Davidoff Cigars has announced a new cigar exclusive to BLEND Bar, dubbed "BLEND Exclusive Salomones." The cigar measures 8.5 x 57, making it one of the largest Davidoff cigars ever made. It is available only at BLEND locations. The two companies have a five years long partnership going and the cigar is rolled by a select few of the most talented rollers at Davidoff Cigars. The concept of BLEND originated in Indianapolis, IN during 2013 and expanded to Nashville, TN, Pittsburgh, PA and The Woodlands, TX. In October 2015, BLEND announced a strategic partnership with Davidoff of Geneva USA. The partnership is the first and only one of its kind in the United States incorporating the “Davidoff of Geneva – since 1911” look and feel. Patrons of BLEND locations are offered premium cigars, spirits and wines in a social-friendly nightclub environment featuring exquisite design and furnishings and state-of-the-art ventilation systems which exchange lounge air every six minutes.
Davidoff has announced the re-introduction of the Robusto Real Especiales 7, a cigar that was originally released in 2004 comprised of 7 different tobaccos.

·"Great smoke. Amazing construction which has definitely contributed to the experience. Deep rich leather and nuttiness on bold display here. It's a flavor profile that I enjoyed a lot although there wasn't a lot of transitional stuff going on. I'd be happy to smoke these by the truckload, and I'd nub them every time. " -John I. (John I.)
I've talked to several people recently and the seeming consensus is that pretty much everyone makes good cigars; which is for the most part true. So what makes a great cigar? For me at least, it one that tells a story. This one told a story with it's clean flavors and ever changing profile. The burn started a little wavy but never needed a touch up or relight and eventually became razor sharp. I wish the draw was just slightly tighter; but I like a bit more resistance and others may find it perfect. The price point is a little high but I've smoked other cigars at similar prices that don't hold a candle to it. I can't recommend it enough and it's easily one of the top five cigars I've smoked this year.
Davidoff announced today a new cigar, the Limited Edition "Special 53 - Capa Dominicana." This is actually the return of a cigar originally released in 2002. The cigar itself is a unique 53 ring-gauge perfecto that contains tobacco all grown in the Dominican Republic. In 2002, it was believed impossible to grow wrapper leaf in the Dominican Republic.
"A very nice creation, I am pretty much nicotine impervious so I know that would be something most wont like about this stick and a select few will love about this stick. I loved the complexity and transitions. You can tell the manufactures wanted this Cigar to stand apart from every other cigar created. Thumbs up" -Ryan H. (Ryan H.)
"What started out as a phenomenal cigar faded quickly to bitter then harsh. There was such a great sweetness and fruit profile at the beginning I settled in to what I thought was going to be an epic cigar. Instead, the cigar turned dry and earthy with heavy ground coffee and wood notes on the finish. I will be curious to find out what this cigar is and determine if I just got the "one off" from the floor that was just not great, or if this is a common profile of the cigar." -Kevin A. (Kevin A.)
