As the premium cigar industry prepares for the 2026 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, Cavalier Genève Cigars has announced a new release commemorating its 10-year milestone.
The Project 10th Anniversary cigar will be introduced as part of the brand’s broader plans for 2026, with availability expected to begin shortly after PCA26.
A Milestone Release Built Around a Single Blend
The anniversary release will be offered in a single 6.25 x 52 parejo format and packaged in 14-count boxes featuring an alternating presentation of claro and darker-wrapped cigars. While the wrappers differ in appearance and processing, both cigars share the same underlying blend, with the variation driven by wrapper primings and fermentation techniques.
At the core of the blend is a multi-origin composition anchored by a Habano Jalapa binder and Habano Jamastran wrappers—presented in both claro and oscuro variations—over a complex filler structure that includes eight tobaccos spanning seco, viso, and ligero primings. These tobaccos are sourced from multiple regions, including Honduras, Nicaragua, Paraguay, and India, contributing to the cigar’s layered profile.
The cigars are expected to begin shipping in May or June 2026, with pricing to be disclosed at PCA26.
Limited Production Window for 2026
Production of the Project 10th Anniversary cigar is scheduled to run through December 2026, after which the release will be discontinued. This places the product within a defined availability window for retailers.
The cigars are produced at the company’s Fabrica Centroamericana de Tabaco S.A. (FCT) facility in Danlí, Honduras, where Cavalier Genève now oversees its manufacturing operations.
Looking Ahead to PCA26
The anniversary release is expected to be one of several announcements from Cavalier Genève Cigars tied to its 10-year celebration. Additional projects are anticipated throughout 2026.
Retailers attending PCA26 (April 17–20, New Orleans) can expect to see more details on this release, including final pricing, as well as any additional initiatives from the brand.
