H. Upmann Coronas Junior

The H. Upmann Coronas Junior is a compact, accessible Cuban cigar that makes an excellent introduction to the H. Upmann range — a Franciscano vitola measuring 120mm with a 40 ring gauge that delivers a mild to medium-bodied smoke of genuine character across approximately 40 minutes. Cedar, light spice and a clean nutty finish in a manageable size — ideal for those new to Cuban cigars or anyone looking for a shorter, lighter smoke of consistent quality.

About H. Upmann Cigars

Founded in Havana in 1844 by German banker Hermann Dietrich Upmann, H. Upmann is one of Cuba's oldest and most distinguished cigar houses. Upmann arrived in Cuba to expand his family's banking interests but became captivated by the tobacco industry, purchasing a factory and producing cigars under his own name. The brand is credited with introducing the cedar cigar box — a practice that became the global standard — and with creating some of the most refined blends in the Habanos portfolio. Today H. Upmann is revered for elegance and consistency across formats from the compact Half Corona to the stately Sir Winston.
