• Oliva Serie V Belicoso Tasting Notes
  Expect a dynamic flavor progression that starts with a “powerhouse” punch and settles into a complex, savory profile.
  • First Third: Dominant notes of intense earth, black pepper, and toasted cedar.
  • Second Third: The profile shifts toward rich dark chocolate, creamy espresso, and a hint of leather.
  • Final Third: A long, warm finish featuring sweet molasses, nutty undertones, and a lingering spice that never becomes harsh.                                                                                                             
    Why Choose the Oliva Serie V Belicoso Vitola?
    Unlike standard parejos, the tapered head of the Belicoso allows the smoker to control the draw and concentrate the flavor on specific points of the palate. This shape is particularly effective at showcasing the intensity of the Jalapa Valley ligero fillers.

         FACTS ABOUT Oliva Serie V Belicoso

• Consistent appearances in Top 25 lists since its debut in 2007.                                                  Enveloped in a shimmering, oily Ecuadorian Sun Grown Habano wrapper, the Cigars presents a stunning aesthetic with minimal veins and a rich, reddish-brown hue. From the first light, you are greeted with a “powerhouse” profile that evolves beautifully. The initial notes of intense earth and cracked black pepper soon give way to a sophisticated mid-section defined by rich dark chocolate, creamy espresso, and toasted cedar. As you reach the final third, the flavor deepens into a long, savory finish of sweet molasses and leather .
