Description

OLIVA – Centuries of love for tobacco, cigars and life!!!

The Flor de Oliva Churchill is a wondrously assembled 7 x 50 cigar that is cloaked in a gorgeous Sumatra wrapper leaf. A bevy of Nicaraguan filler tobaccos are surrounded by a Nicaraguan binder leaf to complete the beautifully crafted cigar smoking pleasure cruise of about an hour and a half or so.

Once the Flor de Oliva Churchill is set to flame, notes of wood and earth ease onto the palate as bursts of pepper also appear. Hints of cream underscore the medium-bodied journey, while a gentle sweetness falls on the lips and ignites the taste-buds, making for a lasting and truly gratifying grand finale.

Each Oliva cigar contains a piece of rich history that goes back many years  to 1886 where Melanio Oliva cultivated tobacco in Pinar del Rio, Cuba. In the late 1950s, the grandson of the Gilberto Oliva family was forced to leave his homeland and go to Nicaragua. Gilberto’s insistence and constant search for the best tobacco led the 4th generation of the family to turn these quality tobacco into handmade premium-quality cigars.
Then they joined forces with the Belgian Vandermarliere family, founders of J. Cortes, who shared the same struggle for cigars, tradition and family. Since then, the two grandsons  of the families,
Fred and Jose, are in the “steering wheel” keeping their traditions and supporting each other on both sides of the Atlantic.
