Herman Upmann was a banker from Germany who so loved Cuban cigars that he moved to Havana in 1844 and set up as both banker and cigar maker. His bank closed in the early 1920's but his cigars live on as a fine example of an elegant, light to medium flavoured Havana.
H. Upmann's blend is composed exclusively of filler and binder tobaccos grown in the vuelta Abajo zone.
All H. Upmann sizes are "tripa larga, totalmente a mano" -long filler, totally hand made.
