Originally reserved as an exclusive gift for world leaders, Joya de Nicaragua’s Número Uno has captivated cigar enthusiasts since it debuted in the U.S. as an event-exclusive release in 2018. Recognized as one of the finest cigars in the world, Número Uno has earned numerous prestigious accolades, including Halfwheel’s Top Cigar of 2018, Cigar Dojo’s Best Cigar of 2019, and a coveted spot on Cigar Aficionado’s Top 25 Cigars of 2020, ranking No. 6 with a 95-point rating.

A masterpiece of balance and refinement, Número Uno features a silky Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over select Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos, delivering a mellow-to-medium-bodied smoking experience filled with creamy richness and complexity.

Since their official release, Número Uno “L’Ambassadeur” and “Le Premier” have been offered in 25-count boxes for the U.S. market, while international markets have enjoyed the refined 13-count box presentation. Joya de Nicaragua is now introducing the distinguished

Número Uno 13-count box to U.S. retailers, offering American aficionados the same sophisticated presentation that has been celebrated worldwide.

Joya de Nicaragua’s Número Uno will be available in two formats:

• Número Uno “L’Ambassadeur” – 6 5/8 x 44 MSRP $253.50 per box and $19.50 per cigar
• Número Uno “Le Premier” – 6 7/8 x 48 MSRP $266.50 per box and $20.50 per cigar

The Número Uno 13-count box will make its U.S. debut this April at the PCA 2025 Convention & Trade Show in New Orleans, with orders being taken at the Drew Estate booth #3241. The new presentation is expected to begin shipping to U.S. retailers in April 2025.
