Green Jacket Cigar 2026 from Cavalier Genève

Now entering its third annual release, the Green Jacket Cigar 2026 from Cavalier Genève continues to evolve as a symbol of precision craftsmanship and exclusivity. Named in homage to the famed green blazer awarded at The Masters Tournament in Augusta, this series has become a trophy of its own among cigar connoisseurs — a quiet nod to those who recognize elite blending and boutique rarity when they see it.

This year’s edition maintains the now-trademark 7×47 Churchill format, a size favored by aficionados for its long, elegant profile and slow, satisfying burn. The Green Jacket 2026 Cigar arrives in an 11-count box — a number chosen not for randomness but for its deeper narrative structure. Ten of the cigars feature the finalized 2026 blend, elegantly ringed with green inner circle bands, while the eleventh cigar offers a sneak preview of the 2027 blend, banded plainly by the Cavalier factory to denote its mystery and exclusivity.

Crafted in-house at Fabrica Centroamericana de Tabaco SA in Danli, Honduras — Cavalier Genève’s own facility — the 2026 blend layers a Jalapa wrapper over a Connecticut binder, encasing a sophisticated mix of fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua. The result is a medium-bodied experience with a confident draw, layered spice, and a creamy cedar foundation that nods to Jalapa’s sun-soaked terroir. Expect a nuanced transition from roasted almond to subtle leather and white pepper — a profile designed to seduce the palate gradually and intentionally.

Priced at $203 per box, the Green Jacket Cigar sits firmly within the premium tier, and for good reason. Each stick reflects meticulous planning, purpose-driven flavor architecture, and an aura of collectible prestige.

Green Jacket Cigar: A Limited Legacy in the Making

Cavalier Genève first teased the concept with its 2024 debut, launched exclusively through The Vault in Idaho. That inaugural run laid the groundwork for the brand’s now-annual tradition — a carefully controlled release that offers just a brief window for pre-orders and shuts the door firmly behind it. For the 2026 Green Jacket Cigar, that window closes November 7, 2025 — with absolutely no exceptions, additions, or late orders accepted.

Founder Sebastien Decoppet emphasized this point, noting:

“This product will not be available to any retailer or international distributor that will not have provided us with the needed information by that date. This decision is to ensure that all products are rolled with enough time to rest properly in anticipation of the release next year.”

This isn’t marketing speak — it’s a policy rooted in the brand’s core principle of quality over quantity. The result is a cigar not only with allure but with soul: each release embodies a moment in time, made richer by the anticipation of its arrival and the craftsmanship behind it.

“We are now very glad to offer these once again as a yearly limited production available for pre-orders during an exclusive 2 weeks period,” said Decoppet.

With strong demand both domestically and abroad, the Green Jacket Cigar has carved its own niche within the Cavalier portfolio — not just as a cigar, but as a collector’s item. For seasoned smokers who chase story, structure, and substance, this is not merely another release; it’s a ritual, an annual checkpoint of appreciation for what a cigar can represent when it’s done right.
