H. Upmann by AJ Fernandez

Moreover, it is equally possible that you have enjoyed a cigar earlier today that was blended by A.J. Fernandez, that tobacco savant behind many of today’s most popular sticks, such as San Lotano, New World, Diesel, and Man O’ War. Joining forces, these two juggernauts have crafted a masterful blend of Nicaraguan and Dominican longleaf, concealed it beneath a bold Corojo ’99 binder, and topped it all off with a gorgeous Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper.

Tiered beneath the laurel-wreathed ‘H. Upmann’ name and ‘1844’ printed in gold over a blue background the color of a tropical sea, the main band on each chocolate-hued stick proudly proclaims the cigar as hailing from Nicaragua, with the secondary band naming A.J. Fernandez as the impresario responsible for the change of venue for this Dominican brand. Offering a sweet barnyard smell, the toothy and thick Sumatra wrapper displays a few veins and tastes of cedar. The first third of a lit H. Upmann by A.J. Fernandez floods the palate with the flavors of café con leche, marzipan, and malted barley. The second half fills the room with a beautiful floral aroma while providing some added cocoa and spice, while the final third delivers a rush of espresso, black pepper, and cherry stem.

Balanced and medium in strength, the H. Upmann by A.J. Fernandez secured a solid 90 rating soon after launch and continues to win over fans from all corners of the globe. See for yourself what all the fuss is about and grab a box today.
