Sir Winston Churchill was not a man to follow convention. When most people were thinking of their beds, Sir Winston found inspiration and creativity in the long dark hours of the night. The dark was where he found his spark.
Davidoff celebrates this facet of the Great Man with a special cigar – The Late Hour.
“Winston Churchill - The Late Hour” contains tobacco aged for six months in finest Scotch single malt whisky casks, a feat no one has attempted before.
The tobacco absorbs the aromas of the cask and whisky, which suffuses the cigar with a unique complexity, depth and the headiest of flavours, creating a unique stimulation of the palate.
To reflect the darkness during which Sir Winston was his most creative, Davidoff has selected a shiny and oily Ecuador wrapper in a beautiful dark chocolate colour.

Quality comes with age, and after 60 beautiful years of life, Rocky Patel’s passion for premium cigars has never been more refined. To celebrate his unbridled love for signature cigars, and in honour of this momentous occasion, we’re proud to present… The Rocky Patel Sixty.
The tobaccos used for this commemorative stick have been aged for at least six years prior to rolling. Once rolled, the cigars were allowed to age for a minimum of two years so that their flavours could marry.
Rocky and his team of expert blenders went through 145 different combinations before finally settling on the ideal blend for the Sixty. This specially selected blend features a delicious, dark chocolatey, oily Mexican San Andres maduro wrapper that envelops a binder and filler made of Nicaraguan tobaccos. The Sixty offers a smooth, balanced smoking experience with a rich complexity you will want to savour on special occasions or just because.

A formidable commander, Winston Churchill brought his imposing personality to bear on the many forces and resources over which he governed. He was a colossus of a character in every sense of the word. Nothing reflects this facet of the man better than the Toro format. Carrying the largest ring gauge in the Winston Churchill range, it is a grand cigar, from the first spicy, leathery, woody notes through the creamy, sweet influences of the Mexican binder to the final triumphant mix of flavours, courtesy of the Nicaraguan filler tobaccos from Esteli and Condegas. This is a cigar which follows in the Great Man’s footsteps and commands your attention.

For the Alma Fuerte, a team of five blenders, including Plasencia, Sr. and Jr., worked to create the cigar from 100% Nicaraguan tobaccos. The blend focuses around the family’s Criollo ’98 seed, using tobaccos from each of the major growing regions of Nicaragua (Condega, Estelí, Jalapa, and Ometepe). In addition, the Plasencias are using some of their rarest and most premium-grade leaves from their vast tobacco inventories.
