History:
A single batch of cigars in 10 count boxes was produced and sold in Havana during the 2014 Habanos Festival. These cigars had a Festival XIII band in addition to the standard B style band. Some boxes from the same batch were available worldwide after the festival, reportedly without the special bands.
There is some confusion about the spelling of the name of this cigar. Since launch, it was spelled "Connoisseur," however since the introduction of the Connossieur A in 2013, some boxes labeled "Connossieur" No.1 have been reported. The special bands added in 2021 use the "Connossieur" spelling, as does the gold ribbon inside the box, however, the outside of the boxes continue to use the "Connoisseur" name.
