About Oliva Cigars

The Oliva family has been growing tobacco since the 1880s when Melanio Oliva cultivated tobacco in Pinar del Rio, Cuba. After the Cuban Revolution, the family relocated their operations to Nicaragua, establishing farms in the Estelí and Jalapa valleys — two of the most prized tobacco-growing regions in the world.

Today, Oliva is one of Nicaragua's largest tobacco growers and cigar manufacturers. The family controls over 4,000 acres of farmland and operates one of the largest curing and aging facilities in the country. This scale, combined with five generations of expertise, allows Oliva to produce cigars of remarkable consistency.

The Serie V is the flagship — a full-bodied Nicaraguan puro featuring rare Jalapa Valley ligero tobaccos. The Serie V Melanio (named after the family patriarch) won #1 Cigar of the Year in 2014, using tobaccos aged an additional 3 years. The Serie O is the everyday workhorse — a medium-full Sun Grown cigar delivering excellent value. Connecticut Reserve offers a milder, creamy alternative. Master Blends 3 is the ultra-premium expression. The recently introduced Serie V Maduro wraps the Serie V core in a rich San Andres wrapper.
