Oettinger Davidoff is adding a new line to its Zino portfolio with the introduction of Zino Honduras, a blend centered on Honduran tobaccos and designed to offer a different profile from the existing Zino Nicaragua line.
The release follows the 2021 relaunch of the Zino brand, which helped establish the Nicaragua line among consumers. With this latest addition, the company is aiming to provide an option that leans more heavily into Honduran characteristics while maintaining the brand’s overall approach.
Zino Honduras uses tobacco from the Jamastrán Valley and the Copán region, finished with an Ecuadorian wrapper. According to the company, the blend focuses on balancing the spicier elements of Jamastrán tobacco with the sweeter and more earthy qualities found in Copán-grown leaves.
The flavor profile is described as offering notes of rosewood, orange, and cream, with a medium level of intensity. The new line is positioned as distinct from Zino Nicaragua while still fitting within the broader portfolio.
“We are delighted to be launching Zino Honduras to meet the rising demand for more intense cigars,” said Javier González, SVP Head Global Marketing & Innovation at Oettinger Davidoff. “The high quality of these handmade cigars, combined with the enhanced flexibility and spontaneity offered through innovative packaging and cut options, truly sets this line apart and reflects what Zino Cigars stands for as a brand.”
The cigars will be offered in three sizes: Half Corona (4″ x 44), Robusto (5″ x 54), and Toro (6″ x 50). Packaging options include traditional boxes as well as tins, packs, and fresh packs. Some of the fresh pack formats will feature pre-cut cigars, a first for the Zino line.
Zino Honduras is scheduled to begin shipping to retailers on June 26, 2026, with an early preview planned during the Premium Cigar Association trade show in April.
