Griffins Cigars

The Gryphon (also spelled Griffin) is a legendary mythical creature that has the head and wings of an eagle, but the body of a lion. It’s history goes as far back as Ancient Egypt, and remained prevalent through the Ancient Greeks, who cite the Gryphon in many tales. The Ancient Greek poet Aristeas wrote about Gryphons and Herodotus, the “father of Modern History”. He also wrote of the Gryphons being protectors of Zeus. Many medieval coat of arms feature Gryphons as the charge on the shield, which was a powerful symbol for whoever owned such an instrument of war. Some say that the Gryphon was used to instill fear upon the opponents horses. Gryphons have also been mentioned in such classic literature as Dante’s The Divine Comedy, Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland, The Chronicles of Narnia and The Marvelous Land of Oz. In recent history, they have also played a major role in the Harry Potter series, as well as the Spiderwick Chronicles. In fact, Busch Gardens in Williamsburg opened a roller coaster in May, 2007 called The Griffon, which is not only the world’s tallest dive machine coaster, but the world’s fastest dive machine coaster as well.

Griffin’s cigars are shrouded in the same mystique that has surrounded the Gryphon. These delicious, mild cigars use tobacco plants that have been harvested in the Cibao Valley in the Dominican Republic. The Cibao Valley is the most fertile location in the Dominican Republic, and the tradition of tobacco cultivation has been existent for over five hundred years. Griffin’s cigars are produced at the Davidoff factory by legendary master-blender Hendrik Kelner. Each cigar is carefully hand-rolled to ensure the same quality in every stick. Griffin’s cigars use a luscious Connecticut wrapper that has undergone strict quality control as well. Griffin’s cigars come in three different lines besides their limited edition cigars which have been released throughout the years. Just like any other cigar line found at BestCigarPrices.com, if there is a Griffin cigar that you would like that we do not carry, do not hesitate to give us a call and let us know.

The Griffin’s Maduro cigar maintains the same quality of the Griffin’s Classic, but instead uses an aged Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper. The word Maduro, which actually means mature and ripe in Spanish, demands more attention than the regular Natural Connecticut wrapper.

For those of you looking for a full-bodied cigar that’s going to knock your socks off, the Griffin’s Maduro cigar is not it.

The third cigar in the Griffin’s cigar line is the Griffin’s Fuerte cigar, which is currently only offered in a handful of sizes. The Griffin’s Fuerte cigar come in attractive wooden boxes of ten, and they are the strongest, and most flavorsome cigars in the Griffin’s cigar arsenal. Using a special tobacco blend composed exclusively of different Ligero tobaccos, the Griffin’s Fuerte is not a cigar for the novice smoker. The extra sunshine that Ligero leaves receive, as well as the careful curing, fermentation and ripening of the leaves allow for them to maintain a spicy-full bodied flavor that is hard to pass up.
