In an industry farewell of sorts, Matt Booth, owner of the Room101 series of cigar brands, told Cigar Aficionado that he's leaving the cigar business, severing ties with Davidoff of Geneva, the Swiss cigar corporation that distributed his cigar lines for nearly eight years. Now, the brands are in his hands and he's not quite sure what's going to happen next. One thing Booth is sure of is that he's taking a hiatus from the cigar industry to focus more on his jewelry business (also called Room101). As of now, he says he doesn't know if—or when—he'll return to the world of cigars.

·"This one was really different, and that is a good thing. No more of the same old flavor profile here. Some unique flavors mixed with a great burn and tons of smoke output, that makes this a cigar I want to try again. I will be glad to find out what this one is." -Matthew T. (A Huge Nerd)

Basel, April 2017. Davidoff Cigars' mission is to broaden the cigar horizons of the world's aficionados and help them explore and experience the wider world of cigars. Zino Davidoff, a pioneer, a visionary and a guiding spirit, started his life work at an early age. In only five years he travelled across South and Central America: Argentina, Brazil and of course Cuba in search of exciting new flavours. During this life experience he learned everything about tobacco, studying not only how it was cultivated, dried and fermented but more importantly about how best to blend tobaccos into delightful cigars. Following Zino’s footprints, Davidoff Master Blenders are on the same mission: to craft blends that will help aficionados to discover the wider world of tobaccos and experience cigars with exciting and surprising tastes.
