Oliva Serie V Melanio Edición Año 2024 Gran Toro Pack of 5 Cigars
It’s no secret that Oliva Serie V Melanio cigars stand as the pinnacle of the Oliva Cigar Company's accomplishments, their prestige solidified with their #1 ranking and 96 rating in Cigar Aficionado's 2014 list of Top 25 Cigars. The recent combined efforts of the Oliva and Vandermarliere families, with musical inspiration by Paul Montag birthed an exclusive Serie V Melanio variant, tailor-made as a limited edition. This great creation was revealed in July 2024, at the PCA trade show: The Oliva Serie V Melanio Edición Año 2024 Gran Toro. And with it, the release of a 45-minute piece of music by the French piano virtuoso Paul Montag.
As for the music, it came when Montag sat down at his piano and lit up an Oliva Serie V Melanio Gran Toro. A press release describes it as “a 45-minute burst of creative mania—unique musical notes guided by exclusive taste notes of a long-lasting, dazzling cigar.” To access the music, consumers simply scan a QR code inside the box. According to Montag, “Music goes to the very depth of a person’s soul, and cigars enable us to achieve a sense of plenitude through a form of introspection”. “It’s a unique experience that all aficionados will now be able to enjoy.”
The Gran Toro distinguishes itself with a 5 ½'' x 60 shape, setting it apart from its Melanio counterparts. This cigar maintains the Serie V Melanio's signature band, accentuated by a striking red band denoting the year of its debut. Each of these Gran Toros is a masterpiece, meticulously hand-rolled by an elite group of the world's most adept torcedores. The blend comprises aged ligero filler and binder tobaccos from Nicaragua, enveloped in a radiant Ecuadoran sun-grown wrapper. The outcome? A cigar that's robust yet extraordinarily refined, epitomizing Oliva Cigars' world-class blending prowess.
Once lit, this Gran Toro unveils its majesty: an immaculately rolled, lustrous dark brown stogie that delivers voluminous blue smoke with an easy draw. It tantalizes the palate with an initial burst of ligero spice, which soon gives way to undertones of coffee and dark chocolate. As it progresses, the spice intensifies, culminating in a rich, velvety finish adorned with notes of nutmeg and cocoa. It’s deeply powerful, yet incomparably smooth. These fine smokes are a “connoisseur's only” cigar, meant for experienced palates, and make a wonderful celebratory smoke and can be paired with anything from single-malt scotch to port wine, and everything in between.
The Oliva Serie V Melanio Edición Año 2024 Gran Toro underscores Oliva's philosophy: harmonizing tradition with innovation while honoring the essence of the craft - purity and purpose. They believe this limited edition will provide profound moments of pleasure to the staunchest fans of fine cigars. The Melanio line stands as a testament to Oliva's unwavering excellence in the realm of tobacco, a name that resonates deeply with connoisseurs. This release elevates the Melanio line to new heights and is considered a “must-try” for all Oliva fans.
