To mark the Chinese year of the monkey and delight Chinese aficionados across the globe, Davidoff Cigars will be introducing a highly exclusive Chinese Year of the Monkey 2016 Limited Edition.
“Davidoff found its inspiration for this new 2016 limited edition in the character traits of the Chinese zodiac sign of the monkey and in the noble material associated with the cultures of South and East Asia — bamboo. There is no better way to celebrate the monkey’s charisma, appreciation for refinement, originality, and luxury than with this beautifully crafted and original special toro cigar,” says Charles Awad, s.v.p. marketing & innovation at Oettinger Davidoff AG.
These exclusive cigars have been lovingly crafted using the rarest and most precious ingredient — time. The special toro with an extraordinary pigtail is seen by connoisseurs as the most majestic cigar shape. The Ecuadorian Habano Rojiza wrapper holds this unique and complex blend of Nicaraguan, Mexican, Dominican, and Peruvian tobaccos which have been combined to perfection by the Davidoff master blenders, who share the monkey’s pursuit of complexity and class through artistry. Finally, the cigar’s individuality is confirmed by the second ring displaying the image of the monkey.
The 10 cigars will come in a hand-crafted premium bamboo wooden box with a laser engraving shaped and designed to reflect the aesthetic origins of Chinese culture. In Asia bamboo is not merely a plant; it forms part of people’s lives. It epitomizes qualities such as integrity, tenacity and an upright nature, the very same values possessed by any gentleman who enjoys a Davidoff cigar.
