Notorious Cigars Guide — Every Line from Conor McGregor’s Brand
Quick answer
Notorious Cigars is Conor McGregor’s Dominican-made premium cigar brand. Three lines are available at LCC: the Original Blend (medium-full, Ecuadorian Habano Rosado Oscuro) from $13.13/stick, Creme de la Creme (medium, Connecticut Shade) from $15.66/stick, and Unapologetic (full, USA Broadleaf) from $19.70/stick.
Conor McGregor has been lighting victory cigars in the octagon for years. In 2025 he made it official — Notorious Cigars launched as a serious premium cigar brand made at MJ Frias Cigars in Santiago, Dominican Republic. What started as a single bold blend has expanded into three distinct lines covering medium through full strength.
The numbers back up the interest. ‘Conor McGregor cigars’ delivers over 600 clicks per month from search at LCC alone. This is not a celebrity vanity project — the blends are serious, the factory credentials are real, and the two New Releases posts for Creme de la Creme and Unapologetic are already generating 20%+ CTR within days of publication.

Notorious Original Blend — where it started
The Original Blend launched the brand — a medium-full Dominican puro with a four-year-aged Ecuadorian Habano 2000 Rosado Oscuro wrapper. The San Andres Mexican binder and Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers create a blend with genuine depth: espresso, dark cherry, black pepper on the retrohale, and a long dry finish. The Double Robusto (5.5x54) is the most popular vitola.
Corona Gordo (5.25x46) — 5-pack $65.65 • $13.13 per stick
Double Robusto (5.5x54) — 5-pack $70.70 • $14.14 per stick

Notorious Creme de la Creme — the smooth side of the brand
Creme de la Creme goes the other direction from the Original — an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper over a Brazilian Arapiraca binder and Nicaraguan, Dominican, and Colombian fillers. Medium-bodied, silky, and immediately approachable. Expect espresso and dark chocolate on the open, roasted nuts through the middle, and a long creamy finish.
This is the Notorious cigar for smokers who want the brand but prefer medium body — and it’s the release that proved Notorious is more than one-dimensional. The Brazilian Arapiraca binder is an unusual choice that adds genuine character.
Robusto (5x50) — 5-pack $78.28 • $15.66 per stick
Toro (6x52) — 5-pack $83.32 • $16.66 per stick

Notorious Unapologetic — full body, USA broadleaf
Unapologetic is the boldest cigar in the lineup — a full-body blend with a USA-grown Broadleaf wrapper, Ecuadorian Sumatra binder, and Dominican, Nicaraguan, and USA-grown fillers. Dark espresso, leather, earth, and a deep tobacco sweetness underneath the full-body strength. The Sublime (6.5x54) is the flagship vitola.
Corona Larga (6.25x46) — 5-pack $98.48 • $19.70 per stick
Sublime (6.5x54) — 5-pack $108.58 • $21.72 per stick
