Davidoff Honors Winston Churchill
Launched in December, the new Davidoff Win-
ston Churchill cigar honors the world’s most icon-
ic cigar aficionado: Sir Winston Churchill. “The
aim was to craft this new range of exceptional ci-
gars as uniquely diverse as the man who inspired
them,” explains a spokesperson for the company.
This exclusive cigar range from Davidoff is
composed of a new characterful blend. It is
crafted with tobaccos coming from four different
countries. It took time, patience and persever-
ance to create these fine cigars, and to deliver
these exceptional blends with the complex char-
acter and refined sophistication that aficionados
expect from Davidoff. The blend maintains the
expected refinement and elegance of a Davidoff
cigar, while pushing particular palate stimulations
and flavors further. Strength of the blend is medi-
um-to-full with a wide palette of exciting flavors
and aromas. The cigars are adorned with a beau-
tiful shiny and oily wrapper with a slight reddish
touch. Due to the different Seco tobaccos, the ci-
gars deliver an excellent, even burn and a firm white ash.
Petit Corona (4x41)
The Winston Churchill Petit Corona is the shortest cigar in the range. Due to the
smaller ring gauge and size, this cigar feels stronger and delivers less pronounced fla-
vor nuances in the body. Beautiful pepper flavors together with dark coffee and toasty
notes dominate. Available in boxes of 20 Petit Corona cigars.
Robusto (5x52)
The strength is slightly decreased and the flavors are more overt. The complexity of
this cigar is more amplified and the flavors more pronounced. Leather and dark cof-
fee flavors take a front role with a creamy aftertaste. Available in boxes of 20 Robusto
cigars.
Churchill (6.875x47)
In this majestic format, the aromas are more pronounced, the flavors are multiple
and the nuances of the different tobaccos are more independent. The body of the
cigar is very present, and the mouthfeel of the smoke delivers beautiful flavors of chili
pepper and cedar wood in the beginning, leather and roasted flavors in the second
third, and finishes off with creamy and nutty notes. Available in boxes of 20 Churchill
cigars.
Toro (6x54)
Carrying the largest ring gauge in the Winston Churchill range, this is a grand cigar
from the first spicy, leathery, woody notes through the creamy, sweet influences of the
Mexican binder to the final triumphant mix of flavors, courtesy of the Nicaraguan filler
tobaccos from Esteli and Condegas. Available in boxes of 20 Toro cigars.
