As today’s life beats at a white-heat pace, Half Corona –H. Upmann’s new vitola- boasts a top-quality short format that allows smokers to puff on a habano under any circumstance. And now this brand-new format is rapidly catching on around the globe.

The taste of H. Upmann –especially recommended for those who want an aromatic, well-balanced and soft-to-mild aftertaste- makes this habano the perfect choice for a brief moment of enjoyment.

 H. Upmann’s Half Corona vitola (ring gauge 44 x 90mm long) is very much in sync with the ongoing circumstances in which many habano aficionados, and those cutting their smoking teeth in the realm of the world’s finest cigars, have very little time at their disposal and can barely turn to a handful of places to puff on their habanos. That’s why the short-format vitola comes as the perfect solution: a shorter habano that yet doesn’t relinquish the plenitude of feelings only a gem like this can deliver.

H. Upmann, one of Habanos S.A.’s flagship brands, was created by Herman Upmann, a German banker whose fondness of Habanos* led him to settling down in Havana back in 1840.

The brand’s blend stems from leaves collected in the region of Vuelta Abajo* in Pinar del Rio*, Cuba*. These are habanos “totally hand-rolled with long filler” that have always been ranked high on the list of the most refined soft-to-mild-tasting habanos*.

The gold medals that decorate their boxes speak volumes of the superb quality and long history this brand has to offer. The brand has grabbed many of these awards in at least eleven international fairs and tradeshows in the course of the 19th century.

The H. Upmann Half Corona 25-unit box is now available in many countries around the world. The 5-unit case will be rolled out in 2012.
