H. Upmann Hispaniola by Jose Mendez

Description

A taste of the Greater Antilles.

H. Upmann has a strong history of success in the cigar business that’s entirely their own, but this doesn’t preclude them from joining forces with other names in the industry. Big or small, these collaborations produce truly special releases that benefit not only themselves but the industry as a whole. The A.J. Fernandez and Grupo de Maestros versions were instantly well-received, and their newest collaboration is with famed tobacco producer Jose Mendez, with a goal to pay tribute to the nearly forgotten Dominican tobacco processes native to the island of Hispaniola.

This medium to full-bodied gen contains tobacco from several different farms and growing regions in the Dominican, including Andullo and Pilotico. The binder is Dominican and the wrapper is a sultry Ecuador Sumatra leaf, producing uniquely creamy and complex notes of nuts, cedar, and toast. Jose Mendez pulled out all the stops for this exceptional blend, so grab a box and get a taste of olde-world Hispaniola.

Easy draw all the way to the nub. Excellent cigar for mornings with coffee/tea. Always had an even burn. Toastiness stays throughout the cigar. Has some nuttiness, not too strong. Easy smoke. Great with rum as a night cap. I chose Santa Teresa for a more spicier/banana rum night and Plantation X0 for a more mild smoother rum with a kick of coconut. Currently ordering more and going to age them for a year and more.

The construction and burn on this smoke are awesome. Beautiful silky red hued wrapper. Just not a ton of flavor or finish. Very bland to me. Nit a bad smoke.

Good smoke starting with honey cedar on the cold draw. Nice slow burn with decent smoke output. After warming up, the finish is mild leather and cedar with a medium body.
