Davidoff Genève officially unveiled its first-ever Exclusive Edition dedicated to Vietnam on 30th March, marking a significant milestone in the brand’s global journey and its deepening relationship with the Vietnamese cigar community.
The launch event, held at the Habanos Specialist Flagship Ho Chi Minh, brought together distinguished guests and senior leadership from Davidoff Genève across Switzerland and Asia. Among the esteemed attendees were Mr. Beat Hauenstein, CEO of Davidoff Genève, and Mr. Javier González, SVP Head of Global Marketing & Innovation.
Representing Davidoff of Geneva Asia were Mr. Laurent De Rougemont, Managing Director; Ms. Melissa Anwar, Regional Sales and Marketing Director; and Mr. Au Kwok Kee Benny, Business Development & Wholesale Director.
Their presence underscored the importance of Vietnam as a growing market and highlighted the enduring partnership between Davidoff Genève and its strategic partners in Vietnam — Golden Phoenix Vietnam and Avanti-Group.
Limited to just 300 boxes, the Davidoff Exclusive Edition 2026 Vietnam celebrates both the remarkable rise of cigar culture in Vietnam and five years of successful collaboration in the country.
Presented in an elegant Perfecto format (6 1/8 x 53), the cigar carries symbolic meaning beyond its craftsmanship. Its refined silhouette evokes the delicate petal of the lotus — Vietnam’s national flower — representing purity, resilience, and timeless beauty. This design reflects Davidoff’s philosophy of harmony, passion, and meticulous artistry.
Each of the 300 numbered boxes contains ten Perfecto cigars and is adorned with lotus-inspired motifs and symbols of harmony, conveying wishes of prosperity and good fortune to Vietnamese aficionados and collectors. With such limited availability, the edition is poised to become a rare collectible.
The blend features a sophisticated composition of tobaccos sourced from the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Nicaragua, and the United States, delivering a refined, distinct smoking experience. The profile evolves gracefully from creamy and herbal notes at the foot, into a richer heart of cocoa and earth, before finishing with fresh spice and cedar wood at the head — a layered journey that reflects both complexity and harmony.
“The Davidoff Exclusive Editions embody our commitment to creating exceptional cigars tailored to individual markets and their unique stories,” said Javier González, SVP Head of Global Marketing & Innovation at Oettinger Davidoff. “This release showcases not only our blending expertise and craftsmanship, but also the strong relationships and shared passion that inspire this unique creation.”
The Davidoff Exclusive Edition 2026 Vietnam is available exclusively at Avanti-Group boutique stores in Vietnam, including Habanos Specialist Flagship Ho Chi Minh, 23–25 Hai Ba Trung St., Saigon Ward.
