Why We Became an Approved Davidoff Stockist — And What That Means for You
We're Proud to Be an Approved Davidoff Stockist
At Bourbon and Cigars Blackpool, we've always believed that a truly great cigar deserves to be treated with the same reverence as a fine aged whisky. That's why becoming an approved Davidoff stockist is a milestone we're genuinely proud of.
Davidoff is not simply a cigar brand — it is a philosophy. Founded by the legendary Zino Davidoff in Geneva in 1968, the house has spent over five decades setting the global standard for premium cigars. To carry the Davidoff name is to carry a commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and the art of slow living. It is a privilege we do not take lightly.
Here's a guide to our current Davidoff range — what each cigar offers, when to smoke it, and what to pour alongside it.
Our Davidoff Range
Davidoff Signature 2000
The Davidoff Signature 2000 is a timeless classic — a mild to medium Dominican puro dressed in a silky Connecticut Shade wrapper. Expect creamy, refined notes of cedar, white pepper, and delicate florals. It's the cigar that introduced countless aficionados to the Davidoff world, and it remains one of the most elegant smokes in the portfolio.
Best for: Morning or early afternoon smoking, post-breakfast, or as an introduction to premium cigars for a guest.
Whisky Pairing: A light, floral Speyside single malt — try a Glenfiddich 12 or Glenlivet 15. The gentle sweetness of the whisky mirrors the cigar's creamy character without overpowering it. Try a Wild Turkey 101 for a american whiskey take on it.
Davidoff Aniversario Special 'R'
From the prestigious Aniversario line, the Special 'R' is a medium to full-bodied Dominican masterpiece. Rich notes of dark chocolate, roasted coffee, dried fruit, and warm spice evolve beautifully across each third. This is a cigar for the serious aficionado — complex, layered, and deeply satisfying.
Best for: A long, unhurried evening. A celebratory smoke — a promotion, an anniversary, a milestone worth marking.
Whisky Pairing: A rich, sherried Highland or Speyside — Glenfarclas 15 or Aberlour A'bunadh are exceptional choices. The dried fruit and spice notes in both the cigar and whisky create a beautifully harmonious pairing. Consider also a Thomas H. Handy Sazerac for a spicy pairing.
Davidoff Winston Churchill Robusto
A bold tribute to history's most famous cigar lover, the Winston Churchill Robusto is a commanding medium to full-bodied smoke. Ecuadorian Sun Grown wrapper over Dominican long-fillers delivers waves of roasted oak, dark spice, leather, and a rich, lingering sweetness.
Best for: Post-dinner, paired with a dram and good conversation. A confident, assertive smoke for those who like their cigars to make a statement.
Whisky Pairing: A peated Islay or a robust American bourbon — Lagavulin 16 or Woodford Reserve Double Oaked stand up beautifully to the cigar's bold character. The smoke and oak notes intertwine magnificently.
Davidoff Winston Churchill Belicoso
The Winston Churchill Belicoso shares the same bold DNA as the Robusto but with the added elegance of a tapered Belicoso head, which concentrates the flavours and delivers an exceptionally refined draw. Notes of toasted cedar, dark chocolate, coffee, and warm spice make this one of the most complex cigars in the Churchill line.
Best for: A special occasion where you want both power and finesse. Ideal for the aficionado who appreciates format as much as flavour.
Whisky Pairing: A well-aged bourbon with strong oak influence — Blanton's Single Barrel or Eagle Rare 10 complement the cedar and chocolate notes superbly. Alternatively, a Dalmore 15 for a more Scotch-forward pairing.
Also in Our Range
Zino Robusto
Named in honour of Zino Davidoff himself, the Zino Robusto is a mild to medium Dominican smoke with a creamy, approachable character. Notes of cedar, toasted almonds, and gentle spice make it an ideal everyday cigar or a welcoming introduction for newer smokers.
Best for: An afternoon break, a casual weekend smoke, or as a gift for someone exploring premium cigars for the first time.
Whisky Pairing: A light Irish whiskey or a gentle blended Scotch — Teeling Single Grain or Monkey Shoulder pair beautifully without competing with the cigar's subtlety. A smooth Makers Mark is a perfect bourbon choice.
Zino Half Corona
The Zino Half Corona is proof that great things come in small packages. A mild Dominican smoke with notes of creamy vanilla, cedar, and toasted nuts, it's the perfect cigar when time is short but quality is non-negotiable.
Best for: A morning coffee break, a quick post-lunch smoke, or as a gentle introduction to cigars for a curious friend.
Whisky Pairing: A light, sweet dram — Auchentoshan Three Wood or a honey-forward Glenmorangie Original are delightful companions to this mild, creamy smoke. A smooth Buffalo trace also is a popular choice, try our Award winning Barrel Pick as top choice.
