Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro No. 4
Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro No. 4
Oliva expanded the Melanio line with a Maduro interpretation that takes the brand’s most celebrated series in a darker, earthier direction. Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro No. 4 is a compact box-pressed Nicaraguan cigar made at Tabacalera Oliva de Nicaragua, using Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos beneath a Mexican San Andres wrapper. That combination gives the blend a denser, more savory profile than the original Melanio while keeping the polished construction and balance that made the line so widely regarded.
In this 5 x 43 No. 4 format, the cigar delivers concentrated notes of espresso, cocoa, earth, pepper, and a measured sweetness that can suggest toast or dark caramel. The body lands in the medium to full range, with enough richness for experienced smokers without becoming harsh or overly weighty. Expect roughly 35 to 50 minutes of smoking time, depending on pace.
