The Oliva family is renowned for its cigar-making prowess. They have been in the business for many generations and cigar enthusiasts know that when they light up any of the fine Flor de Oliva products, they’re getting premium cigars.
The Oliva brand draws on the qualities of its own fine long fillers to provide a solid base for its amazing range of cigars, all hand rolled in its two factories in Nicaragua. This continuous oversight of the entire process ensures outstanding quality control. As a result, Oliva cigars are ranked among the best boutique offerings in the world.
The Flor de Oliva is among the best and most popular lines the company makes. The Dominican-grown tobacco leaves are fermented for an extended period of time, allowing the inherent flavors to mellow and deepen. This extra-long fermentation gives the Flor de Oliva an extra complexity of flavor treasured by aficionados. A succulent Nicaraguan-grown Sumatran wrapper is the perfect finishing touch.
Medium-bodied, Flor de Oliva Cigars start off spicy and woodsy, progressing to earth. Underlying these flavors is the subtle sweetness of the Sumatran wrapper. This sweetness comes to the forefront in the latter stages of the smoke, reminiscent of caramel.
You would expect a cigar of this caliber to cost much more. However, the Oliva family is as committed to value as it is to quality. They believe that everyone should be able to afford a fine cigar and this is why so many of their offerings are available by the bundle.
No matter what size you choose, you will be getting an amazing bargain. A 7.00 X 38 Panatela is about $2. Buy a 20-cigar bundle of the 8.00 X 52 Double Corona XLs and you’re still only going to be paying that same $2 per cigar.
