For a small flavored-cigar purchase, compare Neptune's October 7 singles: ACID Blue Blondie at $6.05, Java Red Corona at $10.65 and Tatiana Groovy Blue La Vita at $3.95. Match the exact flavor and size before choosing. The broader September 26 pack survey below remains a dated comparison.
Current singles for a smaller purchase
Neptune listed these singles and boxes in stock on October 7, 2026. Prices are merchandise only, before tax and shipping; a box price requires buying the whole quantity.
| Exact cigar and size | Single | Whole box |
|---|---|---|
| ACID Blue Blondie, 4 × 38 | $6.05 | 40 for $220.84 |
| Java Red Corona, 5 × 42 | $10.65 | 24 for $241.95 |
| Tatiana Groovy Blue La Vita, 5 × 38 | $3.95 | 25 for $76.95 |
La Vita is a different 5 × 38 format from the Classic 6 × 44 in the older survey. Its price does not update the Classic row. One Blondie plus one Java Red costs $16.70 in merchandise for two different cigars; compare delivered totals before inferring savings across retailers.
Pick a flavor family
This guide compares choices for adult cigar smokers. It is a retail and catalog comparison, not a new tasting panel or a claim to cover every flavored cigar.
| Line | What distinguishes it | Useful starting comparison |
|---|---|---|
| ACID | Drew Estate's botanical and aromatic range | Short Blondie 4x38 versus larger Kuba Kuba 5x54 |
| Java | Coffee-oriented line made by Drew Estate for Rocky Patel | Maduro, Latte, Mint and Red; match the blend as well as size |
| Tabak Especial | Drew Estate coffee line, Dulce and Negra | Dulce Robusto 5x54 versus Negra Toro 6x52 |
| Isla del Sol | Lower-priced Drew Estate coffee line | Available Sun Grown Gran Corona, 5x44 |
| CAO Flavours | Named vanilla, fruit, honey and dessert flavors | Moontrance Corona versus smaller cigarillos |
| Tatiana | Named flavors with several package sizes | Classic Groovy Blue 6x44; compare it separately from small tins |
| Nub Nuance Triple Roast | Oliva coffee line, formerly Nub Café | Wide 460, 4x60; the narrow 438 was unavailable |
Drew Estate describes Tabak Especial Negra with chocolate and espresso. CAO describes Moontrance with bourbon vanilla and Georgia peaches, listing a 5.25 × 42 Corona and 4 × 30 cigarillos. These are maker descriptions, not a new tasting trial. Match the flavor and format together.
The pack can matter more than the box discount
The examples and calculator retain the September 26 offers. Their exact pack counts explain the purchase commitment; they do not establish current Famous stock.
- Buying four Blondies: four Holt's singles total $27.60 in merchandise. A Famous five-pack is $28.99; its ten-pack sale is $49.95. The lowest unit price requires a larger payment.
- Buying six Java Red Coronas: two four-packs cost $81.98 for eight cigars, leaving two. A quoted five-pack price from another Java blend is the wrong comparison.
- Buying Isla del Sol: the Sun Grown Robusto's $100.99 box was out of stock. The Gran Corona was available at $92.99 for twenty, about $4.65 each.
Those totals exclude shipping and tax. The September 26 Famous shipping reference quoted Super Saver at $7.99 and Ground at $11.99. Confirm current rates and location adjustments; a small merchandise difference across retailers may disappear at checkout.

Small-format counts are printed explicitly: a Java Red Corona pack contains four, and a Tabak Negra Gordito box contains ten. “Out” means unavailable when checked; those offers do not compete for the calculator's cheapest option.
ACID singles come from Holt's ACID page; the Moontrance single comes from Holt's CAO page. Other listed formats come from the linked Famous product tables. Each calculator offer links its own source.
Match the flavor, not just the family name
Java Corona is not one interchangeable offer. Maduro and Mint had $49.99 five-packs and $239.99 boxes of 24. Latte's matching packs and boxes were out of stock, though its single was available. Red had a $40.99 four-pack. The calculator separates Red and uses Maduro for the other Java comparisons.
Tatiana Classic Groovy Blue had both the $17.99 five-pack and $84.99 box available. Honey, Night Cap, Rum and Sweet Euphoria boxes were unavailable. Holt's $5.25 singles were available in Cherry, Chocolate, Honey, Rum and Vanilla, but those are not Groovy Blue singles.
The small Tatiana tins here are 3.5x26. Larger Petite Tins are a different 4x30 product. Honey and Night Cap small tins were unavailable; the calculator's Vanilla row avoids mixing their stock with an available flavor. Nub's prices apply to Triple Roast, not an unverified “any roast” offer.
A rounded unit price can hide a difference
Java Maduro Corona's $49.99 five-pack costs $9.998 per cigar; its $239.99 box of 24 costs about $9.9996. Both display as $10.00, but they are not exactly tied. The calculator keeps full precision until display and separately computes the whole packs required for your quantity.
Historical catalog ratings
The chart and table use our September 21 catalog snapshot. Prices are recorded unit references, often derived from boxes, not today's single-cigar offers. Ratings describe this selected catalog sample; they do not establish that one current retail purchase is better for your taste.
Historical catalog prices: 10 flavored cigars
Recorded ratings across the 10 span 0.20 of a point (4.10 to 4.30) while price spreads 2.1×, from the Acid Blondie at $5.65 to the Java by Drew Estate Maduro Toro at $11.67. These figures describe this catalog sample, not current stock or a fresh comparative tasting.

The duplicate Java Toro catalog record is counted once. Kuba Kuba, Negra Toro and Java Maduro Toro share the top recorded rating here, 4.3. Compare a short Blondie with a larger Kuba Kuba through our ACID catalog, or use the Java catalog to keep blend names straight.
Brand details worth checking
| Before choosing | Detail that prevents a bad comparison |
|---|---|
| ACID | Natural Kuba Kuba and its distinct Fresh Pack listing are separate offers; the latter was out of stock. |
| Java | Red Corona's four-pack is not the five-pack sold for Maduro. Toro single prices were verified for Maduro and Latte, not every blend. |
| Tabak Especial Negra | Drew Estate specifies Mexican San Andrés wrapper, Sumatra binder and Nicaraguan filler. Retail descriptions that call it Broadleaf conflict with the maker. |
| Isla del Sol | Sun Grown and Maduro, and Gran Corona and Robusto, are separate products. An unavailable Robusto does not establish the cheapest available option. |
| CAO | Moontrance Corona's Famous box is $134.99 for 20. The $161.17 Holt's box is a different retailer offer and was out of stock. |
| Tatiana | Classic 6x44, small tins 3.5x26 and Petite Tins 4x30 must not share a price row. |
| Nub | The catalog's old Espresso 460 name corresponds to Triple Roast. The 438 stock check cannot be generalized to every roast. |
A box is a large commitment to one flavor. For an adult smoker exploring a different line, an available single or small pack limits that commitment. Compare physical size with the ring gauge and length guide; price per cigar does not make a 3.5x26 cigarillo equivalent to a 6x52 Toro.
Store aromatic cigars separately
Keep flavored and infused cigars apart from unflavored cigars so their aromas do not mingle. For a few cigars, a separate sealed container with its own humidity pack is practical. See the humidor storage guide and storage without a humidor.
If you want a cigar to accompany coffee without added coffee flavor, use our coffee pairing guide. That is a different decision from buying a coffee-infused cigar.
What is an infused cigar?
It is a maker's term for tobacco given added aromas, used for lines such as ACID and Java. The term alone does not prove the treatment happened before rolling, and “flavored” does not universally mean after rolling. Read the specific maker's description instead of treating the labels as manufacturing standards.
Which flavored cigar is best to try in a small quantity?
On October 7, Neptune listed ACID Blue Blondie at $6.05, Java Red Corona at $10.65 and Tatiana Groovy Blue La Vita at $3.95 per single. La Vita is a different format from Classic. Compare those exact flavors and dimensions before choosing; merchandise prices exclude delivery and tax, and do not establish a taste winner.
Are boxes always cheaper than packs?
No. Some dated sales and pack offers beat the box unit price, and the box requires more cash upfront. Java Maduro Corona's five-pack is fractionally cheaper per cigar than its box, despite both rounding to $10.00. Compare exact pack counts, stock, sale expiry and total checkout charges.
Can flavored cigars share a humidor with regular cigars?
Separate storage is the practical choice because aromatic cigars can affect neighboring cigars. Use a separate humidor or sealed container with humidity control. Keep different aromatic blends apart too if you want to preserve their individual aromas.
