davidoffsalmonesFor your December cigar gift-giving needs, Davidoff has come out with something new and pricey. The Davidoff Royal Salomones have a 21-centimeter, extralong Salomones format with a 57 ring gauge. It has a slightly bulbous shape at the cigar's lower end. Only the four best Davidoff cigar rollers are put to work creating the cigar in the factory at Villa Gonzalez, in the Dominican Republic. The cigars use a blend of seven tobaccos which are fermented and matured for at least seven years. The binder leaf and filler tobaccos originate from the Dominican Republic and are grown in the Cibao Valley. The cigar is a medium strength smoke with a full rich flavor. The cigars come in a box of 50 which is made of mahogany wood with cedar wood trays. The cigar is available in a limited edition starting this month. I haven't heard any word on official pricing but rumors earlier this year put the price at around $2,000 a box.

Bugatti -- the name alone conjures luxurious dreams but when paired with Hermes it just might make your head spin! Together they make a beautiful couple in one sexy car -- the Bugatti Veyron Fbg by Hermes. With the "H" logo on all four wheels and "Hermes" engraved on the fuel door it might sound a bit ostentatious but when it costs more than $2 million what kind of harm do a couple of extra labels really do. Seen at the Geneva 2008 Motor Show I'm sure it turned plenty of heads... for more ogling see the photos below.
