与雪茄搭配的项目或活动有很多，比如特别的精神享受或者一顿美食，但是有没有一款雪茄自带它的专属配乐呢？Olivia Cigar Co.与法国音乐家、古典钢琴家Paul Montag合作，将他的音乐与限量版Oliva Serie V Melanio雪茄进行“二重奏”。消费者通过扫描雪茄盒内侧的二维码，可以听到Montag弹奏钢琴45分钟的录音，这段音乐灵感来源于雪茄吸烟，消费者在点燃自己的雪茄时就能听到。
蒙哥马利创作的那首曲子是即兴演奏的，名为《不要吸烟，要享受》。
这一切始于2023年12月，当时蒙哥马利坐在他的钢琴前点燃了一支Olivia Serie V Melanio香烟边弹边吸。不久之后，蒙哥马利与Vandermarliere Cigar Family的首席执行官弗雷德·范德马利埃（Fred Vandermarliere）进行了一次讨论，讨论了古典音乐和雪茄如何激发类似的内省情绪，并决定融合古典音乐和雪茄。
奥利维亚（Olivia）系列V梅兰尼奥·格兰托罗（Melanio Gran Toro）限量版2024款尺寸为5 1/2英寸 x 60环规，由与核心系列V梅兰尼奥相同的配方制成：厄瓜多尔苏门答腊封面叶搭配尼加拉瓜粘合剂和填充物。这款烟以每盒10支的规格出售，建议零售价为每支20美元或每盒200美元（不含税）。
打开盒子就像掀开一个钢琴盖（或者说是带琴键图案的盖子），里面还包着印有乐谱的组织纸。
产量限制在1万箱，供美国市场销售，另外还有5千箱供应国际市场。
这款产品在上周末的PCAS展会上展出，预计今年秋天开始向零售商发货。
An Oliva Cigar With Its Own Soundtrack

There are a plethora of items or activities to pair with cigars such as a special spirit or a meal, but what about a cigar that comes with its very own soundtrack? Oliva Cigar Co. has partnered with French musician and classical pianist Paul Montag for a “duet” between his music and a limited-edition Oliva Serie V Melanio cigar. By scanning the QR code on the inside of the cigar band, consumers can listen to a 45-minute recording of Montag playing piano inspired by cigar smoking as they light up their own.
Recorded in one take, the piece by Montag is called #dontsmokebutenjoy.
Oliva Serie V Melanio Gran Toro Limited Edition 2024
It all began in December 2023 when Montag sat at his piano and lit an Oliva Serie V Melanio to smoke as he played. Not long after, Montag and Fred Vandermarliere, CEO of Vandermarliere Cigar Family, the parent company of Oliva, had a discussion regarding how classical music and cigars inspire similarly introspective moods and decided to fuse classical music and cigars together.
“Music goes to the very depth of a person's soul, and cigars enable us to achieve a sense of plenitude through a form of introspection,” Montag said in a press release. “It's a unique experience that all aficionados will now be able to enjoy. Hence the title, which also winks at Fred’s company slogan: ‘Don't Smoke, But Enjoy.’”
Measuring 5 1/2 inches by 60 ring gauge, the Oliva Serie V Melanio Gran Toro Limited Edition 2024 consists of the same blend as the core Serie V Melanio line: an Ecuador Sumatra cover leaf atop Nicaraguan binder and fillers. It ships in boxes of 10 and has a suggested retail price of $20 each or $200 per box (before taxes).
Oliva Serie V Melanio Gran Toro Limited Edition 2024
Opening the box is like lifting the fallboard (or key lid) of a piano with a graphic of piano keys printed on the inner lid. The cigars are also covered in tissue paper with printed sheet music.
Production is limited to 10,000 boxes for the U.S. market, with an additional 5,000 for the international market.
It was on display at the PCA trade show this past weekend and is expected to start shipping to retailers this fall.
