Looking for premium cigars in Hong Kong? Absolute Cigars will get them to you!
Hong Kong is widely known to a be a center of cigar culture and appreciation in Asia. It’s a special place for us here at Absolute Cigars, as over the years we’ve been honored to have built up a much appreciated group of Hong Kong customers and even friends along the way. So we need to start this post with a nod of appreciation to our long-standing legion on loyal customers in the great cigar city of Hong Kong. For decades now we’ve come to know so many of you as honest, straight-talking, friendly people, with a solid depth of knowledge about cigars and an eye for top quality.
We strive every day to serve Hong Kong cigar fans with the fastest, most efficient shipping service possible for fine, top quality cigars such as the Cigar Aficionado #1 rated cigar pictured here – the My Father Le Bijou 1922 Torpedo, along with 300 other cigar brands, such as Padron, Ashton and Arturo Fuente.
In fact, our business was founded to ship internationally, and from day one, we shipped to Hong Kong. We had no idea then, but learned quickly that Hong Kong has a long cigar history, and a large cigar community today.
At Absolute Cigars we like to think we play just a small part in modern cigar life in Hong Kong, with our role in getting premium, hard -to-find non-Cuban brands to our many customers there. We like to think our cigars add to the character and selection in what is already a well-supplied market, with of course the full range of Cuban cigars generally available at most shops and lounges and hotels in Hong Kong.
Hong Kong is home to a thriving cigar community with a number of cigar clubs and groups meeting at lounges and bars all over the city. Availability of premium non-Cuban cigars though is not widespread in Hong Kong. However, AC offers a solution for enthusiasts of Dominican, Nicaraguan and Honduran cigars in Hong Kong with our quick and simple international cigar delivery service on hundreds of top non-Cuban cigar brands.
After decades of building customer relationships (which in many cases became friendships born from a shared interest in cigars), what have we learned? Hong Kong is a hive of experienced and knowledgeable cigar enthusiasts. They’re cigar fans who have a world view, not blind by a preconceived notion of ‘all Cubans, all the time’. They don’t think twice about doing business in the international marketplace, and with an understanding of how international shipping works
Hong Kong Cigar Shops
Of course, locally Hong Kong has a range of terrific retail cigar shops and luxury cigar lounges, fully stocked with well known Cuban cigars. Many of those shops and lounges certainly carry a handful of premium Dominican cigars. Often some Ashtons and Arturo Fuentes. So yes, great options if you’re simply looking for those world renowned brands. We certainly encourage customers to buy locally, and maybe supplement internationally for what you may not be able to find in cigar shops in Hong Kong.
Essential Cigars
Some premium non-Cuban cigar brands we consider ‘must-try’ cigars, that may not be readily available in your local Hong Kong cigar merchants are brands like Padron, Perdomo, Camacho, and Oliva.

What We Do
For over a quarter of a century we have offered a vast selection of non-Cuban cigar brands for international delivery.
We also carry one of the largest selections of the most unique cigars samplers available on the web. Plus we stock a unique and interesting selection of unique cigar accessories, including hundreds of cigar branded lighters, cutters, humidors, and other limited edition cigar branded items.
All our cigar shipments to Hong Kong are handled via fast, reliable and affordable US Postal Service Priority Mail or First Class Air service with postal tracking from our warehouse to your door.
All cigars shipped to Hong Kong are packaged heavily and securely so as to ensure orders arrive in terrific condition, ready to light up and enjoy today, or rest in your humidor for a special cigar worthy occasion in the future.
Tracking & Delivery Times to Hong Kong
When your order is placed we ship quickly. Typically within one day. Once your package is released by us to the USPS here, you’ll automatically receive a postal tracking number, so you can monitor your valuable package as it progresses to your door in Hong Kong. Cigar delivery to Hong Kong typically takes 7-10 days, depending on variable customs clearance times. Often faster. Sometimes a little longer.
Customs
We do often get asked about Customs, tax, and duty. Of course as with any country, buyers need to be aware that some tax and or duty may be applicable by your local authorities. This is the case when shipping any item internationally.
So why don’t all US retailers ship cigars to Hong Kong? Well, the US cigar market is massive. Presumably for many retailers that US market is their target and we assume they view the international market as too small to bother with. They don’t have the inclination to deal with learning the rules and regulations for the many different countries; preparing customs forms; labeling requirements for different countries; licensing; etc. All elements that we here at AC have complied with, and dealt with countless times every day, for over 25 years. We take care of all of that and are fully licensed to do what we do.
We’ve found that the Hong Kong cigar market is generally very comfortable dealing with and buying from an international seller. Still, it’s normal to have questions and reservations about international shipping procedures. So what we always suggest to first-time customers is – give us an initial try with something low-priced. Maybe one of our low cost cigar samplers or an inexpensive five-pack from one of our more affordable cigar brands. Hit submit on your order, then sit back and relax as we prepare and ship your hand-rolled premium cigars to you in Hong Kong, right to your door. See how it works, and verify for yourself as to our reliability of service as well as quality of product. We’re sure you’ll come to love our service, as it’s always our goal to earn and hold your trust. We know that succeeding with this with hopefully have you coming back again as we build a relationship of trust and reliability.
We continue to add new cigar brands, expand our inventory and offerings to include the latest releases from the premier manufacturers in the cigar business. Names you may have heard about in Hong Kong, but possibly not had the opportunity to enjoy as yet.
We value all our terrific Hong Kong cigar customers, so many of whom have been with us for years, even decades now. We also welcome new customers who’ve only recently found us. We look forward to serving you with fine premium cigars in Hong Kong as we’ve done now for over 25 years..
