Davidoff Escurio Petit Robusto

Description

The Davidoff Escurio Petit Robusto is a refined yet powerful cigar from the Escurio line by Davidoff, crafted to deliver rich flavour and sophistication in a compact form. Hand-made in the Dominican Republic with tobaccos from Brazil, the Dominican Republic and Ecuador, this cigar blends elegance with intensity.

Despite its short 3¼″ length (≈83 mm), the ring gauge of 50 gives it substance and depth, making it an excellent choice when time is limited but quality matters.

Why Choose the Escurio Petit Robusto

• Delivers the complexity and premium craftsmanship of the Escurio line in a short format — ideal when time is limited but you still want a high-quality cigar.

• Uses exotic tobaccos (Brazilian binder/filler + Ecuadorian wrapper) which gives it distinct flavour character compared to more common blends.

• Excellent construction and reputation: consistent draw, good burn, and premium performance.

• Versatile for both casual enjoyment and more serious tasting sessions — a strong pick if you want luxury in less time.

Serving & Pairing Suggestions

• Pair with: A well-balanced espresso or medium-bodied whisky — the flavour profile of vanilla, coffee and wood matches beautifully.

• Storage: Keep in a humidor at ~65-70% relative humidity and ~18-21 °C for optimal preservation.

• Smoking tips: Because it’s a short format with a relatively large ring gauge (50), draw slowly and steadily so you can savour the full spectrum of flavours without overheating.

• Occasion: Perfect for a quality break when you don’t have time for a long smoke but want premium flavour.
