Sunrise will be the third regular-production H. Upmann brand that Fernandez makes for Tabacalera USA, following the H. Upmann Nicaragua by AJ Fernandez, which debuted in 2017 and the H. Upmann Nicaragua by AJ Fernandez Heritage in 2021. With its Ecuador Connecticut-seed wrapper and Nicaraguan blend, Sunrise is the mildest of the three, but isn’t billed as a mild cigar. According to Nodal, it’s medium in body and is not a typical Connecticut cigar. All the tobaccos are grown, fermented and aged by Fernandez.
