Oliva V Lancero even more. I would say possibly my favourite cigar to date, and I have smoked over 100 brands / variations of cigars. This is right up there with Padron 1964 Aniversary and La Aroma De Cuba Mi Amore for the best dark coco notes, spice and salty earth. The only thing I would say is due to the thin ring gauge these are not suitable for outdoors unless there is zero wind. They also taste even better with a few months of ageing in the humidor. Amazing cigar!

I smoke a lot of robusto and churchill Oliva V , which I love. This Lancero had similar tasting notes but a bit more prominent, dark chocolate and coffee primarily. The main difference between the larger vitolas and this lancero would be the higher level of spice in the latter, a cajuon type spice. The spice is not over powering but is always there, especially at the first 1/3 and last 1/3. The middle 1/3 has very little spice and much more prominent dark chocolate and expresso tones. I enjoyed this very much paired with Johnnie Walker Blue. I will certainly buy more of these Oliva V lanceros going forward.

I am new to lanceros and am a convert. Notably the first 1/2 is fantastic. Cool beautiful rich smoke thanks to the length and relative thinness. This is medium - rich cigar but has no crass dark Nicaraguan unsubtlety ( which I sometimes like ). Rich and fragrant. Gets a tad bitter towards the end but the first part is outstanding so at this price I am very happy.
