In April 2024, Davidoff brought back its Davidoff Maduro line, which had previously been off the market for just about eight years.

Davidoff first introduced the Maduro in 2008, though it was discontinued in 2016 as part of a portfolio trimming that included parts of its Puro d’Oro and Aniversarion lines, as well as the Davidoff Classic No. 1 and No. 3; Grand Cru No. 1 and No. 4; and the Millennium Blend Lancero and Lonsdale.

Its return was first made by way of it being an auction item at the 2024 Procigar Festival in the Dominican Republic. The company contributed one of its Monolith Humidors, a container made from a single piece of moca creme limestone with an odorless wood interior, likely okume wood. Inside that humidor were 120 of the Davidoff Maduro Toro. The item sold for $35,000 during the festival’s auction.

The Davidoff Maduro returns with a new blend, using an Ecuadorian maduro wrapper, a Mexican binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic. Getting more into the details, Davidoff says it “doubled the fermentation period of Maduro’s wrapper leaf, thus creating a natural temperature increase in the fermentation pile tailored to the leaf.” That extended the time period to 16 months in total. Additionally, the wrapper is described as a higher-priming “Corte #7” leaf, meaning it is higher up on the plant and receives more sunlight, which also tends to mean an increased flavor and strength profile.

“Time makes all the difference in our new Maduro line. We refrain from adding any external heat sources and allow nature and time to perfect the leaves in our expertly maintained fermentation pile,” said Edward Simon, chief marketing officer at Oettinger Davidoff, in a press release last month. “This labour- and time-intensive process, accompanied by extensive testing and followed by a long ageing phase, has resulted in a wonderfully refined cigar with a flavour profile and body that will be highly sought-after in the market. I am sure that our new Maduro, in which we have invested so much dedication and knowledge, will fill our aficionados’ time beautifully.”
