Cigars & Luxury: A Look at High-End Cigars & Accessories

Cigars and luxury go hand-in-hand. For centuries, cigars have been associated with opulence, wealth, and “the good life.” Indeed, some of the finest cigars and accessories on the market are crafted with the luxury lifestyle in mind. And today, that’s what we’re going to cover. Check out some of our favorite high-end cigars, pairings, and accessories that are worth indulging in. 

What is a Luxury Cigar?

There is no standard definition of a “luxury cigar.” Rather, the cigar industry tends to designate any cigar as premium if it’s 1) hand-rolled and 2) features long-filler tobacco. 

However, certain cigars clearly transcend what most would consider a “typical” smoking experience. Often, these are limited-edition cigars, but that’s not always the case. 

The Best Luxury Cigars

Yes, it’s fair to call these special occasion cigars.

Cohiba Spectre (2025) — SRP $150 per Cigar

The newest offering in the legendary Spectre series, Cohiba Spectre 2025 features a remarkable blend highlighted by a lush Havana Connecticut (USA) 2017 wrapper. To create Spectre, Cohiba enlists a single artisan to roll and one to bunch each cigar to ensure the highest quality possible. This limited-edition showstopper is available in a single size (Toro) and is a classic example of what a luxury cigar should be. 

Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Edición Doble Diamante — SRP $150 per Cigar

Rated 95 by Cigar Aficionado, the 1935 Anniversary Edición from Montecristo is a Nicaraguan puro of immense quality. Complex yet rewarding, this beautiful cigar delivers an unforgettable smoking experience defined by notes of caramel, spice, and cinnamon.

Davidoff Anniversario No. 1 Limited Edition (2023) — $64 per Cigar

Davidoff is a famous name in the cigar industry, in part because of cigars like the No. 1 Limited Edition. This is a massive cigar at 8 ⅔ inches long, but it is notably elegant and smooth despite its large size. Cloaked in an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade, it’s a great representation of a special occasion smoke.
