Can you confirm if I am understanding correctly? You are wanting an additional description to show on the single product page when a product has a specific tag?
You could just literally add a ‘Special Order’ tag for these products, then if you need to show some custom CSS or banner of some sort, create a function that looks for that matching tag.
You can use a conditional tag:

Would that tag be added as a product attribute as well?
Jesse Pearson, yes that would be excellent.
Thomas, as amazingly perfect as that would be I don’t have enough experience in WordPress. I assume that something like that would be a javascript function that if tag = “Special Order” then display a banner at the top of the page? If so would that be implemented on the functions.php? I’d love to give it a try.
Luke, It could be, and probably should be.
Some custom PHP should be all that you need, shouldn’t need any javascript.
Another solution could be to use a plugin like this: https://wordpress.org/plugins/blocks/. You can add this additional content in that plugin, and then enter the shortcode on all products where you want this information to show up.
