Davidoff, Signature 6000 Cigar

[Acquire from Davidoff]

The cigar that others are compared to, by the box.

Dominican Republic · Robusto, 5 inches · Box of 25

Why it's here

Zino Davidoff taught the world to treat cigars with care, and the white band still stands for consistency above all. The Signature line is the mildest and creamiest the house makes, which means a guest who smokes twice a year will enjoy it as much as one who smokes daily. We list it by the box because that is how a host buys: enough to offer freely for a year.

The object

The 6000 is a robusto, short and fairly slim, with a pale, silky wrapper from Ecuador over Dominican tobacco. It begins with toasted grain and oak, moves through a gentle sweetness and finishes on cedar with a little pepper. It burns for about forty minutes.

Living with it

Keep the box in a humidor and bring it out after dinner. Cut the cap cleanly, toast the foot before drawing, and take your time. It pairs well with coffee, aged rum or the Champagne you already have open.
