  • Davidoff Announces the Grande Humidor

    Davidoff Cigars proudly unveils its latest innovation: the Grande Humidor. Handcrafted in Italy from Gaboon ebony and okoumé wood and distinguished by its generous proportions, this refined humidor offers a secure and spacious home for up to 140 cigars. Aficionados may choose between a matte or glossy finish, each highlighting the natural beauty of the wood’s striking grain.

    Davidoff Cigars, whose visionary founder Zino Davidoff created the very first humidor, has remained at the forefront of humidor craftsmanship ever since. In recent years, the brand has introduced a number of groundbreaking designs made from stone and glass, alongside unique Masterpiece Humidors in collaboration with renowned artists, modernised travel humidors and a refreshed collection of traditional models.

    2025 marks the debut of a humidor designed to please those in possession of a large cigar collection. “I am delighted to present our new Grande Humidor to our aficionados,” says Edward Simon, CSMO at Oettinger Davidoff. “With its captivating ebony grain exterior – a prized material known for its rich, deep tones and refined elegance – this humidor is a tribute to Italian craftsmanship. It offers connoisseurs not only ample space for their cigars, but also an exceptional value rarely seen at this level of quality and size.”

    A handcrafted work of art

    The Grande Humidor is a striking synthesis of natural elegance and artisanal precision – its name a nod to both its impressive capacity and the grandeur of its craftsmanship. The exterior, made from durable Gaboon ebony, boasts a rich sheen and a distinctive black-and-brown grain that varies with each piece – ensuring every humidor is truly one of a kind. Prized for its rarity and deep colouration, ebony has long symbolised luxury and exclusivity, making it a fitting material for such an exquisite creation. The interior, crafted from odourless okoumé wood, in combination with two Davidoff De Luxe regulators, preserves up to 140 cigars in optimal condition. A removable tray with wooden dividers allows for effortless organisation.

    Each unit showcases a mesmerising mirrored grain pattern, achieved through meticulous craftsmanship involving the stitching of hand-selected wood veneers. To further enhance the visual impact, every humidor is varnished and sanded five times before receiving its final matte or glossy finish. Despite its generous size, the humidor remains an elegant and understated presence in any interior that fills any spectator’s time beautifully.

    Dimensions: 480 × 280 × 200 mm | 18.9 × 11.02 × 7.87 in

    Launch & availability

    The new Davidoff Grande Humidor will be available as of 23 October 2025 at select Davidoff appointed merchants and flagship stores around the world.

  • Now Live – Telford’s Pipe & Cigar Lounge & Humidor Tour

    Earlier this year, I had an opportunity to stop at Telford’s Pipe & Cigar in Mill Valley, California and meet Brian Telford, who started the business in 1970! The shop is a masterclass in the history of pipe tobacco and cigars in the United States for the last 100+ years.

    It was truly a special day to get a few minutes to chat with Brian and listen to the history of Telford’s as well as the challenges of owning a tobacco retailer in California given the states aggressive regulation, as well as local county ordinances and regulations. Nevertheless, the shop is truly one-of-a-kind and is a must-visit if you are in the San Francisco Bay Area.

    Telford’s stocks an impressive amount of inventory from in-house pipe tobacco blends to the largest names in the cigar industry. Fun fact: Telford’s was the first Davidoff appointed merchant in Northern California. Unfortunately, Telford’s does not have an e-commerce website, but if they have what you’re looking for, they can process your order over the phone and ship it directly to you.

    I can’t thank Brian Telford enough; thank you for your time and allowing me to share your business with the world.
