Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.

H. Upmann is an oft-overlooked line in Altadis’ stable of famous cigar names. This six and 1/2 inch by 52 ring gauge torpedo comes packaged in an attractive cedar sleeve. With a medium flavor profile and quintessential Cameron spice, this Dominican-made is nice but not great. Still, with solid construction, I can definitely recommend it.

Verdict = Buy.
