Davidoff Winston Churchill The Late Hour Petit Panatela

Winston Churchill was famous for working and writing late into the night. When the world fell quiet, he would often craft speeches and books with a cigar by his side. The Davidoff Late Hour series pays homage to this habit—a blend specifically curated for evening reflection and relaxation.

The blend features an Ecuadorian Habano Oscuro wrapper, a Mexican San Andrés Negro binder, and a filler composed of Dominican Olor, Piloto, and San Vicente, alongside Nicaraguan Condega and Estelí leaves. The Condega leaves are aged in Scotch single malt whisky casks, imparting a unique peaty and oaky character to the cigar. The Petit Panatela is the series' compact size, offering the same complex flavor profile with a mixed-leaf filler, perfect for those moments when time is limited but a full-bodied experience is desired.

The Davidoff Winston Churchill The Late Hour Petit Panatela opens with notes of espresso and black pepper, gradually transitioning into nuances of dark chocolate, leather, and the subtle sweetness derived from the whisky cask aging. Its compact format allows the flavors to intensify and unfold rapidly—a refined masterpiece crafted for the late hours.

Size and Blend

The Three Acts of Flavor

First Third: Cold draw reveals woody notes with a hint of sweetness. Upon lighting, the smoke is smooth; espresso and black pepper emerge immediately, accompanied by the warmth of oak, creating a compact and layered opening.

Second Third: The flavors unfold rapidly. Dark chocolate becomes more pronounced as leather and the subtle character of whisky cask aging quietly follow, with traces of pepper and wood still present. The mouthfeel is rich and the smoke is plentiful, with a profile that is both concentrated and balanced.

Final Third: The stability is well-maintained toward the end. The presence of pepper and coffee intensifies, leading to a clean finish marked by notes of dark chocolate and wood. The overall experience is short yet profoundly memorable.
