On Tuesday, June 30, 2026, we had the pleasure of spending an unforgettable evening at SOHO St. Gallen together with Oliva Cigars. The two brand ambassadors, Jasper Vermeulen and Thomas Gryson, were on hand to provide guests with fascinating insights into the history, philosophy, and tradition of the renowned Oliva cigar brand.
In a pleasant atmosphere, we were able to enjoy a variety of cigars outdoors while treating ourselves to a delicious late-night snack. The opportunity to talk personally with the brand representatives made the evening a special experience for everyone in attendance.
A particular highlight of the evening was the interview with Jasper Vermeulen. During the interview, we had the opportunity to ask him numerous questions about the Oliva brand, its origins, and its development. His detailed and interesting answers provided fascinating background information and offered an in-depth look into the world of Oliva Cigars.

In addition to meeting new people, we were especially pleased to see so many familiar faces again. The personal interactions, the keen interest in our services, and the relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere made OFFA a real highlight for us.

With the Oliva Robusto Extra Edición Año 2025, the traditional Oliva company presents a strictly limited annual edition that combines craftsmanship, origin, and passion in a special vitola. This special edition is dedicated to the tobacco leaf and honors its journey from cultivation to finished cigar—a concept that appeals to connoisseurs and collectors alike.
The Robusto Extra format, with a ring gauge of 54, offers more volume than the classic Robusto and provides an intense yet balanced smoking experience. The cigar fits comfortably in the hand and develops a harmonious, steady increase in aroma over a smoking time of around 45 to 60 minutes.
A silky, oily Ecuador-Sumatra wrapper envelops carefully selected Nicaraguan fillers and gives the cigar its characteristic depth. Powerful roasted aromas unfold on the palate, accompanied by cedar wood, dark chocolate, and freshly roasted coffee. Spicy pepper notes and a delicate natural sweetness round off the flavor profile and ensure a balance between strength and elegance.
As an Edición Año 2025, this Robusto Extra is only available in limited quantities, underscoring its exclusive appeal. It is an excellent choice for special moments of enjoyment or as a valuable addition to a discerning collection. The Oliva Robusto Extra Edición Año 2025 stands for Nicaraguan quality, aromatic richness, and timeless cigar culture at the highest level.
