H. Upmann No. 2 Reserva Cosecha 2010

The H. Upmann No. 2 Reserva Cosecha 2010 is an ultra-premium, limited-edition cigar released by Habanos S.A. in 2014. As part of the prestigious Reserva line, this cigar represents the pinnacle of Cuban tobacco aging, craftsmanship, and tradition. Only 5,000 numbered boxes of 20 cigars were released globally, making it one of the most exclusive and collectible cigars in the H. Upmann portfolio.

Crafted entirely from tobaccos harvested in 2010 from the famed Vuelta Abajo region, each leaf—wrapper, binder, and filler was aged for a minimum of three years before rolling, allowing the blend to develop a remarkable depth of character, harmony, and smoothness.
