Our Master Tobacconist Experience

Our staff has long recommended the Yamasa line as one of Davidoff’s most distinctive and rewarding series, and the Toro consistently stands out for its generous proportions and flawless performance. The cold draw teases cedar, toasted almonds, and faint sweet spice. Upon lighting, the first third opens with prominent cedar, roasted almonds, cream, leather hints, and mild white pepper on the retrohale, delivering a smooth, balanced start with exceptional draw. Moving into the second third, the profile deepens beautifully with richer notes of dark cocoa, honey sweetness, toasted oak, and sustained nuttiness as the Dominican tobaccos reveal seamless layers. The final third builds smoothly to intensified leather, espresso-like boldness, woody earth, lingering sweet spice, and a long, refined finish that holds strong to the nub. This medium-full, 70 to 90 minute smoke offers impeccable burn, firm ash, and consistent layered sophistication throughout.
