Notorious Cigars Corona Gorda

Conor McGregor’s Notorious Cigars combine the star power of a global icon with serious cigar craftsmanship. Hand-rolled at MJ Frias in the Dominican Republic and crafted to a medium-bodied profile, Notorious cigars deliver a creamy smoke, a well-defined structure and a modern, distinctive character. The blend features a four-year-aged Ecuador Habano 2000 Rosado Oscuro wrapper over a Mexican San Andrés binder; the filler combines tobaccos from Nicaragua (Jalapa) and the Dominican Republic (San Víctor, Villa González). Notorious Cigars come in elegant boxes of 10 and are available on the official brand website and from selected specialist retailers – a stylish smoke with a distinctive character.

The champion’s signature cigar

Conor McGregor epitomises performance, attitude and the art of the show – and it is precisely this trio that Notorious Cigars translate into a smoking experience: a precise draw, a rich smoke volume and a flavour profile that combines strength with finesse. The brand’s image is deliberately self-assured, yet the craftsmanship is classic: entirely hand-rolled, quality-checked multiple times and tailored for a well-rounded, accessible smoking experience.

Blend & Origin – powerful yet refined

The aged Ecuadorian Habano wrapper brings natural sweetness and subtle spice, whilst San Andrés provides backbone and dark chocolate notes; the Nicaraguan-Dominican filler delivers cedar, white pepper and hints of caramel. Together, this creates a medium-bodied profile with a deep, creamy texture – ideal with espresso, dark chocolate or a mild rum.

Conor McGregor – the ‘Notorious’ man behind the brand

Conor McGregor is Ireland’s global MMA superstar, renowned for his precision in the Octagon, razor-sharp self-confidence and showmanship. As the first UFC champion to hold two titles simultaneously, he embodies discipline and drive – the same energy he brings to ventures such as whisky, stout and now Notorious Cigars. The cigars reflect his signature style: powerful, controlled and impressive in appearance – a pleasure to be enjoyed with a winner’s mentality.
