Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Davidoff Grand Cru, and what makes it significant?
The Davidoff Grand Cru is one of the brand's core white label cigars, first introduced in 1946. Zino Davidoff modeled the blend on fine Bordeaux winemaking — three Dominican filler tobaccos, each contributing a distinct characteristic, unified under an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper. It's been in continuous production for nearly 80 years and remains the benchmark for mild-to-medium Dominican cigars.
What is the Davidoff Grand Cru made of?
The Davidoff Grand Cru uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut shade wrapper over a Dominican binder and a blend of aged Dominican long-fillers — including Olor, San Vicente, and Piloto Cubano tobaccos. All tobacco is grown and produced at Cigars Davidoff in the Dominican Republic.
How strong is the Davidoff Grand Cru?
The Davidoff Grand Cru is mild to medium-bodied. It's one of the most approachable cigars in Davidoff's lineup, making it a natural fit for newer smokers and a go-to for experienced smokers who want elegance without strength.
What flavors does the Davidoff Grand Cru deliver?
Expect cedar, toasted nuts, white pepper on the retrohale, and a creamy finish. Holt's describes the overall profile as cedar, grain, grass, and spice over a mellow foundation. The cigar is known for consistent balance start to finish.
What sizes does Renegade Cigars carry for the Davidoff Grand Cru, and what do they cost?
We carry five sizes: No.2 (5 5/8x43) at $23.80, No.3 (5x43) at $20.50, No.5 (4x41) at $16.40, Robusto (5 1/4x52) at $27.90, and Toro (6x54) at $32.20. Box options are available as well — ask in-store for current stock.
Does the vitola affect the Davidoff Grand Cru's flavor?
Yes, meaningfully. The No.3 uses a higher percentage of Piloto tobacco given its smaller ring gauge, which slightly emphasizes the pepper notes. The Robusto opens up more creaminess and body due to the wider ring gauge. The blend is the same; the format shapes the experience.
Is the Davidoff Grand Cru a good cigar for beginners?
It's one of the best options for someone new to premium cigars. The mild-to-medium strength keeps it accessible, the Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper is forgiving and smooth, and the construction — rolled exclusively by select master rollers at Cigars Davidoff — makes for consistent draws and burns.
How does the Davidoff Grand Cru compare to the Davidoff Aniversario?
Both use an Ecuadorian Connecticut shade wrapper and Dominican tobaccos, but they're distinct smokes. The Grand Cru is slightly milder with more cedar and grass character. The Aniversario runs medium-bodied with more pronounced cream, cedar, and nut notes. The Aniversario also comes in larger vitolas like the Double R (7 1/2x50).
