Oliva's current single and box prices answer different buying questions. A Serie G Robusto single was $7.70 in our September 26 check; a Melanio Robusto box held ten cigars, while Serie V held twenty-four. Compare exact formats and quantities first, then use the twelve historical catalog ranks below for a broader shortlist.
Current Oliva singles and boxes
Neptune Cigar listed all five offers in stock on September 26, 2026. Prices below exclude tax and shipping. A unit price divides the full box cost by its quantity; buying one requires the single price. Check availability and the final delivered total before ordering.
| Current offer | Size | Single | Full box | Per cigar in box |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Serie G Robusto | 4.5 × 50 | $7.70 | 25 for $157.95 | $6.32 |
| Serie O Robusto | 5 × 50 | $8.55 | 20 for $150.00 | $7.50 |
| Connecticut Reserve Robusto | 5 × 50 | $9.15 | 20 for $153.95 | $7.70 |
| Serie V Double Robusto | 5 × 54 | $11.40 | 24 for $242.95 | $10.12 |
| Serie V Melanio Robusto | 5 × 52 | $13.65 | 10 for $120.95 | $12.10 |
Unit prices are rounded to cents; the full box amounts are the checked quotes. These cigars differ in size and blend, so the table compares purchase costs rather than testing which tastes better.
The ten-cigar Melanio box costs $122 less in total than the twenty-four-cigar Serie V box. Its cost per cigar is higher. If you only want to try the two formats, one single of each costs $25.05 before other charges.
Blend differences to check
Oliva's current range descriptions identify these distinctions. They help separate products with similar names; the ranked catalog below retains its own historical wrapper and strength fields.
| Line | Manufacturer description |
|---|---|
| Serie G | African Cameroon wrapper with Nicaraguan filler |
| Serie O | Habano puro using tobacco from Estelí, Condega and Jalapa |
| Serie V | Habano Sun Grown wrapper with Jalapa ligero in the blend |
| Connecticut Reserve | Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and filler |
Oliva describes Connecticut Reserve as medium-bodied; Neptune labels the Robusto Mild. Those are attributed descriptions rather than a shared strength measurement. Keep regular and Maduro versions separate when checking a seller's page; a similar line name does not make them interchangeable.
The 12 historical Oliva catalog picks, ranked
The September 21, 2026 snapshot contains 52 Oliva records with ratings and positive USD reference prices. Selection takes one per line first, fills the remaining place, then orders the twelve by rating and reference price. Two selected records therefore belong to Serie V Melanio.
Every price in this ranking, its chart and its picker is a historical per-cigar reference, not a current offer. Ratings describe the catalog; they do not establish what you will enjoy. The images are catalog size illustrations, not product photographs.
Historical reference prices of the 12 ranked Oliva cigars
The ranked 12 sit inside a 0.25-point rating band (4.55 to 4.80) while prices spread 5.5×. The best rating here, 4.80, belongs to the Oliva Serie V Melanio Figurado at $14.00 — 0.20 of a point above the cheapest, the Oliva Grand Cameroon Belicoso at $3.00, for $11.00 more in the snapshot. These scores do not predict personal preference.

1. Oliva Serie V Melanio Figurado
- Catalog rating: 4.8
- USD reference per cigar: $14.00
- Catalog line: Serie V Melanio
- Catalog strength: Full
- Catalog format: 6.5 inches × 52 ring, Figurado
- Catalog wrapper: Ecuador
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Figurado shares the highest catalog rating, 4.8, with the Melanio Toro. Its $14 historical reference is $1.75 lower. It is also the only selected record labelled Full. The current Melanio Robusto offer above is a different format and should not be substituted for this record.
2. Oliva Serie V Melanio Toro
- Catalog rating: 4.8
- USD reference per cigar: $15.75
- Catalog line: Serie V Melanio
- Catalog strength: Medium-Full
- Catalog format: 6 inches × 52 ring, Toro
- Catalog wrapper: Ecuador
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Toro is half an inch shorter than the Figurado, with the same 52 ring gauge and 4.8 score. Its catalog strength label is Medium-Full rather than Full. Those fields distinguish the records without treating the score tie as proof they will taste alike.
3. Oliva Serie V Belicoso
- Catalog rating: 4.75
- USD reference per cigar: $8.36
- Catalog line: Serie V
- Catalog strength: Medium-Full
- Catalog format: 5 inches × 54 ring, Belicoso
- Catalog wrapper: Nicaragua
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Serie V Belicoso is the highest-rated regular Serie V record here, at 4.75. Its historical $8.36 reference is separate from the current $11.40 Double Robusto single. Both carry a 54 ring in their respective listings, but the named shapes differ.
4. Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro Torpedo
- Catalog rating: 4.75
- USD reference per cigar: $16.63
- Catalog line: Serie V Melanio Maduro
- Catalog strength: Medium
- Catalog format: 6.5 inches × 52 ring, Torpedo
- Catalog wrapper: Mexico
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
This Melanio Maduro Torpedo has a Mexico wrapper field and a Medium catalog label. The $16.63 reference is the highest among the selected twelve. It belongs to a different line from the regular Melanio Robusto in the current table; compare the exact variant before ordering.
5. Oliva Serie O Churchill
- Catalog rating: 4.7
- USD reference per cigar: $6.20
- Catalog line: Serie O
- Catalog strength: Medium-Full
- Catalog format: 7 inches × 50 ring, Churchill
- Catalog wrapper: Nicaragua
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Serie O Churchill is seven inches long with a 50 ring and a 4.7 rating. Its historical reference is $6.20. The current offer table instead lists a five-inch Serie O Robusto; those are different sizes, so a direct price-change claim would be misleading.
6. Oliva Serie G Maduro Churchill
- Catalog rating: 4.65
- USD reference per cigar: $8.67
- Catalog line: Serie G Maduro
- Catalog strength: Medium-Full
- Catalog format: 7 inches × 50 ring, Churchill
- Catalog wrapper: Mexico
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Serie G Maduro Churchill shares the Serie O Churchill’s 7 × 50 dimensions, but its catalog wrapper field is Mexico. Its $8.67 reference and 4.65 rating describe this selected record. Keep it separate from the regular Serie G Robusto offer above.
7. Oliva Grand Cameroon Belicoso
- Catalog rating: 4.6
- USD reference per cigar: $3.00
- Catalog line: Grand Cameroon
- Catalog strength: Medium-Full
- Catalog format: 5 inches × 52 ring, Belicoso
- Catalog wrapper: Cameroon
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
Grand Cameroon has the lowest historical reference in the 52-record snapshot at $3. The catalog identifies a five-inch Belicoso with a Cameroon wrapper. No current $3 seller offer was verified for this guide, so use the record as a name to investigate rather than an available deal.
8. Oliva Master Blends 3 Liga Maestra Robusto
- Catalog rating: 4.6
- USD reference per cigar: $9.00
- Catalog line: Master Blends 3
- Catalog strength: Medium
- Catalog format: 5 inches × 50 ring, Robusto
- Catalog wrapper: U.S.A. Conn. Broadleaf
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
This Master Blends 3 Robusto has a U.S.A. Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper field, a Medium label and a $9 historical reference. Its five-inch, 50-ring format matches the dimensions of the Master Blends 2 Robusto below. The catalog treats the two as separate lines.
9. Oliva Serie V Maduro Especial Toro
- Catalog rating: 4.6
- USD reference per cigar: $9.00
- Catalog line: Serie V Maduro
- Catalog strength: Medium-Full
- Catalog format: 6 inches × 54 ring, Toro
- Catalog wrapper: Mexico
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Serie V Maduro Especial Toro has a six-inch body, 54 ring and Mexico wrapper field. Its $9 reference matches Master Blends 3, while the shape and strength labels differ. It is a separate Maduro record from both regular Serie V and Melanio Maduro.
10. Oliva Connecticut Reserve Churchill
- Catalog rating: 4.6
- USD reference per cigar: $11.68
- Catalog line: Connecticut Reserve
- Catalog strength: Mild-Medium
- Catalog format: 7 inches × 50 ring, Churchill
- Catalog wrapper: Ecuador
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Connecticut Reserve Churchill is the only Mild-Medium-labelled record in this selection. It is seven inches long at a historical $11.68 reference. The current five-inch Robusto and the manufacturer’s line description give other information; they do not revise this older catalog record.
11. Oliva Serie G Cameroon Robusto
- Catalog rating: 4.55
- USD reference per cigar: $3.15
- Catalog line: Serie G
- Catalog strength: Undisclosed
- Catalog format: 4.5 inches × 50 ring, Robusto
- Catalog wrapper: Cameroon
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Serie G Cameroon Robusto is the shortest selected record at 4.5 inches. Its historical reference is $3.15, while the current Serie G Robusto offer above is $7.70 for a single. The catalog leaves strength Undisclosed; do not replace that field with a retailer’s label.
12. Oliva Master Blends 2 Robusto
- Catalog rating: 4.55
- USD reference per cigar: $9.00
- Catalog line: Master Blends 2
- Catalog strength: Medium-Full
- Catalog format: 5 inches × 50 ring, Robusto
- Catalog wrapper: Ecuador
Catalog size illustration; not a product photograph.
The Master Blends 2 Robusto has a five-inch body, 50 ring and Ecuador wrapper field. It shares the $9 reference with Master Blends 3 but has a different catalog strength label. Confirm current production and availability with a seller before treating an older catalog entry as an order option.

Which Oliva cigar is the best?
The historical catalog gives two selected Melanio records its highest rating of 4.8: Figurado and Toro. That does not determine which cigar you will prefer. Use the current offer table to compare exact sizes and upfront costs, then consider a single before committing to a box.
What is the difference between Oliva Serie V and Melanio prices?
In the checked offers, Serie V Double Robusto costs $11.40 as a single or $242.95 for 24. Melanio Robusto costs $13.65 as a single or $120.95 for ten. The Melanio box has a lower total but a higher per-cigar cost. These are different formats, and the prices do not establish a quality ranking.
What is the cheapest Oliva cigar in this comparison?
Serie G Robusto has the lowest current single price among the five checked offers at $7.70. Its 25-count box is $157.95, about $6.32 per cigar. The historical catalog includes a $3 Grand Cameroon reference, but no current offer at that price was verified here. This comparison does not cover every seller or Oliva format.
Are Oliva boxes better value than singles?
The checked boxes cost less per cigar than their corresponding singles, but require the full pack payment. Quantity, storage and whether you want that many matter too. A discounted box you do not want is not a useful saving; compare the delivered total and try a single when uncertain.
