jeromeroselli Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 1) What does the H. in H. Upmann stand for? 2) What is the meaning of life?
mkz Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 1. From Wikipedia about H. Upmann: "This marque traces its history back to 1844 and several rival versions of the story of its origin exist. It is known for sure that two brothers, August and Hermann Upmann founded the brand in that year. An alternate claim is that their surname was, in fact, Hupmann, but the "H" was dropped from the name of the brand because "H. Upmann" was more aesthetically appealing than "H. Hupmann". Both claims are likely because both Hupmann and Upmann are German surnames. Alternately, there is a claim that the "H" in H. Upmann stands for either "Hermann" or the Spanish word Hermanos, meaning "brothers," since it was Hermann and August who founded the brand." 2. Cigars.
