The Davidoff Oro Blanco Cigars will remain restricted because once this month's supplies are sold, there won't be any cigars jumping to replace them.

Davidoff’s Oro Blanco is a lot of things, but for better or worse, it is probably best known for being “the $500 Davidoff.” While the price tag gets immense attention, the cigar should be remembered for another first for the company—Eladio Diaz’s signature is, precisely, all over the release. While Diaz has worked as Davidoff’s primary blender for years, Davidoff has presented Henke Kelner as the face of its production operations. It’s a team effort at Davidoff. As far as the separation is concerned, the basic version is that Kelner handles the growing operations, while Diaz oversees blending and rolling. It was Kelner explaining the Davidoff 100 and Diademas Finas, Kelner doing tours for the launch of Puro d’Oro, and Kelner once again explaining the blend of the new Winston Churchill earlier this month in New York City. But Oro Blanco is Diaz’s cigar. Its name translates into white gold. Diaz said he was motivated to create a cigar after watching the sunset in the city of Mao, located in the northwestern area of the Dominican Republic. He said he looked back on experiences, starting in 1988 when Zino Davidoff was looking for a new place to make cigars after being unhappy with the performance of Cuban-made Davidoffs. The company's master blender, Eladio Diaz, will only allow more to be released once the tobacco is deemed suitable and ready, meaning that Oro Blanco will remain restricted because once this month's supplies are sold, there won't be any cigars jumping to replace them. The price hasn't been released just yet, but Davidoff assures that the tobacco is aged for 12 years and grown only in the richest soils where three rivers meet in the Mao zone in the Dominican Republic.
