Year of the Horse LE 2025

DAVIDOFF YEAR OF THE HORSE LIMITED EDITION 2026

THE STORY
GRACE IN MOTION
When a spark ignites the leaves, an extraordinary spirit awakens – its smoke rising in elegant ribbons, echoing the vitality of the Horse.

Independent elegance. Persuasive presence.

The Horse strides into the room, not to command, but to connect – its very nature sparking laughter, dialogue, and inspiration. With effortless charm and graceful cadence, aficionados born in the Year of the Horse breathe life into every encounter – their joy as captivating as the first draw of this majestic toro especial.

Zino Davidoff, born under the sign of the Horse, understood this rhythm: the spark of individuality, the hunger for adventure, and the gift of transforming a simple moment into a grand occasion.

The Horse’s relentless drive can sometimes lead to restless wandering. Yet, it is in this boundless spirit that brilliance is born. Presence cannot be tamed – it moves with freedom, finishes with flair, and lingers with meaning.

So too does this Year of the Horse cigar.

Crafted by Davidoff’s Master Blenders to capture the Horse’s vitality, the Limited Edition offers a sensorial journey as dynamic and versatile as the sign it honors – accented with touches of green, the Horse’s lucky colour, evoking renewal, vitality and spirited elegance.

BLEND INNOVATION – HYBRID SEEDS
• Drawing inspiration from the wide range of horse breeds, Davidoff has created
a blend that is composed entirely of proprietary hybrid seeds for the first time.

• Each of the six hybrid seed varieties underwent a seven-year development
process before being selected, cultivated, and finally approved under Davidoff’s exacting standards. Today, they are part of Davidoff’s top-secret seed bank, which now holds over 80 uniquely developed hybrids.

VINTAGE TOBACCOS
• Crafted from select and vintage tobaccos with a combined age of 43 years.
Filler: 3 x 10 years (vintage), 1 x 6 years Binder: 4 years Wrapper: 3 years

• The carefully aged Dominican filler tobaccos add depth, complexity, and smoothness to the blend — a richness born of time that refines the cigar’s character.

• Beautiful notes of cream, chocolate, and roasted hazelnut enhance the cigar’s exquisite flavour profile, followed by a long, elegant finish.

TORO ESPECIAL – CRAFTSMANSHIP
• The uniqueness of this blend, crafted entirely from proprietary hybrid seeds, is
celebrated in a format never before created by Davidoff: 55 x 6 ½.

• The impressive Toro Especial embodies the Horse’s elegant presence and spirited
grace.

• Expertly crafted by Davidoff’s Master Rollers, each with a minimum of 15 years of
experience.

THE PACKAGING
INSPIRED BY THE CHARACTER TRAITS OF THE HORSE

The Year of the Horse Limited Edition continues the design language established with the Snake release, combining refined elegance with thoughtful material choices. The ten-count box is crafted from natural, dark-toned solid wood, retains its auspicious red colour, and reflects Davidoff’s ongoing commitment to more
sustainable materials.

The unboxing reveals distinctive design details honoring the Horse. Upon opening, the interior showcases a padded and stitched frame in green, one of the Horse’s lucky colours, reminiscent of a finely crafted saddle pad. A removable strap with debossed and foiled branding, inspired by a horse’s reins, secures the cigars neatly in place with quiet sophistication.

Inside the lid, aficionados will find an engraved Davidoff logo and a printed Year of the Horse pattern featuring horseshoes, reinforcing the symbolic link to good fortune. Each cigar carries a second band with green accents, further emphasizing the lucky colour.

A removable, numbered collector’s coin is included within the box, enhancing its appeal for collectors and loyal Davidoff connoisseurs alike.

This edition is limited to 5,970 boxes in the US.
