For those wanting a 6 x 60 version of the Oliva Serie V Melanio, you are going to have to wait just a bit longer. While 500 boxes are already available in Europe, Oliva won’t begin shipping the newest size until next month, slightly later than originally planned.
Pricing has been set at $14 per cigar, the most expensive consumers will have to pay for the Melanio in the U.S., although still half of what the cigar sells for in some European markets.
