H. Upmann Nicaragua AJ Fernandez Heritage Robusto Pack of 5 Cigars - Free Shipping!
In recent years, AJ Fernandez has been an MVP, of sorts, for Altadis USA, revamping, reinventing, and resurrecting brands that have been flying under the radar for decades. One such brand is H. Upmann, and with H. Upmann Nicaragua AJ Fernandez Heritage Robusto, we see the second regular production H. Upmann cigar to bear Fernandez’s name. The first, H. Upmann by AJ Fernandez, was an achievement of its own, but this blend takes things just a few steps further. Made by hand at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez in Nicaragua, this blend features a straightforward blend of premium tobaccos, including Nicaragua fillers, a Nicaraguan binder, and a dark, oily Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper leaf that gives the blend exponentially deeper and richer flavor than its predecessor. This blend earned an impressive trio of 90 ratings in Cigar Aficionado soon after its release, proving that AJ Fernandez just cannot go wrong when it comes to bringing back classics in modern form.
Each cedar chest housing these top-shelf vitolas radiates elegance, crafted from what appears to be fine antique wood and adorned with the distinguished H. Upmann logo. This same emblem graces each cigar’s deep blue and gold band, adding a touch of sophistication. The cigars themselves offer unmatched quality, with an effortless draw and dense, velvety smoke that immerses the senses. The flavor profile opens boldly, as robust Nicaraguan white pepper hits the palate, seamlessly complemented by the Brazilian wrapper’s spicy, intense character for a powerful start. This intensity gradually softens, revealing a smooth medley of dark chocolate, espresso, and rich tobacco notes, with a subtle sweetness that lingers on the tongue. The finish is long and satisfying, placing the cigar confidently in the medium-full-bodied range. At 5” x 52, the Robusto size provides the perfect duration to enjoy each nuanced layer of this complex blend.
Crafted for seasoned aficionados, this highly-rated gem demands experience, patience, and a true appreciation for the legacy it represents. The fuller-bodied profile and intricate flavors of the H. Upmann Nicaragua AJ Fernandez Heritage make it an ideal pairing for bourbon or port wine and place it in line with Fernandez’s acclaimed Trinidad Espiritu Series No. 2, another revival showcasing a dark Brazilian wrapper. With each release, AJ Fernandez proves his mastery, and the H. Upmann Nicaragua AJ Fernandez Heritage Robusto is no exception—it's a masterpiece that speaks to his “Midas Touch” in crafting unforgettable blends.
