Ireland’s first Habanos Regional Edition arrives in the UK.

 James J. Fox is proud and delighted to introduce Ireland’s first Habanos Regional Edition, the Punch Néctares No.50, to the United Kingdom.

The cigar will be exclusively available from James J. Fox venues (19 St James’s Street, Harrods and Selfridges) for a week before being dispatched to Havana Cigar Specialists across the country by Hunters & Frankau, the UK’s exclusive Habanos importer.

The Punch Néctares holds a distinguished place in Irish cigar history. Until being discontinued in the 1980s, the Néctares were a línea of cigars within the Punch brand, made exclusively for James J. Fox in Dublin and London. Their popularity was such that, even years after production had ceased, they remained one of the most coveted and sought after cigars in Ireland. As an Irish Regional Edition, the Punch Néctares No.50 officially debuted in Dublin on June 22, 2025, at a party hosted by Ampersand (Ireland’s Habanos distributor) and Hunters & Frankau.

The Néctares No.50 has been blended to the classic medium bodied Punch taste and is a Magnum 50 size (6 ¼”, 160mm x 50 ring gauge). They are dressed with two bands, a specially commissioned Punch band stating the name of the vitola and, for the first time, a Regional Edition band with the legend “Exclusivo Irlanda”. Just 1,400 Cabinet boxes (SLB’s) of 50 have been made (70,000 cigars in total). Although the consensus is that they are smoking fantastically well today, they seem sure to continue maturing for many years and have already become a collector’s item to many in Ireland. Punch’s distinct medium flavour is created with a blend of filler and binder tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo zone in the Pinar del Rio region of Cuba. All Punch cigars are made ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ - long filler, totally by hand.
