Finding the right cigar for you is always an exciting adventure. But finding those rare gems? That could be a tad bit exhausting and frustrating. These “unicorns” of the cigar industry may be so hard to find because they’re collected privately and remain in the small circles of the cigar industry.

Lucky for you, we put together a remarkable list of cigars that aren’t available in your everyday brick and mortar stores. This week’s Top 5 list covers those cigars that are the hardest to get your hands on. Don’t forget our limited sampler is available right here!

In 1998, a devastating Hurricane swept through the famous Chateau de la Fuente farm, putting production at a major standstill and destroyed all the tobacco that was to be used for the wrapper. This may be the result as to why most cigars under the Arturo Fuente brand are becoming the most sought-after cigars on the market. Alongside the Opus X, the Añejo No. 49 is another stick under the Fuente catalog that is extremely hard to get your hands on.

Born out of the hurricane that swept through the Fuente Farm, was a stunning, oily Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper that’s aged in oak cognac barrels. The No. 49 also has the same binder and wrapper that is used in the Opus X. This full-bodied stick has rare and savory flavor notes that aren’t hard to pinpoint while you’re smoking the Añejo No. 49 by Arturo Fuente.

In 2012, a new up and coming cigar company Crowned Heads released their first limited edition cigar known as Four Kicks Mule Kick. With only 5,000 boxes available of the LE 2012, the line would disappear until 2017. When the Mule Kick LE 2018 came out there were only 2,000 boxes produced, making it even more limited and hard to get than the original stick that was released in 2012.

This beautiful smoke is cloaked in a Connecticut Habano wrapper, which is typically an E.P. Carrillo TAA Exclusive. The LE 2018 is a Medium to Full-Bodied cigar that is Bound and Filled with Nicaraguan tobaccos. Jon Huber, the founder of Crowned Heads, has gone on to proudly state that this limited-edition cigar has surpassed the level of expectations and quality in ways he never dreamed of. Now, all we can hope for is that he’s in the midst of creating the Four Kicks Mule Kick LE for 2020.

Almost every cigar to come out of the My Father Factory is always something spectacular that doesn’t disappoint, and that’s what we have with the L’Atelier Cote d’Or La Tache. This line debuted at the 2014 PCA, formerly known as IPCPR trade show and blew retailers away. “Cote d’Or” has two meanings. “Gold Coast” is one meaning and the other is the ever so popular growing region in France where famous Burgundy wine hails from.

The La Tache has a unique Ecuador Sancti Spiritu wrapper, with a binder and fillers from Nicaragua. This flavorful medium-bodied smoke has mouthwatering notes of Cocoa, Espresso, Wood, and a hint of Pepper. This stick is so special because the tobacco used for all L’Altelier lines are exclusive to Pete Johnson and the My Father Factory. We recommend you trying this cigar as soon as you can. You just may need a little help trying to get your hands on one of these rare smokes.

The La Aurora Preferidos Ruby pays tribute to Don Eduardo Leon Jimenes, founder of the very first cigar factory in the Dominican Republic. The Perfecto shape of the Ruby was the first size to ever be created on the companies rolling table. This is the essence of a luxury cigar, with over 100 years of experience, it’s quite noticeable with the La Aurora Preferidos Ruby.

With a reddish hue, the Brazilian Sungrown wrapper gives off, what other named besides “Ruby” would be more fitting? This Medium to Full Bodied cigar has a binder and filler from the Dominican Republic. A mixture of sweet and spicy flavor notes flow through this 5 x 54 figurado stick. I highly recommend that you enjoy a part of cigar history by smoking the elegant La Aurora Preferidos Ruby.

Michael Rosales and Skip Martin of RoMa Craft are known for creating limited products with the “one-off” series they produce every once in a blue moon. So naturally, that’s what makes the CroMagnon Breuil such a hard cigar to get your hands on. While there are a plethora of different sizes under the CroMagnon line, the CroMagnon Breuil only released two each of the Brueil in a 50 count sampler pack mixed with CroMagnon and Intemperance cigars from RoMa Craft.

Drenched in a Broadleaf wrapper, the CroMagnon Breuil has a Cameroon binder and fillers from Nicaragua. The Breuil is full in strength and smokes perfectly in the Panatela size. Flavor notes that hit your palate as you smoke the RoMa Craft CroMagnon Breuil are chocolate, earth tones, and espresso. If you come across the RoMa Craft CroMagnon Breuil, do us all a favor and get your hands on it as soon as possible. It’s totally worth the investment.
