They're coasting on their laurels. Assuming the numbers are accurate. At some point the quality dip is going to catch up with them. 4
REesq Posted July 4 Posted July 4 I don't smoke many NCs, but Davidoff is one that I've had over the years with pretty constant, favorable results. The ones I've had over the past year or two, however, have been generally underwhelming. Not bad, but not memorable.

I really wish I'd bought more before they went downhill. Older production is still excellent, if you can find it. Newer production ranges from still good to kinda meh to genuinely awful. At their price point, it's a bad gamble. 1
Christophe Posted July 4 Posted July 4 When I'm at a particular cigar shop (and Habanos specialist) that carries them, I see a fair amount of people buying Zino and Camacho, while I have the feeling their Davidoff stock barely moves at all. I think I've had one Zino in my life, and I don't recall it being very good. Maybe some people beg to differ for the price.

Dadof3 Posted July 5 Posted July 5 If they are private, who knows what the numbers represent? They could be massaged to show a favorable result.
