Gold Star by United Cigars: The New Star of the Caribbean

Cigar aficionados, get ready—Gold Star is making its grand return! United Cigars is expanding its prestigious portfolio with the Gold Star line extension, handcrafted at the Tabacalera William Ventura Cigar Factory in the Dominican Republic.
Originally introduced in 1995, the Gold Star line was reawakened in 2024 with a Limited-Edition release that raised over $30,000 for the Navy SEAL Gold Star Program. Now, Gold Star is back for ongoing production, maintaining its iconic gold star emblem while receiving a fresh update in blending and style.
A Tribute to Tradition & Excellence

Gold Star is a symbol of honor, pride, and achievement, delivering a luxurious smoking experience with a carefully curated blend of premium tobaccos:
? Filler: Dominican Ligeros, Criollo ’98, Corojo ‘98, and Connecticut Broadleaf
? Binder: Sumatra
? Wrapper: Ecuador Habano 2000 Intermedio from the renowned Quevedo region
Aged for 365 days, Gold Star offers a medium-bodied profile that’s bold yet smooth. Each puff unveils a harmonious blend of flavors, including:
?? Rich cocoa
?? Toasted almond
?? Sweet honey
?? Hints of cinnamon spice
This cigar was crafted under the Caribbean sun, embracing Dominican cigar-making traditions while enhancing complexity for today’s connoisseurs.

- Robusto (5 x 52) – $12.00
- Toro (6 x 54) – $13.00

Each cigar comes in an elegant black matte box of 20, showcasing the iconic Gold Star logo.

Gold Star: More Than a Cigar
