About Oliva Cigars
Melanio Oliva cultivated his first tobacco crop in Pinar Del Rio, Cuba in 1886. His growing operations were suspended while he fought in the Cuban War of Independence. After returning from the war, Melanio resumed his tobacco growing operations. In the early l920’s Melanio’s son Facundo Oliva took over the growing operations. Facundo cultivated the Oliva family tobacco fields for several decades. As Cuba became overrun by the Communists, the tobacco landscape changed. Facundo’s son Gilberto Oliva shifted from growing, to brokering tobacco. In the early 60’s the pressure became too great and Gilberto traveled from country to country in search of the conditions to recreate that distinctive Cuban taste.

Enjoy it but don’t like the box press format.

One of my favorite cigars. I’m a newbie to cigars but I really like the smoothness and the finish on it. Easily approachable.

This cigar is silky smooth with no aftertaste. It allows you to truly enjoy the smoke with a slow burn but wonderful flavour. I would recommend this cigar without a second thought.
