I picked up one of these babies at Frankfurt train station on a recent trip to Germany and, having never tried an H. Upmann before, I was pleasantly surprised.
The construction seemed almost flawless with a dark, smooth wrapper and an inticing, spicy aroma.
It lit easily and held its ash well. The ash dropped off by itself when it was around 3.5cm long. The smoke itself had a lovely smell to it, rich and spicy.
I found this to be a very tasty smoke with sweet, fruity earthy notes and a hint of clementine. It lasted me nearly an hour, not including ten minutes I left it and it went out.
IÂ’ve read others complaining that these donÂ’t like staying alight but mine only went out when I left it. I really have no complaints with this cigar and wouldnÂ’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone who likes light to medium strength smokes. On my return journey I picked up another three to put in my humidor. Maybe theyÂ’ll get even better!
