Davidoff Launches Winston Churchill Cigars

Swiss cigar manufacturer Oettinger Davidoff has announced their latest creation, a cigar named after the famous Sir Winston Churchill. The Churchill Millenium Blend is set apart from many of Davidoff's other cigars in a couple of ways, including the fact that it's quite a bit stronger in flavor and is wrapped in a rare variety of tobacco leaf that leaves it with a darker than average appearance. The Churchill range of cigars will be made of tobacco grown in the Dominican Republic, Peru, Nicaragua and Ecuador.

For your December cigar gift-giving needs, Davidoff has come out with something new and pricey. The Davidoff Royal Salomones have a 21-centimeter, extralong Salomones format with a 57 ring gauge. It has a slightly bulbous shape at the cigar's lower end. Only the four best Davidoff cigar rollers are put to work creating the cigar in the factory at Villa Gonzalez, in the Dominican Republic. The cigars use a blend of seven tobaccos which are fermented and matured for at least seven years. The binder leaf and filler tobaccos originate from the Dominican Republic and are grown in the Cibao Valley. The cigar is a medium strength smoke with a full rich flavor. The cigars come in a box of 50 which is made of mahogany wood with cedar wood trays. The cigar is available in a limited edition starting this month. I haven't heard any word on official pricing but rumors earlier this year put the price at around $2,000 a box.

A while back I wrote about a celebratory dinner for the 100th anniversary of the birth of cigar legend Zino Davidoff. If you weren't able to attend any of the celebrations you can still settle down with one amazing smoke to celebrate. The Diademas Finas has a ring gauge of 50 and a length of 6 3/4" and is meant to resemble Zino Davidoff's Diademas creation from 1948. The perfecto cigars come in a box of 10 which is wrapped in a special paper depicting Zino Davidoff in a photograph in front of his Geneva shop around 1940.

What is in the cigar? The Davidoff crew have kept that under wraps but according to a Robb Report article the filler is Dominican and comprises five different tobaccos. Some think the wrapper is Connecticut shade. A box of ten sells for $220 so you can make your own guesses as to what is inside.

Make your way down to Havana on February 27th for the VIII Festival del Habano. The 5 day event offers a variety of activities to celebrate and promote cigars. Visits of tobacco plantations and even a tour of the factory which was once home to Davidoff, Cohiba and Trinidad will take place. There will also be special cigar and spirit matching sessions. The whole cigar fest will set you back about 1,260 Cuban Convertible Pesos. Perhaps we should convert to a more useful currency, like US dollars. So if we multiply by the number of US dollars per convertible peso, that comes out to ... 1,260 US dollars.

Cigarillos get a bad rap sometimes but if you don't have the time to devote to a full cigar they can be perfect. Famed cigar maker Davidoff has created Davidoff Club Cigarillos which use tobaccos from lands within the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans and are created in Denmark. The filler is composed of tobacco found in Eastern Java, Brazil and the Dominican Republic. The binder is also from Java and the wrapper is from Sumatra, from where the wrapper originates. The cigarillos come in metal tins of ten and sell for around $55.
