In 1946, Zino Davidoff designed a line of cigars which would be crafted like
classic Bordeaux wines.
The blend would be selected depending on the soil and the climate in which
the tobacco grew, just like the French ‘terroirs’.
And just as Bordeaux wines blend three different main grapes, these cigars
would feature three different fillers.
Voilá, Davidoff Grand Cru cigars were born.
Now, like the rich, ripe grapes of Bordeaux, the fruits of another piece of
innovation have been harvested and turned into a truly remarkable cigar, one
even more deserving of the title Grand Cru.
For the Diademas Finas Limited Edition Collection incorporates tobacco
aged in Premier Grand Cru red wine casks from Bordeaux.
In the spirit of Zino’s pioneering blends, this is the first time where a winecask
aged tobacco has been used.
A San Vicente seco tobacco is matured for six months in the casks.
As a result, the flavour carries the same notes which characterise the
chateaux wines – dark cherries, walnuts and citrus. The combination rolls
around in the mouth like wine being swirled in a glass.
To add extra distinctiveness to this Limited Edition, it comes in the striking
figurado format.
The shape guides the palate towards the richness of the blend.
Perfect to accompany a vintage bottle from France’s most celebrated wine
region.
For this is truly vintage Davidoff.
Santé.
