The H. Upmann Regalias stands as one of the brand's enduring classics, with roots stretching back to before 1960. This petit corona has undergone significant transformation throughout its history, evolving from a machine-made format to its current handmade production, representing the brand's commitment to quality craftsmanship in the modern era.
History and Evolution
Originally released prior to 1960, the Regalias was produced as a machine-made cigar until approximately 2002. This transition to handmade construction marked a significant upgrade in quality and attention to detail. The cigar remains in current regular production, demonstrating its lasting appeal among aficionados.
In 2020, H. Upmann introduced a distinctive tin presentation for the Regalias, placing it within the prestigious Línea Retro collection. This special packaging format shares company with other notable releases including the Romeo y Julieta Club Kings, Partagás Capitols, Hoyo de Monterrey Souvenir de Luxe, and Punch Triunfos.
