Griffin's Classic

Griffin's Classic

The mythical creature of the Griffin inspired these premium cigars and also adorns the elegant, white cigar band. Manufactured and distributed by Oettiger/Davidoff, these cigars are also produced by Henrik Kelner, the creator of Davidoff. The Griffin is the emblem of the Griffin's Club in Geneva, founded by Bernard Grobet. The cigar enthusiast and club owner had these cigars exclusively made for his club since 1984. They became so popular that they were eventually sold internationally beyond Geneva and Switzerland.

Griffin's Classic is one of the most well-known brands from the Dominican Republic. Offering a very mild taste and recommended as an entry-level cigar, it consists of three different types of tobacco with a typical Connecticut wrapper. The Classic provides mild cigars with very subtle and balanced flavors. All formats in this series are characterized by a typically herbal taste with slightly creamy and sweet notes. Excellently crafted with an excellent draw – just like all products from the house of Davidoff!

The previously manufactured Griffin's Fuerte cigars were completely discontinued around 2010. The Maduro variant was also discontinued in Germany, but it remains available in the USA. In the autumn of 2015, the new Griffin's Nicaragua cigars were released, which further underscored Nicaragua's significant rise as a cigar-producing country.
