H. Upmann 180th Anniversary
Wrapper: Nicaraguan Medio Tiempo
Binder: Nicaraguan
Filler: Nicaraguan
Country of Origin: Nicaragua
Cigar Strength: Medium - Full-Bodied
THIS IS ONE OF THE FINEST CIGARS RELEASED, IF NOT "THE FINEST", THIS YEAR
The sequel has arrived! The H. Upmann brand has turned 180 years old and Altadis U.S.A. is honoring the milestone with a limited-edition cigar. Like the 175th Anniversary cigar from 2019, the H. Upmann 180th Anniversary will be a Churchill, measuring 7 inches by 50 ring gauge.
Made in Nicaragua by A.J. Fernandez, the 180th Anniversary is a collaboration between Fernandez and Rafael Nodal, vice president of product capability for Tabacalera USA (Altadis U.S.A.’s parent company).
The all-Nicaraguan blend features a Medio Tiempo wrapper that Nodal says was grown from a hybrid seed. Medio Tiempo leaves sometimes sprout on the very top of a tobacco plant, above the corona level, and are valued for their concentrated power. While the dimensions for the 175th and 180th anniversary are the same, the blends are different.
You will experience rich, thick notes of leather and cedar in a perfectly blended, medium to full-bodied work of art.
This will be one of the finest cigars to be released in 2024
