H. Upmann Majestic Cigar - 1 Single
by Clare
A very well constructed cigar. Draw was perfect, not to tight and not to loose. It was quite creamy wich is my favorite, it also had hints of wood and was nutty. I would have expected a better burn but its not every day you find a cuban long filler hand rolled cigar for this amazing price. Exelent value and i would recomend this as a first cigar.

This is the most fantastic smoke. So smooth and creamy all i had in my mouth was just cream and vanilla and chocolate. Was incredible. Do yourselves a favour and buy a few of these. Take some time and enjoy ..what a smoke!
Also given to a friend as a wedding gift and he isnt a cigar smoker and absolutely loved it. We sat and enjoyed for a good hour

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.
I’ve read others complaining that these don’t like staying alight but mine only went out when I left it. I really have no complaints with this cigar and wouldn’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 they’ll get even better!

This is an absolutely brilliant cigar

Disappointed to say that I didn't enjoy smoking this cigar one bit. Highly inconsistent and not enjoyable. Lasted half an hour, started off very mild and I abandoned it around the two thirds mark as it had become horribly harsh. I really wanted to like it but couldn't. Burned evenly with an easy draw and a dark grey ash.

Not a lot in the pre light fragrance. Upon lighting the initial draw was very light and reminded me of a hamlet. Slight sweetness, a bit of a light leathery taste. As the first third continued these tastes got stronger and the sweetness levels reduced. By the end of the first third the sweetness was gone and the taste was slightly bitter. The burn was good and even for the first third.
No surprises in the second third: the taste of leathery tobacco continue. The burn remains even and for the size of the cigar the ash hold together well. One thing that I noticed was that there is not a lot of smoke output from this small cigar.
Into the final third and this cigar has quite a strong leathery taste, the bitter notes are a bit more prevalent. I decided to end this in the final third, I think I could have gotten another 5-10 minutes from it had I persevered, but there wasn't enough taste to make me want to burn my fingers.
Overall this was an OK smoke, the cigar smoking time was exactly 25 minutes for me. It is a bit bland on the flavours, a mild cigar that did get a bit bi
