THE DAVIDOFF YEAR OF THE SNAKE LIMITED EDITION CIGAR
INNOVATIVE BLEND AND TASTE PROFILE
The taste profile of the blend is quite unusual and a novelty for a Davidoff cigar. With its flavours of lemon, leather and coffee, the limited edition cigar makes for a perfect introduction to the new cycle.The Dominican San Vicente and the Mexican Negro San Andres filler tobaccos, which are both known to stimulate the a reason the palate responsible for sour and salty sensations, drive the fresh and lemony notes.The blend is not only unique in taste stimulation, but also in tobacco innovation. This is only the second time Davidoff’s Master Blenders have used Mexican filler tobacco in a cigar, and the first time they have used a Dominican hybrid seed 98 tobacco from the Martin Garcia terroir, which adds sweet and creamy notes.The wrapper and binder are both from Ecuador and perfectly balance the flavours.
LANCERO FORMAT
Like the previous 2013 Snake churchill cigar, the long and slender lancero format pays homage to the shape of a snake. Because of its length, a lancero is considered one of the most elegant cigar formats and perfectly captures the elegance of the Snake’s character. Davidoff’s Master Blenders envisioned the flavours gliding dynamically across the palate, often changing direction, while maintaining Davidoff’s signature balance – a challenge for a complex blend in such limited space.
PACKAGING INNOVATION
The Year of the Snake Limited Edition 2025 comes in a wooden box of ten, which, like the Snake, is elegant, graceful and serene on the outside, but leaves the excitement inside for those who want to explore. A removable wooden frame adds to the excitement of unboxing and the novelties inside. Aficionados will receive their removable, numbered collector’s coin and can admire the second band of the cigar in red with a yellow accent.As red is considered a lucky colour in Chinese culture, and yellow isone of the lucky colours of the Snake zodiac sign, the combination is believed to bring good fortune and prosperity.Limited to 4,200 boxes worldwide.
