Oliva Serie V Melanio Torpedo
Oliva Serie V Melanio Torpedo
Named in honor of Melanio Oliva, this torpedo showcases the blend that helped establish the Serie V Melanio as one of the most recognized cigars in Oliva’s portfolio. It is handcrafted in Nicaragua with an Ecuador Sumatra wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and fillers, delivering a rich, polished profile that balances depth with refinement.
The figurado format adds a more distinctive presentation than a standard parejo, while the blend itself is known for notes of cedar, coffee, earth, spice, and a touch of natural sweetness. At approximately 6 1/2 x 52, the Oliva Serie V Melanio Torpedo generally offers about 60 to 90 minutes of smoking time, depending on pace. Smokers who enjoy fuller flavor without an overly aggressive edge will find plenty to appreciate here.
This vitola also carries notable historical weight within the line, as the Melanio Figurado earned major industry recognition and helped elevate the series well beyond routine production status. That reputation is supported by the cigar’s combination of concentrated Nicaraguan character, elegant construction, and a format that remains one of the most sought-after expressions of the blend.
