H. Upmann The Banker cigars continue the classic brand's tradition of excellence with an affordable, rich-tasting edition that won't break the bank. A well-balanced Nicaraguan-Dominican core is expertly rolled in an exquisite Ecuadorian Habano wrapper leaf
Great medium body cigar. Burns smooth and even when properly lit. Great aroma. This size is good for about a 50-minute smoke with flavors of cocoa and is smooth to the finish. Always a favorite in my humidor. I prefer the H. Upmann Currency, 5.5x48, but settled on the Annunity when they were on sale. Great cigar and highly recommended for the seasoned beginner and experienced smoker.
So, I got this in an H. Upmann sampler, and this was the last one I tried in the sampler. Up until this cigar, the sampler was a bit hit or miss, but this thing was a home run! It stunned me it tasted so good. It was very smooth, creamy, and pleasant. It was like smoking a mocha latte that was usually sweet and balanced with some peppery leather. It tasted so good that it still deserves 5 stars despite a few construction issues. The cigar usually burned very evenly but there were a couple of spots where the cigar went out and required a relight. However, that had no effect on the taste. I nubbed this thing to the mustache in 105 minutes. I will be hunting for a good deal on a box of these for the humidor.
Liked everything about this smoke!
Why have I missed this cigar? It is so good it s my new favorite. The wrapper is oily, burns even, and the taste and smell is fantastic. It s a big cigar, but not overwhelming. Absolutely love this one - give it a try!
Excellent Appearance with great consistency in draw, burn and taste. I mean this cigar really surprised me. This was my first H. Upmann I have ever tried and it blew me away. I will try the A.J Fernandez version but this will be hard to beat. This is one of my #1 cigars I will go to. In general, this cigar is all that!
Love this cigar and all the cigars int he H. Upmann Banker series
Excellent draw, burn, and combination of flavors. This is like the $15 bottle of wine that you keep going back to. The value of the Banker churchill for the money is absolutely there. Beyond what others have already noted on citrus, leather, butter, chocolate, and coffee undertones, I was very impressed with the smoothness of the flavor for the first 75% o the smoke.
I love that I can enjoy this cigar for 3-4 hours and savor it s fine taste and consistency.
If you enjoy a long smooth smoke this is it. I shared some of the box with friends and they were hooked. Excellent draw and smooth even burning. i fired one up on the second hole and finished it on 15.
I brought 4 boxes love them!
