One of the newest releases from among the oldest names in cigars, the Punch Uppercut cigars definitely pack a wallop.
This has a distinct taste from what you might expect from other premium cigars, thanks to its use of the rare Ometepe long fillers. This Nicaraguan leaf is harder to grow and manage effectively because of the humidity issues associated with growing tobacco on this volcano-made patch of land, but as folks have gotten more skilled at growing it, it's starting to show up in quality cigars like this one.
The Ometepe blends with the Dominican, Honduran, and its other Nicaraguan long fillers for a flavor that is virtually impossible to find elsewhere. The first third tastes mostly of tobacco, but it gets mellow in the middle before surging to a powerful finish that makes it a shame when it finally gets too small to continue smoking.
Also, not to be superficial, but the Punch Uppercut cigars look awesome. I've never seen a bad wrapper, and the labels have the classic-looking logo and an image of the Ometepe region where its signature leaf is grown. It's not just a great cigar to smoke, it's one of the best to carry if you also use a cigar as an accessory. When you whip this out at a business dinner, it looks the part of a cigar that means business, even if you usually prefer something more mild and have to nurse it for longer than usual. It burns impressively and holds the ash well, making it one of the best Punch cigars to keep in the humidor.
