From the website of Oliva: “The Oliva Serie V Melanio is hand rolled using expertly fermented ligero fillers, leaves known for their robust and rich flavor. Five years in the making, this special cigar is sure to exceed a premium cigar smoker’s highest expectations.
Blending Notes: The Serie V is full flavored yet smooth. The long filler tobaccos are a blend of Oliva Nicaraguan Habano that emphasizes tobacco from the Jalapa region, an area known for a more nuanced leaf than the Esteli or Condega regions. This carefully aged Jalapa blend produces a particularly flavored smoke.”

4.5 stars, Bought this one at a smoke shop for 20 – 25 dollars. The draw was tight but got looser the more I smoked. Taste is full. Not my favorite I like medium cigars better but the quality was there with this cigar.
