Davidoff Small Batch White Edition 2012 Robusto Gordo

The Davidoff Small Batch White Edition 2012 Robusto Gordo is a premium cigar limited to 500 packs in Switzerland, which impressively reflects the craftsmanship and passion of the Davidoff master blenders.

Origin and format

This cigar is a Dominican Puro, produced in the Robusto Gordo format with a length of 14.6 cm and a ring gauge of 52. All the tobaccos come from the Dominican Republic, with the filler tobaccos having been matured for an average of six years. Particularly noteworthy is the San Vicente Mejorado Visus, which impresses with its intense creaminess and spicy notes in the aftertaste.

Flavour profile

When lit, the cigar unfolds a harmonious symphony of pepper, floral notes and cream. The second third is dominated by flavours of roasted nuts, dark coffee and spices. The finish is characterised by dark chocolate, oak and ginger. The combination of these flavours makes for a balanced and complex smoking experience.

Design and packaging

The cigar has a medium brown, silky criollo wrapper with a light colourado hue. It comes with two bands: a classic white Davidoff band with gold lettering and a white foot band embossed with "2012". The ten cigars are wrapped in brown paper, of which only 8,000 individually numbered cigars are available worldwide.
