Altadis USA Announces the H. Upmann The Banker Daytrader Cigar Series

Altadis USA is releasing a new, ongoing but small batch, cigar in the H. Upmann The Banker series with the name Daytrader. This cigar is inspired by the modern world of banking. It is made with an Ecuadorian wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. The cigar is made at Tabacalera de Garcia in the Dominican Republic and is created by the Gruppe de Maestros, the master blenders from Altadis. There will be three sizes, a robusto, toro and Gordo with the name whale. All come in boxes of 10 that look like a laptop.

“This introduction is part of our plan to expand The Banker line with small productions of specialty cigars from the renowned Grupo De Maestros,” said Jennifer True, senior marketing director of Altadis U.S.A. “While the world of finance may have changed over time, there’s something that has always remained consistent for H. Upmann, and that is the certainty that being true to innovation means being true to the brand’s DNA,” True said.

Hermann Upmann was a banker and merchant who founded the brand in 1844 after a trade mission to Cuba.
