Gran Habano Introduces Persian King Omega Omega — First All-Honduran Blend for the Brand

Gran Habano is making a notable move in 2026 with the introduction of the Persian King Omega Omega, a limited release that marks the first time the brand has produced a cigar made entirely from Honduran tobacco.

First reported by Halfwheel, this release represents a meaningful shift for a company long known for blending across multiple regions.

A Milestone for Gran Habano

For decades, founder George Rico has worked extensively with Honduran tobacco, but the Persian King Omega Omega is the first project where the brand commits fully to a single country of origin.

Produced at G.R. Tabacaleras Unidas S.A. in Honduras, the cigar showcases tobaccos from the 2023/2024 crop, highlighting the depth and versatility of Honduran-grown leaf.

This isn’t just another limited release — it’s a statement about the brand’s confidence in its Honduran operations.

Blend Details

The Omega Omega is built as a true Honduran puro:

Wrapper: Honduran Habano
Binder: Honduran Corojo
Filler: Honduran Corojo, Criollo, and Habano (2023/2024 crop)
Factory: G.R. Tabacaleras Unidas S.A. (Honduras)
Vitola: 6 x 54 Toro
Packaging: 50-count boxes

Production & Pricing

Gran Habano is keeping this release limited but accessible:

• Production: 2,000 boxes (100,000 cigars total)
• MSRP: $8.96 per cigar
• Box Count: 50 cigars

At that price point, this stands out as a limited release that doesn’t push into ultra-premium territory.

Release Timeline

• Shipping: June 2026
• Distribution: To be announced

Retail availability is still pending, so this is one to keep an eye on as we get closer to summer.

Why It Matters

The Persian King Omega Omega represents a clear evolution for Gran Habano.

Going all-in on Honduran tobacco is a bold move, especially for a brand with such a long blending history across regions. For smokers who appreciate Honduran profiles — and for retailers looking for a story-driven limited release — this is definitely one worth watching.
