Experience H. Upmann: A Timeless Cuban Cigar Tradition

At Boisdale’s online shop, we are proud to showcase H. Upmann, one of Cuba’s most historic and respected cigar brands, renowned for its elegance, refinement and unwavering dedication to craftsmanship.

A Storied Heritage

Founded in 1844 by German banker Herman Upmann, the brand is steeped in history and was even awarded multiple gold medals at international exhibitions in the 19th century — medals that still adorn its iconic box design today. Beloved by connoisseurs and collectors alike, H. Upmann has long been regarded as a benchmark of Cuban cigar excellence.

With production rooted in tradition and quality, H. Upmann offers an experience that bridges past and present, appealing to both seasoned aficionados and those beginning their journey into fine cigars.

Tobacco and Craftsmanship

H. Upmann cigars are crafted exclusively with tobaccos from the prized Vuelta Abajo region in Pinar del Río, the cradle of the world’s finest tobacco. Each cigar is hand-rolled by expert Cuban torcedores, ensuring flawless construction and a refined smoking experience characterised by balance and subtlety.

Typical Tasting Notes

H. Upmann is celebrated for its delicate yet flavourful profile. Expect:

  • A gentle aroma with hints of cedar, toasted nuts and a touch of spice.

  • On the palate, creamy coffee and cocoa notes with a smooth, slightly herbal finish.

The H. Upmann No. 2, a torpedo-shaped classic, remains one of the brand’s most iconic and sought-after vitolas.

Perfect Pairings

The subtle and refined nature of H. Upmann makes it ideal to pair with:

  • Elegant single malt Scotch or aged Cognac

  • Fine Bordeaux or Burgundy wines

  • Espresso or dark chocolate

Whether savoured in a moment of quiet sophistication or shared on a special occasion, H. Upmann delivers an experience of understated luxury.
