Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro Torpedo

The Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro Torpedo is a luxurious, full-bodied cigar crafted for aficionados who appreciate depth and complexity. Measuring 6 1/2 inches (165 mm) with a 52 ring gauge, this torpedo is meticulously hand-rolled in Nicaragua using a dark, oily Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper over Oliva’s finest Nicaraguan binder and long-fillers. The torpedo shape enhances the draw and intensifies the cigar’s rich, evolving flavours, while the expert construction ensures a slow, even burn and a consistently satisfying experience.

Cigar Aficionado: 'Every puff is loaded with sweet wood, sea salt and dried fruit, but the tapered head of the Torpedo seems to concentrate the smoke for another dimension of flavour. ' 

Oliva is one of the most respected names in premium cigars, with its roots tracing back to 1886, when Melanio Oliva began growing tobacco in Pinar del Río, Cuba. The Oliva family endured decades of upheaval, relocating across several countries before finally establishing their operations in Nicaragua. Today, Oliva is renowned for its dedication to quality, producing cigars that consistently earn top ratings and awards worldwide. The Serie V Melanio line honours Melanio Oliva, the family patriarch, and is celebrated for its exceptional craftsmanship and rich, complex blends.
