Herman Upmann was a banker from Germany who so loved Cuban cigars that he moved to Havana in 1844 and set up as both banker and cigar maker. His bank closed in the early 1920's but his cigars live on as a fine example of an elegant,light to medium flavoured Habano. 

H. Upmann's blend is composed exclusively of filler and binder tobaccos grown in the Vuelta Abajo zone. 

Gold medals in no less than eleven international exhibitions during the 19th Century can be found on the brand's labelled boxes. 

Tasting Notes

This cigar is creamy with hints of coffee. Small attractive Havana, good draw with complex flavours for such a small cigar. An excellent short smoking break cigar. 

---- 

89 / 100

"...Small and stubby with a lopsided cap, this cigar begins floral and bready before picking up a salty earthiness. The finish leaves a bit of grit on the palate..."

My favourite cigar. Timeless flavours, reliable and good for all situations. Onto my third box at this point. JFK's favourite cigar.

Bit more of a nicotine hit than I was expecting Some quite diverse reviews of these on here. Ive had a couple from my first tin of these now and I must say, compared to the lovely Connoisseur No. 1s Ive had and enjoyed, these are quite a bit stronger. (I generally go for a mild smoke so, given these are rated mild to medium, I ought not to have been surprised.) I thought these would make a good accompaniment at this time of year (December) to my morning moccaccino. They do, but leave me a little too woozy for my liking. Just my preference, of course. Shall certainly persist through the rest of the tin, but, for me, not for a working day morning.

Mild, smooth & subtle, a truly outstanding 25 minute smoke. Accompanied by freshly ground Arabica beans coffee. As a seasoned cigar smoker, I was impressed by the flavours of light meadow hay, and hints of salty pepper of this small Corona One of my best buys.

First up, I cannot commend the staff at Cgars highly enough, orders have always been delivered promptly and arrive in perfect condition. This box was delivered by hand! What a wonderful smoke the Upmann Half Corona is! Mild but complex enough to keep you entertained, beautiful construction, quality is always spot on. They can be smoked all the way down to the shortest stub without becoming bitter. Consistent flavour all the way through the stick. Perfect for a summer afternoon before dinner.
