In 1946, Zino Davidoff created a line of cigars inspired by the world of wine. The blend was to be selected according to the soil and climate in which the tobacco grew, and just as the finest red wines are blended from three different main grape varieties, these cigars were to contain three different filler tobaccos. The line we know today as Davidoff Grand Cru has its origins in this wine-cigar analogy. The Grand Cru Diademas Finas Limited Edition Collection is Davidoff’s first Grand Cru cigar in the Figurado format and contains a filler tobacco that has been aged in a Premier Grand Cru Classé red wine barrel.

Davidoff’s master blenders have added a Dominican San Vicente filler tobacco to the blend. This tobacco is a finer leaf that can absorb more of the wine aromas from the barrel and helps the cigar resemble the character of a red wine – a combination that caresses the palate like a wine swirled in the glass. The exceptional experience begins with pronounced citrus notes. As soon as the filler tobaccos take the lead, the taste develops towards pepper and roasted nuts. Creamy notes contribute to the cigar’s remarkable balance. In the second third, the Dominican San Vicente Seco, matured in the wine barrel, comes to the fore. Aromas of dark cherry dominate and are complemented by oak and earth. The grand finale of the Diademas Finas is characterized by pronounced notes of walnut and an increasing intensity. Additional aromas of fresh spice and vanilla round off the Grand Cru experience.
