Where to Buy Cuban Cigars in Europe: the 2026 Retailer Map

Update, 26 October 2026: Sweden’s Cuban cigar importer, Elite Trading Scandinavia (formerly Habanos Nordic), is in voluntary liquidation, and no successor has been named. Swedish shops’ Cuban stock is thin while the Nordic market waits. The full story: Sweden’s Cuban cigar importer is being wound up.

Quick answer: Cuban cigars are sold by licensed retailers across Europe, but the rules differ by country. As we understand them, licensed shops can sell tobacco online to domestic customers in Germany, the UK, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Greece, Austria and Denmark; online sale is restricted in Italy and Sweden; Spain and France do not allow online tobacco sales. Retailers that publish prices online include Noblego (Germany), Cigarmust (Switzerland), James J. Fox (UK and Dublin), Cigarrspecialisten (Sweden) and Hajenius (Netherlands). The Finder shows their listed prices side by side, with the date each was read.

This is a summary, not legal advice. Rules on buying tobacco online, and on shipping it across borders, change; check your own country’s rules and the retailer’s terms.

Buying Cuban cigars in Europe has changed in the last few years. Box prices have risen sharply. Most countries are supplied by a single official importer, such as 5th Avenue in Germany and Hunters & Frankau in the UK; the Nordic importer is now in liquidation (see above). And the rules for selling tobacco online differ from one country to the next.

What follows is a map of where Cuban cigars are sold in Europe, country by country. We don’t sell cigars, and no retailer pays to be listed here.

How online sale works: five groups of countries

European markets fall roughly into five groups.

1. Domestic online sale allowed. Germany, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Greece, Austria and Denmark allow licensed retailers to sell tobacco online to customers in their own country.

2. Restricted online sale. Italy and Sweden allow some domestic online sale by licensed retailers, under tighter rules. Selling tobacco to consumers in other EU countries (cross-border distance selling) needs registration in both countries, and some countries ban it.

3. State-regulated retail. Spain does not allow tobacco to be sold online. Reservation services that fulfil through licensed estancos exist. Prices are set nationally.

4. In-store markets. Portugal, the Czech Republic, Finland, Norway and Luxembourg have Cuban specialist shops, often La Casa del Habano franchises, but little or no online checkout.

5. No online sale. France does not allow tobacco to be sold online. Paris shops such as À La Civette sell in person only.

Country by country

Germany

Germany has the largest number of Cuban cigar retailers with public online prices. Noblego is based in Berlin. Cigarworld.de in Düsseldorf is a La Casa del Habano (LCDH) franchise. The Cigar Smoker is the LCDH shop in Hamburg. See the Germany price board.

Switzerland

Switzerland is outside the EU and its customs union, and Swiss VAT is lower (8.1%) than EU rates. Cigarmust in Mendrisio publishes prices in Swiss francs. Siglomundo in Ticino runs a multilingual online store. CigarOne is based in Geneva. Importing tobacco into an EU country brings customs duty and excise; check before ordering across the border. See the Switzerland price board.

United Kingdom

James J. Fox and Sautter Cigars are long-established London shops. C.Gars / Turmeaus in Liverpool lists a deep range of aged Cubans. Havana House has several UK shops and an online store. EGM Cigars specialises in rare and aged Cubans. See the UK price board.

Sweden

Swedish Cuban supply came through the Nordic importer, now in liquidation (see the update at the top), so expect gaps in stock. Cigarrspecialisten in Växjö is an LCDH shop. Puros.se describes itself as the largest cigar shop in the Nordics. Cigarrhyllan is in Stockholm. Our guide to Sweden’s cigar shops and lounges covers the physical shops. See the Sweden price board.

Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland

In the Netherlands, P.G.C. Hajenius in Amsterdam was founded in 1826.

Belgium has two LCDH shops with online prices: LCDH Antwerp and LCDH Brussels.

In Ireland, James J. Fox Dublin is a Habanos Specialist with an online store.

See Netherlands, Belgium and Ireland.

Italy and Spain

Italy’s online market is small: Sigari e Tabacchi, House of Cigars in Venice and Bottega del Fumatore in Padova list per-cigar prices in euros. La Casa del Habano Milano shows its range but doesn’t sell online.

In Spain, Cigar Smoker Club runs a reservation service that fulfils through licensed estancos. Otherwise, buying is in person.

See Italy and Spain.

Greece, Denmark, Portugal and the rest

Greece has two online retailers, Cigars Galaxy and CigarSmoke, plus LCDH Athens. Denmark’s Danish Pipe Shop has a large online range. In Portugal, LCDH Lisboa and Casa Havaneza (founded 1864) are in Lisbon. The Czech Republic, Finland, Norway, Luxembourg and Austria are mainly walk-in markets with LCDH shops. France, as above, has no online tobacco sale.

Prices differ between retailers

European retailers set their own prices, so the same box can cost noticeably different amounts in different shops. Some examples from May 2026 (prices change often; the Finder pages show the latest reading and its date):

• Partagás Serie D No. 4, box of 25: €524 at Noblego, €555 at James J. Fox Dublin, CHF 587 at Cigarmust.
• Trinidad Reyes, box of 12: €791 at Noblego, CHF 412 on promotion at Cigarmust, £690 at EGM Cigars.
• Cohiba Robustos, box of 25: €1,930 at Noblego, CHF 2,040 at Cigarmust.

Promotions, stock and exchange rates move these numbers week to week.

How the Finder works

The Finder lists each retailer’s published box price for a cigar, with the date we read it. Pick a country to see the retailers there, or a cigar to see every retailer that lists it. Follow a link to check the current price on the retailer’s own site. We don’t sell cigars, we don’t handle any transaction, and retailers don’t pay us. Price alerts are available in The Lounge.

Frequently asked questions

Where are Cuban cigars cheapest in Europe?

It depends on the cigar and the week. Retailers set their own prices and run their own promotions. The Finder shows each retailer’s latest listed price for a cigar and the date it was read.

Can I buy Cuban cigars online in Europe?

In some countries. As we understand the rules, licensed retailers can sell to domestic customers online in Germany, the UK, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Greece, Austria and Denmark. Italy and Sweden restrict online sale. Spain and France do not allow online tobacco sales. Selling to consumers in another EU country needs registration in both countries and is banned in some. Check your own country’s rules.

What is La Casa del Habano?

La Casa del Habano (LCDH) is Habanos S.A.’s franchise of specialist shops. LCDH shops are authorised by Habanos S.A. to sell its cigars. In our directory, they include Cigarrspecialisten (Sweden), Cigarmust (Switzerland), Cigarworld Düsseldorf and The Cigar Smoker Hamburg (Germany), LCDH Antwerp and Brussels (Belgium) and LCDH Lisboa (Portugal).

Why are Cuban cigars more expensive in Europe than in Cuba?

European prices include each country’s tobacco excise duty and VAT, plus the importer’s and retailer’s margins, which is why the same box costs more in Europe than at source.

How accurate are the prices on the Finder?

Each price shows the date it was read and links to the retailer’s page. Prices change, so confirm on the retailer’s site before you buy.

Where can I find Cohiba Behike in Europe?

Behike boxes are scarce and come and go. The Cohiba Behike 52 comparison page shows which retailers list it and the date each price was read.
