To keep a storied brand like H. Upmann vibrant and relevant, its owners, Altadis U.S.A., collaborated with renowned cigarmaker A.J. Fernandez to craft a special blend commemorating the brand's 175th anniversary. This milestone celebration resulted in a remarkable Churchill-sized cigar. Fernandez utilized tobaccos from his Nicaraguan farms, featuring a wrapper claimed to be medio tiempo by Altadis - a prized, high-priming tobacco leaf cluster that grows at the top of the plant, known for its scarcity and potency. The cigar's Nicaraguan heritage is reflected in its all-Nicaraguan tobacco composition. The H. Upmann 175th Anniversary Churchill is a limited-edition release, packaged in 10-count boxes or a special commemorative humidor. Each Churchill is individually nestled in its own slot within the box and boasts a luxurious gold band, evoking the quality of a minted treasure. Upon smoking, the cigar unfolds with rich, complex flavors, featuring prominent notes of chocolate, dried cherry, and salty leather. These flavors persist on the finish, delivering a satisfying and opulent smoking experience.
