With a history that spans nearly two centuries, H. Upmann is considered one of the oldest cigar brands that is still being made, and it is still releasing newer blends such as The H. Upmann 1844 Anejo that appeal to today’s aficionado. It is handmade in Honduras from tobacco that has been carefully aged at least for five years prior to rolling. It features a delicious Ecuadorian Habano wrapper that is skillfully draped over a USA Pennsylvania Broadleaf Binder and a filler made by using a three-nation blend of tobaccos from Honduras, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic. The H. Upmann 1844 Anejo is a potent smoke with a rich aroma and long-lasting finish.
Cigar Origin
Honduras
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Honduras, a Central American country which shares a border with Nicaragua, is widely known in the premium cigar industry as the ideal place to grow Cuban and Connecticut seed tobaccos. Danli and the Jamastran Valley is considered the heart of Honduras’ cigar industry. The Jamastran Valley is known for producing a full-bodied tobacco that draws strong comparisons to the tobacco grown in the Pinar del Rio region of Cuba. This same region is also known for its Connecticut shade grown and Corojo shade grown tobacco. In addition, Honduras produces Cuban-seed sun grown filler tobaccos of the highest quality.

Cigar Origin
Dominican Republic
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
The Dominican Republic is the world's first producer of cigars. Most factories are located in Santiago, in the center of the island, and in close proximity to the tobacco fields grown in the fertile Cibao Valley. While tobacco and cigars have always traditionally been produced in the Dominican Republic, many Cuban cigar makers established in the Dominican Republic after the Cuban communist revolution, elevating the quality of Dominican cigars.
