Oliva Serie V Melanio

The Oliva Serie V Melanio was introduced in 2012 as a tribute to Melanio Oliva, the family patriarch who began growing tobacco in Cuba in 1886. The blend uses an Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and filler, with carefully aged and fermented ligero leaf from Nicaragua's Jalapa Valley at the core. The Melanio is positioned as the premium expression within the Serie V family, offered in seven vitolas.
