Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro No. 4

The Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro No. 4 delivers the depth and richness of the acclaimed Serie V Melanio Maduro blend in a shorter, slimmer format.

Measuring 4½ inches with a 46 ring gauge, the No. 4 is classified as a Petit Corona, making it ideal for adult cigar smokers who want a premium, flavour-rich experience without committing to the longer smoking time of a Toro or Churchill.

The cigar features a dark Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper surrounding a core of Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos. Oliva describes the filler blend as Nicaraguan Sun Grown tobacco from the Jalapa region, while the Maduro wrapper comes from Mexico’s renowned San Andrés Valley.

The combination creates a rich Maduro profile with flavours that may include dark chocolate, cedar, baking spice, nougat, black pepper, earth, roasted nuts, and natural sweetness. Holt’s describes the Serie V Melanio Maduro as medium-to-full bodied, with chocolate, cedar, spice, nougat, and black pepper character.

Because of its compact dimensions, the No. 4 offers a concentrated interpretation of the Melanio Maduro blend and works particularly well for shorter evening sessions, coffee pairings, lounge visits, travel cigar cases, and personal humidor rotation.

Why Choose This Cigar?

The Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro No. 4 gives smokers the character of the Melanio Maduro line in one of its most compact formats.

Its 46 ring gauge creates a more focused wrapper-to-filler balance than larger Melanio sizes, allowing the Mexican San Andrés Maduro leaf to play a noticeable role in the smoking experience. The 4½-inch length also makes it practical when a full Toro or Churchill session is not convenient.

The San Andrés wrapper brings darker sweetness and chocolate character, while the Nicaraguan tobacco core contributes earth, cedar, spice, and strength. The result is a medium-to-full-bodied cigar with significantly more depth than a mild everyday smoke.

For customers who appreciate Maduro wrappers, Nicaraguan tobacco, and shorter premium formats, the No. 4 is a strong addition to a personal humidor.

Storage Guidance

Store the cigar in a properly maintained humidor to preserve its wrapper, construction, aroma, and flavour.

Keep it away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, dry air, and strong surrounding odours. If recently transported, allow the cigar to rest under stable humidor conditions before smoking.
