Take a look at the most expensive cigar humidor, 37,000 hours in the making, it costs $25 million and is adorned with 900 carats of diamonds and nearly 600 carats of precious stones

What took the House of Fabergé over three decades to perfect, El Septimo achieved in just three years, but it’s not the time saved that defines the El Septimo Fabergé Egg Cigar Humidor, it’s its breathtaking beauty. Priced at an astonishing $25 million, this extraordinary cigar accessory was designed to mesmerize every onlooker at the annual PCA Convention & Trade Show, while also commemorating El Septimo’s 20th anniversary.

The collection doesn’t feature just one masterpiece but three exceptional Fabergé Egg Cigar Humidors, all commissioned by CEO Zaya Younan. “Our vision was to create a work that inspires everyone, an icon of artistic excellence and innovation. When our customers indulge in an El Septimo cigar, an experience that lasts from one to several hours, they are enveloped in a legacy of history, creativity, and boundless luxury. If we dedicated 37,000 work hours to these humidors, just imagine the devotion behind crafting the world’s most perfect cigars,” shared Younan.
