Basel, Switzerland, April 2022 – Davidoff Cigars releases a limited edition Gran Toro cigar in 2022 that combines the best of the landmark tobaccos of the Black Band Collection lines Escurio, Nicaragua and Yamasá.

Crafted for those in the mood to explore new taste sensations, Davidoff invites cigar aficionados around the world to discover how nature’s elements have molded and influenced the climate, soils and tobacco plants which blend the Davidoff cigar lines with the striking black band.

The rains of Brazil’s Bahia region induce the salty, sweet and spicy taste of Davidoff Escurio. The volcanic soils of Nicaragua nurture the fiery bittersweet intensity in Davidoff Nicaragua. All the while, the iron-rich red soils of the Dominican Yamasá valley grow the earthy deep complexity of the Davidoff Yamasá blend.

Limited Edition 2022
Where water, fire and earth meet is where the Davidoff Limited Edition 2022 Gran Toro cigar finds its origins. Davidoff Master Blenders have merged those landmark tobaccos from the successful Black Band Collection. The result is a diverse blend combining the sweetness of Davidoff Escurio, the intensity of Davidoff Nicaragua and the complexity of Davidoff Yamasá. For every aficionado who likes to explore, this is finding an El Dorado of flavours and taste immersion.

Taste Experience
The Gran Toro’s relatively big ring gauge of 58 allows for a greater amount of the Black Band Collection’s landmark tobaccos from Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic and Brazil in the filler. The consequently reduced influence of the Ecuadorian wrapper tobacco results in a highly balanced blend with a strong intensity. Right from the start, this exciting and diverse cigar’s filler and binder tobaccos create intense notes of leather, earth and pepper. In the second third, strong notes of coffee, wood and nuts stimulate the aficionado’s palate, only to conclude in cedar wood, dark chocolate and leather aromas as this Gran Toro comes to its grand finale. The Davidoff Limited Edition 2022 creates an undreamed-of experience of 60 to 70 minutes of time beautifully filled.

The 12 Gran Toro cigars come in a black box highlighted with a blended trio logo. The colors and the leaf shapes nod to the origins of the blend and thus highlight the best of the pre-existing Black Band Collection lines Escurio, Nicaragua and Yamasá. The edition is limited to 13,500 boxes worldwide.
