Davidoff Cigars have a built up a well earned reputation for quality over the past 100 years. We’ve seen their commitment to consistency as well as the willingness to take major risks, like reinventing some of their classic cigars. There’s always something to look forward to with Davidoff and their ongoing series of limited edition cigars always keeps us on our toes.
Millenium Collection
In 1999, Davidoff released 2,500 boxes of their first Millennium Collection cigars. The small quantity – not to mention the four year aged tobacco and long fermented wrappers – quickly made these a sought after smoke. The company would then go on to expand the line multiple times throughout the decade. Perhaps most importantly, this collection sparked a new passion for limited edition cigars within the company that carries on to today through various other collections.
Art Edition
Cigar fans will gladly tell you about the artistry that goes into making a cigar, but with the Davidoff Art Editions the company was able to bridge the gap into the world of conventional, modern art. With each new line, whether it be the Art Edition 2014 or Art Edition 2016, Davidoff commissioned artists to create original works to pair with the cigars. These are fine, sophisticated smokes with packaging that feels like it should be in a gallery itself. Perfect for smokers who love robust flavor and fine art.
Masters Edition and Golf Scorecard
If you’re a fan of professional golf or just like to relax with a day out on the links, you’re likely in awe at the impeccable skill golfers bring to the Masters Tournament. That same feeling of prestige is carried out in Davidoff’s Masters Edition 2015, created with golfers in mind. You may not have a swing like Sergio Garcia, but you’ll feel like you do when you’re smoking one of these on the golf course.
For those who enjoy company while you make your way to the green, their Golf Scorecard 2016 cigars are packaged in packs of four and are intended to be shared with your fellow golfers. One of the stogies even comes with a second gold ring – intended for the winner of your match.
Chef’s Edition
The way cigar smokers talk about the flavor of cigars can often feel like describing a meal. Attune to this idea, Davidoff created the Chef’s Edition. Making your way through the cigar, you’ll be treated to a variety of flavors that keep building on each other. It gets richer and richer as it goes along, eventually settling into a peppery and sweet “grand finale.” If you love fine dining just as much as you love smoking cigars, this is the one to keep in your humidor.
Chinese New Year Cigars
As the lunar calendar changes, Chinese New Year celebrations begin. This centuries old tradition aligns a sign from the Chinese zodiac with the incoming year. To honor this event, Davidoff has begun releasing special edition cigars to pair with the festivities. Right now we’re well into the Year of the Rooster and there’s a namesake cigar to go along with it. The next Year of the Sheep won’t be until 2027, but you can still pick up and enjoy some of the limited 2015 blends.
These are just scratching the surface of the vast limited editions that Davidoff is always cooking up. As a fan of cigars, it’s always a treat seeing a company put fun and compelling takes on their limited stogies. What limited edition do you want to hunt down the most?
