Dubbed the Royal Release, the line consists of two different vitolas: a 5 1/2 x 55 Robusto and an 8 1/4 x 57 Salomones, both of which are packaged in 10-count lacquer boxes with a royal blue color scheme. The violas are the same as the previously released Royal Robusto and Royal Salomones, but incorporate a completely different blend, notably an exclusive Aromatica Dominicana wrapper that has been aged for a minimum of eight years instead of the Ecuadorian wrapper that was used on the original cigars.
According to Davidoff, there are only eight rollers who work on the Royal Release cigars, each of which has at least 15 years experience.
Pricing is set at $80 for the Royal Release Robusto while the Royal Release Salomones carries an MSRP of $100, each vitola is limited to just 500 boxes of 10 for the U.S. market.
