Oliva Serie V Melanio Gran Reserva Limitada World Cup 2026 Edition (Soccer Ball Inspired Humidor!)
Celebrate the world’s biggest stage with a release that plays at championship level. The Oliva Serie V Melanio Gran Reserva Limitada World Cup 2026 Edition is more than a cigar set, it’s a collector’s centerpiece built for true aficionados and fans of the “O Jogo Bonito” alike. Housed inside a striking, polyhedron humidor designed to resemble a soccer ball, this limited-edition release delivers both visual impact and real functionality, doubling as a fully usable humidor for your cigar collection.
Inside, you’ll find 24 expertly crafted Double Toro cigars (6” x 60), evenly split between the two iconic Serie V Melanio blends, the crowning achievement of the Oliva Cigar Company.
The Oliva Serie V Melanio series has accumulated numerous 90+ ratings from Cigar Aficionado, highlighted by the Melanio blend, honored as the #1 Cigar of the Year for 2014 with a remarkable 96 rating. Both built on richly aged Nicaraguan tobaccos. The Melanio showcases a smooth Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper that reveals waves of earthy richness and layers of bittersweet chocolate, while the Melanio Maduro is cloaked in a darker, more robust leaf, offering a deeper, richer interpretation of the blend. Extended post-roll aging for this release elevates complexity and smoothness, allowing the flavors of both blends to fully develop into a refined, nuanced profile. The cigars are each finished with a special commemorative secondary band exclusive to this release.
Produced in strictly limited quantities, only 5,000 humidors were made worldwide - 4,250 allocated to the U.S. and just 750 for the rest of the world, making this release as rare as it is impressive.
As Fred Vandermarliere, owner of Oliva Cigar Co., puts it, “Everybody sees the goals, everybody hears the cheers, but the true power of legends lies in the way they took the gift of nature and turned it into a craft. True craftsmanship goes beyond the spotlight, it's about transforming nature into something lasting”. That philosophy is fully realized here, in what he describes as one of the most beautiful cigar keepsakes ever created.
This is more than a themed release, it’s a statement piece. Two of Oliva’s most celebrated profiles, one unforgettable presentation, and a humidor that earns its place long after the final cigar is gone.
