Winston Churchill Raconteur – 2016 Limited Edition is Shipping Jan. 21

The Winston Churchill Raconteur is packaged in a 10 ct. box and is a 2016 Limited Edition. The Raconteur has a secondary band inscribed with some of Winston Churchill’s famous witticisms.  Davidoff  of Geneva begins shipping The Raconteur to Anthony’s Cigar Emporium on Jan. 21, 2016. The Winston Churchill Raconteur 2016 LE is slightly modified version of the standard Winston Churchill blend. The Raconteur 2016 LE uses an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper compared to the Ecuadorian Rojiza wrapper on the regular production Winston Churchill. While they both use a Mexican San Andrés negro binder and a combination of Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers, The Raconteur features a 15-year-old vintage Dominican San Vicente ligero alongside the piloto visos, hybrid olor/piloto visos, piloto seco and Nicaraguan ligero from Estelí and seco from Condega that comprise the regular production Winston Churchill.  The Winston Churchill Raconteur is slightly more complex and fuller bodied than the robust and deeply satisfying Winston Churchill.  All Winston Churchill fans should get their hands on a box of The Winston Churchill Raconteur 2016 LE while they last.  Davidoff has not made the exact production numbers publicly available, but The Raconteur is limited to the suplly of 15 year old San Vicente Ligero.

From a Davidoff press release: “When talking to his great-grandson, Randolph Churchill, I discovered that Sir Winston had written as much as Shakespeare and Dickens put together.  This Limited Edition honours one of the most dazzling raconteurs and prolific writers the world has ever known,” said Charles Awad, svp of global marketing and innovation for Oettinger Davidoff AG, in a press release.
