What is The Connoisseur's Book of the Cigar about?
If you smoke cigars, and are interested in the history of this fine hobby, Zino Davidoff needs no preamble. This book is full of anecdotes, advice, and humour by a name all but unmatched in cigars. You need this book. Even in translation the wit, poetry, and philosophy of this man still communicates. First published in 1967, it contains but the briefest of hints about what the Castro cigar market would Davidoff admits to other countries making good cigars, but to him, the Havana is king. I wrote down about fifty great quotes out of this book, and half remember about fifty more I'll catch on my next read through. If it can be faulted, it is for two Davidoff's personal preference of Havanas is communicated as objective superiority, and, at 92 pages, it is too short of a book. This book has given me many phrases with which to describe our hobby, and you need this book.
