As one of the most popular infused premium cigars on the planet, and the strongest of the sticks in Oliva's "Nub Nuance" line, the Triple Roast is an exercise in cigar blending creativity. While we do not know what goes into Oliva's super-secrete proprietary infusion process, we do know that this cigar uses an authentic Indonesian wrapper to gain Sumatran status, and relies upon an all-Nicaraguan binder and filler mixture.

The result is the perfect middle ground between an infused cigar and a regular Sumatran smoke, with notes of vanilla bean, dark chocolate, espresso, and frothed milk. 

Tasting Notes

A beautiful oily cigar is amazingly constructed from beginning to end. With notes of coffee, toast, and cocoa this cigar pairs well with a morning cup of joe just as well as a stiff glass of whiskey.

From the renowned Oliva brand comes this gem. Named after its creator Gilberto Oliva, this medium-powered smoke is easily pair-able with a cup of coffee and provides plenty of sweet flavors. One could notice some buttered almonds, sweet cream, and cedar inside, along with a fair deal of oak and an underlying citrus peel touch.

The ever-affordable Oliva "Serie G" is a medium-bodied cigar with traditional Cuban characteristics. This stick has a delicious Cameroon wrapper out of Africa, and a core of matured Nicaraguan long fillers placed inside a Cuban-seed binder. The smoke has rich aromas of coffee, spice, cedar, and nuts that you will want to retrohale whenever possible.

Tasting Notes:

This cigar pays homage to the brand's patriarch Gilberto Oliva. With hearty notes of earth and spice throughout, this cigar is balanced beautifully to end with an elegant chocolatey finish. 

The Connecticut Reserve is a cigar of remarkable quality and flavor that combines the cedar and cream aromas you crave, with the build quality that you have come to expect from Oliva. That powdery, butterscotch-colored Connecticut shade wrapper creates a buttery, mild-medium cigar flavor profile that is equal parts citrus-forward and sugar-laden, with nary a sign of strength along the way,

With its impressive construction, near-perfect combustion, and free-flowing draw, this blend's reliance upon darker, heavily aged Cuban-seed Nicaraguan long-filler leaves makes this stick one of our top options for mild-to-medium cigar smokers. This is another one of those staples in the cigar world that only seems to have gotten better over the years.

This is a classic and traditional Oliva blend. The highly acclaimed O cigar series offers a great variety of robust flavors that are chewy and full, yet smooth from start to finish. A Nicaraguan puro that boasts a dark Habano-seed wrapper. 

With rich tobacco, cedar and coffee flavors, the complex smoke is complemented by a medium-bodied spiciness that makes it an excellent stick.

This 94 rated cigar is deserving of that title. It boasts notes of wood, pepper, coffee and buttery toast, and is slow and even burning down to the nub. Take the time to enjoy this cigar to the fullest.
