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. 

As with so many cigar stories, Gilberto Oliva Sr. faced a difficult road. He left his native Cuba in 1964, and eventually started working for the Plasencia family in Honduras. In 1995 he and his son Gilberto Jr. created a cigar within Plasencia’s factory called Gilberto Oliva. A year later, they set out to open a factory of their own, and shortened their brand name to Oliva.

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.

OLIVA ORCHANT SELECCION 

This cigar is the result of collaboration between Mitchell Orchant, Tor Imports and Oliva to produce a uniquely blended Oliva cigar tailored to meet Mitchell’s high standards and the UK cigar smokers palate; all at affordable prices!

Mitchell underwent a rigorous sampling exercise in the summer of 2014 to carefully select the blend and create a stylish design using the award winning Serie V Melanio as his inspiration.

Tasting Notes

This cigar is a super creamy smoke, offering a silky array of aromas which fill the room. You will be introduced to spice as you begin this smoke which is complimented with cedar wood and a subtle pepper tone. This does mellow by the half way point and continues to be a creamy and delicious earthy and woody finale.

Wow wow wow!!! If you like spice this is THE cigar to smoke. Absolutely fantastic. Loads of smoke, burns evenly and tastes sensational. Honestly wasnt expecting this from a small cigar. Immediately ordering the trio pack. Made my week. Do they do this in a super toro???

Nice cold draw. Smoked with a punch cut. Lit well and good volume of smoke. Good burn throughout. Held the ash well. Slight tingle on the lips, but very spicy on the draw, almost a Tabasco taste. Earthy and leathery taste, quite pleasant. Will buy again.

I didn't know what to expect with this cigar but I was pleasantly surprised. It is a fantastic cigar! It draws perfectly, burns evenly and creates loads of creamy smoke. For me this cigar tastes better than Davidoff petit coronas, much smoother, fuller, sweet and aromatic tones. This is now probably my favourite small cigar. Anyone who wants to smoke something in 40 mins and get a significant amount delicious flavour, this is the cigar for you. I will certainly be buying more of these.

Smoked my first one of these and boy did I enjoy it. Had a dram of 10 year old speyside with and they complimented each other perfectly. Such a lovely smoke with a nice sweet finish. Can’t believe how good this was for the money. I’ll be back !
