Oliveros, originally a Cuban brand, was resurrected in 1996 as a flavored cigar line in the United States. Rafael Nodal, Alina Nodal & Hank Bischoff took over under the name Habana Cuba Cigar Company with Milton Germosen remaining as the Master Blender. In 2002, they began to introduce traditional cigars into the Oliveros line, as well as continuing to advance the scope and quality of the flavored cigars. Made in the Dominican Republic, the Oliveros Classic was one of the first traditional cigars they offered and was well received for its flavor and value.
The Classic Sumatra starts with a spicy aroma and a subtle caramelized taste. It has a long, smooth finish without a hint of spice. It remains mellow and the burn and flavor profile are very consistent from start to finish, with a note of pepper adding some depth in the second half. The Oliveros Classic Sumatra is a must try for those looking for a easy, mellow smoke that is light on the wallet.
