While flavored cigars were originally introduced in the '60s to appeal to new smokers, many aficionados enjoy them, too. The various flavors available can provide seasoned smokers with a new and unique experience. New smokers can also enjoy an easier introduction to cigar smoking. 

But with so many options available, it can be hard to know which flavored cigar to choose. To make your decision easier, we've put together a list of the top 12 flavored cigars in 2026.

What Is a Flavored Cigar?

A flavored cigar is any cigar with additional infused flavors that the ingredients wouldn't naturally contain. These flavors can be added in several ways, but the most common methods are:

• Infusion: The cigar is placed in a room filled with ingredients of the desired flavor, such as chocolate or vanilla. Some of the best infused cigars are stored in barrels that contained spirits such as whiskey or bourbon. Over time, the cigar will absorb the flavor of the ingredients it's being exposed to. This method tends to create milder, more nuanced flavors.
• Spraying: The tobacco is sprayed with artificial flavored liquids. This method typically creates bolder and simpler flavors than infusion does. It's also a much faster method, meaning it can easily be used to mass-produce cigars.

Flavor is often added to the cigar's wrapper by applying flavored oils, too. Many flavored cigars will also have a sweetened tip to provide additional flavor. 

These methods allow manufacturers to produce cigars with flavors that otherwise couldn't be achieved. 

What Makes a Great Flavored Cigar?

Choosing your favorite cigars will depend on your own preferences, but a few factors can help guide your decision:

• Construction: To enjoy the flavors as the manufacturer intended, the cigar needs to be well-constructed.
• Price: The price of the cigar should match your budget and its true value. This means buying cigars that aren't out of your price range and aren't being sold by a vendor who has massively inflated the price.
• Consistency: Cigar lovers need to know that when they buy a certain cigar, it will deliver a consistent experience. This is particularly true for flavored cigars, as inconsistent flavors can reduce enjoyment.
• Tobacco quality: Some aficionados believe that flavor is only added to inferior tobacco. While this is untrue, some flavored cigars will be made with lower-quality tobacco, just as some non-flavored cigars will. Higher-quality tobacco will deliver a cleaner and more enjoyable taste.

The Top Chocolate- and Coffee-Flavored Cigars of 2026

From ice cream to spirits, chocolate and coffee are popular flavors across many consumer products, and cigars are no different. Here are the top chocolate- and coffee-flavored cigars in 2026.

1. Deadwood Crazy Alice

Renowned for creating some of the best flavored cigars in the world, Drew Estate hit the target with the Deadwood Crazy Alice. With a rich maduro wrapper and Nicaraguan tobacco filler, this medium to full-bodied cigar packs a punch. Despite its slightly unusual shape, the construction is flawless.

Soon after lighting the Crazy Alice, you'll quickly notice the sweetened tip, as well as the chocolate and dark coffee flavors. However, as the cigar burns down, it will grow in strength as the sweeter flavors give way to add an earthy, fruity flavor to the mix. With a smoking time of 45-60 minutes, the Crazy Alice has plenty to unpack each time you light one.

2. Java Mint

Crafted by Drew Estate and Rocky Patel, the Java Mint is a refreshingly cool cigar. With Nicaraguan binder, filler and origins, and completed with a Brazilian maduro wrapper, this medium-strength cigar provides a slow, even burn. Infused with chocolate, espresso and mint, there are few cigars like it. 

The mint flavoring of this cigar doesn't create an overpowering and artificial aroma. Instead, you'll smell the high-quality tobacco with a hint of mint before you light it, which adds to the experience. The Java Mint also has an irreproachable, box-pressed construction that impresses the second it comes out of the box. Upon lighting, the various flavors combine to deliver a bold profile.

3. Deadwood Broadleaf Sweet Jane Dia de los Muertos

First released in 2019, the Deadwood Broadleaf Sweet Jane Dia de los Muertos is a limited-edition cigar that commemorates the Day of the Dead. The cigar made a return in 2024, before making a consecutive reappearance in 2025. Drew Estate, which produces the cigar, hasn't confirmed whether there's any changes to the cigar from one year to the next.

However, it's not just its limited availability that makes this cigar so desirable. The Sweet Jane Dia de los Muertos is a smooth, medium-bodied cigar. Originating from Nicaragua, this cigar is crafted with Nicaraguan binder and filler before being finished with a dark Connecticut broadleaf wrapper. Each cigar is also adorned with bands in one of five colors, with its box matching that color, all to increase the festive feel of this celebratory cigar.

With notes of mocha, earth and spice, this is undoubtedly one of the top flavored cigars of the year. It burns slowly and evenly, and coupled with its mellow flavors, it's a perfect cigar to relax with. To enhance the experience of smoking a Sweet Jane Dia de los Muertos, enjoy it with a spiced rum or an iced chai tea.

4. Java Latte

Another result of the Rocky Patel and Drew Estate collaboration, the Java Latte cigars are often hailed as some of the best coffee-flavored cigars available on the market. Tasting of espresso, sweet cream and chocolate, this medium-strength cigar offers a chilled-out smoking experience. With a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper and Nicaraguan binder and filler, it's made with the finest ingredients to ensure the best possible experience. 

The Top Fruit-Flavored Cigars of 2026

Fruit flavors cover a wide range, and some are more popular than others. However, that doesn't stop cigar manufacturers from experimenting, either. Here are the top fruit-flavored cigars in 2026. 

5. Neos Natural Cherry

While some aficionados steer clear of cigarillos because of their shorter smoking time, the Neos Natural Cherry deserves its place on this list. While the shorter smoking time may make it ideal for new smokers, experienced smokers will appreciate the smooth burn and consistent flavors throughout.

Another thing to appreciate is that the Neos Natural Cherry takes the natural aspect to heart. Thanks to the expert infusion, this high-quality cigarillo smells and tastes like natural cherry, rather than an artificial recreation of the flavor. It also features a natural wrapper.

This mild cigarillo hails from Belgium. Budget-friendly and producing a pleasant-smelling smoke, the Neos Natural Cherry is the perfect after-dinner treat.

6. Asylum 13 Split Personality

While the Asylum 13 Split Personality's name was coined in honor of the banana split flavor this cigar was trying to replicate, it seems this cigar has split the community, too. While some don't care for this unique flavor, many love it. The fact that it so accurately replicates the promised banana split flavor is why this cigar made its way onto this list. 

This medium-strength cigar consists of a Honduran wrapper, binder and filler, and the flavors include banana, caramel and almond. It also produces a pleasant smoke that smells of banana. 

Whether they enjoy the flavor or not, most agree that the Asylum 13 Split Personality has an undeniably fantastic construction and draw.

7. Corona Flavors Grape

Produced by Corona Cigar Co., the Corona Flavors Grape is a mild and delicious cigar that's perfect for beginners. These cigars are handmade in the Dominican Republic, where Dominican binder and filler are used to craft a flavored cigar that will entice beginner smokers and aficionados alike. 

The highly affordable price tag means that these cigars provide incredible value for the quality they deliver. 

8. CAO Flavours Cherry Bomb

If you want a mellow fruit-flavored cigar, the CAO Flavours Cherry Bomb is the one for you. The main cherry flavor is complemented by hints of vanilla and blackcurrant to create a complex and memorable experience. These smooth and less overpowering flavors make the Cherry Bomb perfect for a chilled smoke. Made with Nicaraguan binder and filler, this cigar originates from the Dominican Republic, where it's finished with a Cameroonian wrapper.

For ultimate enjoyment, smoke a CAO Flavours Cherry Bomb cigar with either a dark brown ale or a bourbon.

The Top Honey-, Vanilla- and Cream-Flavored Cigars of 2026

These ingredients often lead to smooth, rich flavors. So, it's no wonder that so many aficionados choose to enjoy these flavored cigars. Here are the top honey-, vanilla- and cream-flavored cigars in 2026.

9. Tatiana Vanilla Classic

Made in the Dominican Republic with Cuban seed tobacco, the Tatiana Vanilla Classic is aged for two years to give more depth to its flavor. With Nicaraguan filler and binder, this hand-rolled cigar is completed with a sweet and slightly spicy Sumatra wrapper. These flavors join the natural vanilla taste of the tobacco. 

Mild to medium in strength, this cigar doesn't deliver an overpowering taste. Instead, its smooth, mellow flavors, combined with its sweet smell and pleasing appearance, will delight all your senses. Pair with a light- to medium-roast coffee for the best experience. 

10. Acid Remi Blue Blondie

The Acid Remi Blue Blondie, like all Acid cigars, is infused with a secret blend of herbs and essential oils. This makes it hard to pinpoint its exact flavor, but hints of vanilla, cream, cinnamon, coffee and floral themes have all been noted. Despite the uncertainty about the exact flavors infused, this cigar has been massively loved since 1999, with the Acid Blue being Drew Estate's key line of Acid cigars.

This medium-strength cigar is extremely well-made, with a Connecticut wrapper that produces plenty of aromatic smoke.

11. CAO Flavours Eileen's Dream

Another cigar from the same line as the Cherry Bomb, CAO Flavours Eileen's Dream delivers a chilled smoking experience with great flavors. Like the Cherry Bomb, Eileen's Dream doesn't have a sweetened tip, which means the flavors are more subtle. 

However, those flavors are highly intricate. Trying to create an Irish cream flavor, this cigar delivers notes of premium Irish whiskey, cream, coconut milk and white chocolate. The nuttiness and mild spice of the Cameroonian wrapper add another dimension to this infused cigar.

Mild in strength and blend, Eileen's Dream can be best enjoyed in the evening with a glass of bourbon or even alongside a morning coffee.

12. Tatiana Groovy Blue

The Tatiana Groovy Blue offers flavors of berries, vanilla, acacia honey and cognac. This rich tapestry of flavors, delivered by a premium blend of aged tobacco, should be enough to pique the curiosity of any cigar lover. Hand-rolled and finished with an Indonesian wrapper, these cigarillos use subtle flavors and a mild-to-medium strength to offer a short and mellow smoking experience.
