The Davidoff Maduro Series cigar line was first released in 2008 and featured a Nicaraguan Habano wrapper. This sought-after cigar was placed on hiatus in 2016. It has since been re-introduced only this time it sports a savory, dark chocolatey Ecuadorian maduro wrapper. To enhance the cigar’s overall performance, the cigar’s wrapper uses higher-priming wrapper leaves (aka Corte #7). These leaves receive the most sunlight because they grow on the uppermost part of the plant. Once picked, the leaves are naturally fermented for 16 months, which is twice as long as a typical fermentation process. The leaves are then carefully aged. The entire lengthy and labor-intensive process greatly contributes to the cigar’s intensity and complexity. When ready the wrapper is carefully applied to a Mexican binder which houses filler leaves from the Dominican Republic. The Davidoff Maduro Series cigar appeals to the aficionado who is looking for a refined and absorbing smoking indulgence.
