Earthy · Fruity · Herbal · Sweet

The Vintage Cameroon showcases a wrapper Altadis aged for years before rolling: a high-grade Cameroon leaf with real character. This Robusto, at 5.5 inches by a 42 ring gauge, is a slender, elegant format made in the Dominican Republic.

What it tastes like

Under the oily Cameroon wrapper sits a Nicaraguan binder and a multi-country filler of Dominican, Nicaraguan, and Peruvian tobaccos. The blend is woody and oily with light leather and citrus, and it gives off sweet, floral, and fruity notes laced with subtle sweet spice. It lands at a comfortable medium body — flavorful and nuanced without being heavy.

Who it's for

A great everyday non-Cuban for smokers who enjoy the distinctive twang of Cameroon wrapper and a medium strength. The slim ring gauge makes it refined and approachable. Pair it with coffee or an aged rum.

This is the Dominican, Altadis-made H. Upmann, not the Havana line. To taste the Cuban house style, try the Connoisseur No.1. Cameroon is its own thing — read Cuban vs Nicaraguan cigars for how origins shape flavor. Log it and rate it in the Casa DNC app.
