HISTORY
Melanio Oliva first grew tobacco in Pinar del Rio, Cuba, in 1886, and Oliva Cigars remain one of the most influential cigar makers in Nicaragua. Their award-winning excellent cigars have featured in Cigar Aficionado and Cigar Journal Cigars of the Year, year after year, reaching the peak of No. 1 Cigar of the Year in 2014 with the Oliva Serie V Melanio Figurado. In the same year, Oliva was the first New World Cigar maker to be awarded the prestigious UK Cigar Producer of the Year at a special award ceremony in London and in 2021, Serie V Melanio Figurado was named UK Cigar of the Year.
Across their ranges of the smooth Flor de Oliva blend, mild and smooth Serie O, the dark sweetness of Serie G and the beautiful oily Sun Grown wrapper on the full-bodied and complex Serie V, there is a cigar across all flavour profiles and budgets for every connoisseur to enjoy.
SERIE O
Serie O is a Nicaraguan Puro. Made in the original Cuban tradition of growing the same Habano seed in diverse regions of the country to produce a distinct blend.
This blend was achieved by growing Habano in Estelí, Condega and Jalapa Valley.
A sweet and spicy smoke layered with notes of chocolate, cedar and a hint of caramel.
