Davidoff Aniversario No.1 Limited Edition Cigar – Single

The Davidoff Aniversario No.1 Limited Edition Collection revives a historic blend originally crafted in 1986 to commemorate Zino Davidoff’s 80th birthday. This release includes two distinct vitolas: the Double Corona (7 1/2 inches, 49 ring gauge) and the Panetela Larga (8 2/3 inches, 48 ring gauge). Both cigars use aged Dominican filler and binder tobaccos, paired with an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper noted for its golden hue and smooth texture.

The Double Corona delivers a 140-minute smoking experience divided into three phases. Initial flavors of cedar wood and cream transition to citrus and roasted nuts in the second third, finishing with walnut and fresh spice. Its extended burn time and balanced profile make it suited for collectors seeking a nostalgic yet structured smoke.

The Panetela Larga emphasizes complexity through its elongated format. The first half reveals cedar, toasted almonds, and white pepper, followed by caramelized sweetness and dried fruit nuances. Earthy undertones and nutmeg emerge in the final third, complemented by a consistent burn and creamy smoke output. Both variants maintain medium-bodied strength, aligning with Davidoff’s emphasis on balance.

Constructed with a Dominican Olor binder and Piloto Seco/Piloto Ligero/San Vicente Mejorado fillers, the blend achieves uniformity in draw and combustion. The Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper contributes mild spice and a silky combustion quality. Limited production underscores their status as collector’s items, ideal for pairing with Champagne or aged spirits.
