Oliva Serie G Double Robusto

Cigar Specifications
Tasting Review
The Oliva Serie G Double Robusto opens with a smooth medium-bodied profile, presenting an inviting combination of sweet cedar, toasted hazelnut, and light cocoa accented by a subtle floral undertone. Early retrohales deliver a gentle white pepper spice intertwined with hints of almond cream and dried apricot, adding brightness and nuance to the opening. As the cigar transitions into the second third, richer flavors of roasted coffee, caramel, and a touch of baking spice emerge, deepening the profile while maintaining its approachable character. In the final third, the blend evolves into espresso crema, bittersweet chocolate, and toasted oak, finishing clean with a lingering sweetness and soft nuttiness.

The burn line remains straight throughout, and the ash forms compact, pale-gray stacks that hold well between taps, reflecting the blend’s consistent craftsmanship.
Whisky Pairing Recommendation
A perfect whisky pairing for this cigar is the Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban 14 Year, whose port-cask richness, berry sweetness, and dark chocolate undertones beautifully echo the Serie G’s cocoa, nut, and cedar-driven core.
