Davidoff Grand Cru No. 5

The little petit corona of Davidoff's Grand Cru line — a quick 30-minute smoke with the same smooth, nutty Dominican character.

When you only have half an hour, the Grand Cru No. 5 is the answer. At 4 inches by a 41 ring gauge, it's the smallest member of the Grand Cru family, but it carries every bit of the line's polish in a short, satisfying format.

What it tastes like

Don't let the size fool you — the Ecuador Connecticut wrapper and aged Dominican fillers still serve up cream, hazelnut, cedar, and toasted bread with a light spice finish. It's a mild-to-medium smoke that stays smooth and balanced the whole way. Small cigars can burn hot and bitter when they're poorly made; Davidoff's construction keeps this one cool and elegant.

Who it's for

This is the ideal "coffee break" cigar for someone who already enjoys the Grand Cru blend, or for a newer smoker who wants a refined, low-commitment smoke. Keep a few around for when a full corona is too much time.

If you love this and want to linger longer, step up to the Davidoff Grand Cru No. 3 or the fuller Davidoff Grand Cru Robusto. For tips on keeping a small cigar fresh, see how to store cigars without a humidor, then log it in the Casa DNC app.
