The Gurkha Royal Courtesan Cigar is the most expensive cigar. The Royal Courtesan by Gurkha is well-known throughout the smoking world for being the only cigar with a seven-figure price tag (per cigar, not per box). Gurkha Cigars manufactures nearly 12 million cigars per year, including the Royal Courtesan. It is the most expensive cigar in the world, costing $1.36 million per stick, and it is quite impressive.
Each cigar is handcrafted in the Dominican Republic and Honduras and filled with a rare Himalayan tobacco that has been watered with Fiji water. It is then wrapped in a gold leaf held by a five-carat diamond-studded band before being infused with Remy Martin's Black Pearl Louis XIII (which costs $224,000 per bottle).
To avoid distraction, all of its artisans are required to work blindfolded. This cigar is so valuable that whenever one is ordered, a personal messenger wearing white gloves hand-delivers it to its new owner (and, no doubt, an expression of the strictest solemnity).
Price: $1.36 Million/Cigar

These cigars' half-million-dollar price tag is likely to rise over time. The Mayan Sicar has incredible historical significance, and they are important pieces of antiquity in addition to cigars. They were invented during the Mayan civilization and are the world's oldest cigars, dating back 600 years. Scientists discovered this 600-year-old hand-rolled cigar off the coast of Guatemala in 2012. It was sealed and buried beneath a Mayan cave. The history of this cigar is fascinating.
A total of 800 cigars were auctioned off for $507,000 to a New York aficionado. These cigars are thought to have originated in the Maya civilization. The Mayans were known to have an exquisite taste in tobacco and began manufacturing cigars in the 12th century.
This incredible cigar costs a whopping $507,000 per box. These ancient artifacts are only available to one person. Gary Liotta, the owner of the Santiago Cigar Factory and an avid collector of smoking memorabilia, paid $507,000 for the entire box of 12 cigars.
Price: $507,000/Box

Many of the prices on this list are for an entire box of cigars. A single Regius Double Corona Cigar, on the other hand, was sold in 2013 for $52,785.20 big ones to Callum Jones, a businessman and ambitiously luxurious smoker. This makes it one of the most expensive cigars. Technically, this medium-bodied premium cigar is available in three luxury cigar shops: Nat Sherman on 5th Avenue in New York, Mandarin Oriental in Hong Kong, and Davidoff in London.
There are also other factors that influence the price of this cigar. Along with the cigar, the buyer receives 1,000 smaller custom-rolled cigars, a tour of Regius' Nicaraguan factory, creating their own blend and the opportunity to name a new cigar line. But it all starts with that single cigar purchase. It was last recorded that this package was purchased by Callum Jones in 2013. Few cigar enthusiasts are willing to pay $52,785.20 for this.

King of Denmark Cigar is ranked sixth in the list of the most expensive cigars on the planet. The Danish Crown Prince Royal Danish Cigars have a length of 9 inches. Only a king could afford to pay $4,500 for a single cigar, so the secret blend was created. Their main selling point is that they can be personalized for each buyer who is willing to pay $4,500 per cigar. This is only the starting point. Buyers can increase the value of their cigars by adding gold foil to the wrapper and adorning the cigar with diamonds and precious metals.
Some of the cigars on this list will be accompanied by lavish, limited-edition humidors, further increasing their value. The humidors for King of Denmark cigars include a sculpted sterling silver crown plated in 24-karat gold that can be used as individual cigar holders. The humidor and crown will cost an additional $8,500 to the buyer.

Gurkha Black Dragon Cigars first became available in 2006. They are limited edition and difficult to obtain. These cigars are presented in a camel bone chest.
Black Dragon cigars are a rare find, made from Honduras tobacco by Gurkha, the Dominican Republic's cigar artisan manufacturer. They're peaty, sold in boxes of 100, and marketed to luxury smoking collectors. Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro is used to make the wrapper. Each cigar comes in a frosted tube. It is then placed in an orange-layered leather box.
Each cigar has a unique flavor that can range from sour to sweet in a split second. This is one of Gurkha's most coveted ultra-premium cigars. It has been perfectly aged and is combined with a 5-year aged filler. This cigar is made from the finest tobacco available and is rolled in Honduras. When you do the math, each of these 8.5-inch cigars costs $1,150.
Collector cigars are valuable not only for the tobacco, cover, and flavor, but also for the box. The handcrafted camel bone cigar box that houses the Black Dragon cigars adds a lot of value.

Gurkha His Majesty’s Reserve is made every year, and if you are a cigar enthusiast, you should definitely preorder them a few years in advance. The 18-year-old tobacco used in Gurkha's luxury cigar line, His Majesty's Reserve, has an insanely full-bodied flavor. Those who have tried one, which costs $750 per piece or $14,750 per box, say it has a deep flavor on the exhale that is similar to dark chocolate. A sweet nuttiness from the Louis XIII Cognac in which the leaves are steeped is another undertone.
Each cigar measures 7-5 x 52 inches in total. The Connecticut Maduro wrapper is paired with a Dominican binder and filler that have been aged for up to 12 years before being worthy of His Majesty's Reserve. The filler is infused with Louis XIII cognac, giving it a wonderful aroma. This cigar is extremely rare and special, and the cognac is known for selling only to dignitaries around the world.
Because only 75 boxes are made each year, their rarity (and reputation) has only grown since their debut. The incredible aroma, as well as the taste of the cigar, will leave an impression on you that you will never forget.
Price: $750/Cigar
