Davidoff Aniversario #1 (8 2/3 x 48)

Description

Davidoff Aniversario No. 1 Limited Edition, a massive 8 2/3 x 48 double corona that was originally created for the 80th birthday of Zino Davidoff. Blend-wise, the cigar uses an an Ecuadorian-Connecticut-seed wrapper, an Ecuadorian binder and three different Dominican fillers: piloto viso, San Vicente viso and San Vicente mejorado viso. The cigars are sold in boxes of 10 with nine cigars packaged in cellophane and one cigar coming in a large wooden tubo, a nod to how the cigar was packaged in the past.  Zino Davidoff created the Davidoff Aniversario 80th as a way to celebrate his 80th birthday. It is said that he wanted a cigar that he could light up while he was still 79 and smoke well into the first hours of his 80s. At that time, Davidoffs were still rolled in Cuba, though the cigar was continued to be produced once the Swiss brand moved its production to the Dominican Republic. The cigar, then part of the Aniversario line, was discontinued in 2016.
