Year of the Snake

DAVIDOFF YEAR OF THE SNAKE

LIMITED EDITION 2025

The Year of the Snake Limited Edition 2025 heralds a new beginning in Davidoff's annual Chinese New Year celebrations. The exclusive release introduces a number of novelties to honour the Year of the Snake, crafted to captivate and delight the most discerning aficionados.

ELEGANCE UNCOILED

Graceful and elegant on the outside, the Snake is known for their passionate and energetic nature. The Snake embraces the vibrant energy of yellow in 2025, enhancing their intuition for unparalleled success.

The balance of the Snake’s powerful personality is reflected in the cigar’s blend, format and taste. As you glide through the smooth and dynamic flavours of lemon, leather and coffee, wrapped in an intriguing creaminess, the Snake’s inspiring character is revealed with every puff.

TASTE EXPERIENCE

LANCERO FORMAT

The long and slender lancero format pays homage to the shape of a snake. Its taste profile is quite unusual and a novelty for a Davidoff cigar: With flavours of lemon, leather and coffee, the limited-edition cigar is ideal to mark the special occasion of Lunar New Year.

Especially the Dominican San Vicente and the Mexican Negro San Andres filler tobaccos, which are both known to stimulate the areas on the palate responsible for sour and salty sensations, drive the fresh and lemony notes without ever overpowering the palate.

LANCERO FORMAT

A definite must-have for aficionados who want to acquire the first cigar and its premium box of Davidoff's new cycle of products around a Chinese zodiac.

PRESENTATION OF THE LIMITED EDITION

A PERFECT GIFT FOR A CIGAR COLLECTOR

The Year of the Snake Limited Edition 2025 comes in a wooden box of ten, which, like the Snake, is elegant, graceful and serene on the outside, but leaves the excitement inside for those who want to explore.

A removable wooden frame adds to the excitement of unboxing and the novelties inside: each box includes a removable, numbered collector’s coin.

The packaging has been given a new design concept as a first step towards a more circular approach, abstaining from materials such as difficult-to-recycle plastic.

LUCKY PAIRINGS FOR THE SNAKE CIGARS

As yellow is one of the Snake’s lucky colours, those born in the Year of the Snake are advised to incorporate the colour into their daily lives. With its fruity notes, the Year of the Snake cigar is the perfect accompaniment to yellow drinks. 

YELLOW BIRD COCKTAIL

This refreshing drink, made with rum, herbs and orange liquor, lime juice and orange juice, pairs well with the lemony notes at the start of the cigar. The leather and coffee flavours that make an appearance in the second and the last third also complement the citrus and fruit notes of the cocktail.

LEMON GINGER TEA

In this combination, the lemon, leather and coffee notes of the cigar complement the refreshing taste of a tea made with lemon, fresh ginger, hot water and honey. The ginger in the tea continuously cleanses the palate for a unique stimulation.

The artwork for the Masterpiece was designed by Feifei Chen, a Chinese illustrator, and translated into a captivating marquetry by the French artist Mariane Léger.
