The Cavalier Genève Limited Edition 2024 is off to stores.
This is the seventh consecutive year that Cavalier Genève has released a cigar for its Limited Series. Each has been different but the 2024 release is the first time it will be in a non-parejo size like a robusto or toro. The Cavalier Genève Limited Edition 2024 is a 5 1/2 x 58 double figurado with a pigtail. While Cavalier Genève disclosed the blend for the first release in the series, it has since stopped saying what tobaccos are used inside. That said, the company says each blend is unique and never repeated for the series.
Each cigar has an MSRP of $15.90 and production is limited to 1,948 boxes of 10 cigars. That number—1948—references 1948 degrees Fahrenheit, the melting temperature of gold. Almost all of Cavalier Genève’s cigars have a small piece of edible gold foil on top of the wrapper. More than half of the cigars will go to stores in the U.S., though 900 boxes will be sold in international markets.

“This year not only continues the tradition of our Limited Editions, which gets one release per year, but it celebrates it by not only coming to the market with a unique blend but also with a brand new size for Cavalier,” said Sébastien Decoppet, founder of Cavalier Genève, in a press release when the cigar was announced last month. “ We believe that this year’s cigar perfectly embodies what our Limited Editions have been standing for since 2018, which is bringing a unique, “one and done” cigar experience that every year pushes the boundaries of our expertise to ensure a fantastic new experience for the cigar lover.”
All Cavalier Genève cigars are rolled at the company’s Fábrica Centroamericana de Tabaco S.A. factory in Honduras.
