Davidoff Cigars: Davidoff has an unsurpassed worldwide reputation for producing some of the finest Cigars in the world. The story began in 1906 when the iconic Zino Davidoff was born into a family with a long history in the tobacco trade. His passion and enthusiasm turned his family's modest Tobacconist shop in Switzerland into a cosmopolitan hotspot drawing many A list celebrities through the door as he re-wrote the manual for the Cigar market. Before Zino Davidoff the humidor did not exist!!

In 1967 Zino Davidoff set the Cigar World alight (see what we did there) by teaming up with the Cubans and developing the davidoff cuban line which gave Cuban Cigars the reputation they still enjoy today. However being so fanatical about his brand the relationship crumpled over quality issues as he publicly burned 100,000 Cigars rather than sell them. He moved production to the Dominican where he believed the quality of rolling was far superior. It is widely recognised that this influence is the reason why Dominican Cigars are the No.1 selling Cigars in the world.

Davidoff Grand Cru No.5: Zino Davidoff first created this line in 1946 in collaboration with A.Durr & Co. Davidoff called the Chateaux series of cigars which ranged in size from a Petit Corona to a Grand Corona. These Vitolas have been reproduced for the Grand Cru series. These sophisticated cigars offer up complex flavours of nuts and wood with a delicate blend of acidic San Vincente, salty Olor and spicy Piloto Cubano tobaccos. The No.5 is a short Petit Corona which allows for more of the Ligero tobacco to shine through for extra depth and strength without overpowering the complex aromas.

Preparation: Please note the Davidoff Cigars are premium hand rolled cigars and therefore require cutting or punching before they can be enjoyed.
