Yes. DAVTIAN Premium Cigars are handmade by experienced cigar professionals using traditional production methods.The construction of a premium cigar requires careful bunching, rolling, wrapper application, inspection and finishing. Each stage affects the cigar’s draw, combustion, appearance, aroma and overall consistency.

It means that production decisions are guided by quality rather than volume.Premium tobacco must be properly selected, prepared and handled. A cigar must also be constructed with the correct proportions: an underfilled cigar may burn too quickly, while an overfilled cigar may be difficult to draw.DAVTIAN focuses on careful production, consistency and attention to detail rather than mass production.

David Davtian began working in the cigar industry as a retailer and international distributor in 2003. After years of practical industry experience and extensive study of tobacco and cigar production, he launched the DAVTIAN brand in the Dominican Republic in 2011.

A traditional premium cigar has three principal tobacco components:Wrapper: The outermost leaf and the most visible part of the cigar. It significantly influences the cigar’s appearance, aroma and flavor.Binder: The leaf beneath the wrapper that holds the filler together and supports the cigar’s structure and combustion.Filler: The tobacco leaves at the center of the cigar. The combination and positioning of these leaves help determine the cigar’s strength, complexity, aroma and burning characteristics.

DAVTIAN specializes in traditional, classic premium cigars. Our primary collection is not built around artificial flavoring or infusion.The character of a DAVTIAN cigar comes from the tobacco itself, including its origin, variety, fermentation, aging, blending and construction.
