On June 10, 1987, Davidoff opened up its first store in America, located on Madison Ave. in New York City.

Next week, the company will pay tribute to 30 years in America at an event with a special cigar. The Davidoff Madison Ave 30th Anniversary is a 6 x 52 toro with a Dominican wrapper, Ecuadorian habano 2000 binder and a variety of Dominican fillers: Damajagua visos, Jicome ligero, piloto seco, San Vicente mejorado viso and Yamasá viso.

It’s described as a medium-full or “a more mature version of the Madison 25th Anniversary.

The Davidoff Madison 30th Anniversary will debut next Wednesday at an event in the store with Davidoff’s Hendrik “Henke” Kelner.

Pricing is set at $26 or $260 per box of 10. Production is limited to 600 boxes and the company plans to also sell the cigar at other Davidoff flagship stores and the company’s e-commerce platform.

Update (Sept. 28, 2017) — The size is 6 x 52, not 6 x 62 as originally stated in the press release and article.
