Gilberto Oliva Reserva

Oliva Cigar Co. is a juggernaut that's one of the largest in Nicaragua yet remains boutique to its core and a darling of critics and cigar geeks. They have a plethora of 90+ ratings - 95, 96, and it's a fixture on the Cigar of The Year lists. The company as we know it was formed in 1995, but the family has been in the business dating all the way back to 1886, when Melanio Oliva started growing tobacco in Pinar del Rio, Cuba. Fast-forward to today, and they are found in almost every smoke shop, online retailer, and humidor you can find. A favorite of beginners and aficionados alike, no one can deny they are one of the best cigar manufactures on the planet.

A deliciously bold blend from the Oliva Factory. A Indonesian Sumatra wrapper masks a mellow blend of Nicaraguan long leaves and an Ecuadorian binder. Together, expect smooth yet hearty notes of earth and spice throughout. Medium.
