H. Upmann 180th

Anniversary

At the very top of a tobacco plant, the corona leaf is often considered the highest priming of the plant. Though difficult to harvest at times, smokers are rewarded both in terms of strength and a richness of flavor, thanks to more direct nutrients from sunlight exposure. However, the H. Upmann 180th Anniversary Churchill, a special collaboration between cigar world stars A.J. Fernandez and Rafael Nodal, the wrapper is made from the medio tempo priming of a delectable hybrid seed tobacco. Medio tempo sometimes grows above that prestigious corona level, giving the cigar unprecedented strength, vibrancy and power to back up a flavor profile you won’t find from any other Nicaraguan puro. Naturally colored and 7x50 in size, these cigars sit in a collector’s box that is just as much a timepiece and conversation starter as it is another batch of smokes that will eventually make its way into your humidor. With box art celebrating the tobacco brand’s legendary history, one feels like they are part of the journey from 1844 onward, when two brothers ventured into the cigar world and began inventing countless ways to better the experience for high-end smokers around the globe. From being the first company to use a cedar box for storage to enrich the flavor of the smokes, to becoming one of the leading special-release brands in the world, H. Upmann never disappoints, which is why this important benchmark anniversary cigar has been coveted by aficionados everywhere. Though the medio tempo yielded a small batch, these cigars are available now through Casa de Montecristo. Our curated storefront always steers smokers toward the best tobacco from around the globe.
