An excellent and good value every day cigar. Well made with a good burn and mellow flavour, Not to be rushed though - a good 30 minutes needed to enjoy.

I love these little cigars!....there are better cigars out there but for a half corona that costs 8 quid, they are really very good!
It was the comments mentioning "creamy, smooth leather & hints of coffee and/or chocolate" that first made me prick up my ears and subsequently had this old dog wagging it's tail!
Lovely relaxing, trouble free smoke that's sure to last most a good 30-40 minutes depending on individual cadence. Do yourself a favour and pull the trigger on 2 or 3, chuck them in the humidor for a few weeks to settle and break one out at a suitable time of your choosing.

I bought one of these for a lunchtime smoke. It had been recommended to me by a friend who assured me I'd get through it in about 30-45 minutes. It took me just over 40 minutes to get down to the last inch, If I'd smoked a little more slowly, I think I'd have got nearly an hour out of it. I can honestly say that this really was creamy and went perfectly with an extra strong cappuccino. It got creamier in the 2nd third and then became a bit more sharp in the last third. In my opinion, they go great with a nice cup of coffee. I smoked it outside in a park and the ash held until it was about 1 1/2 inches. I'm definitely getting more of these.

perfect cigar for a short trip, just grab your morning coffee and enjoy this 25-35min lasting tastiness.

Unfortunately my cigar tunnelled but I believe this to be resultant of too intense of a heat upon lighting, with the core becoming hotter than the outsides (I used a triple jet flame) But my word, the flavours were to die for. A wonderful host of rich flavours, I don't need to repeat exactly what they were as this is clear from the other reviews. The bad burn was unfortunate but I believe it to have been my fault, it will not put me off buying plenty more.

H. Upmann Majestic Cigar - 1 Single
by Samuel
Very enjoyable. I smoked this while reading a book and it was a perfect compliment to such. Perfect draw, just a little resistance as you'd like and a great burn. The Majestic is very flavourful but isn't particularly complex, however you don't always want that, with a box of these you'd know what to expect. In the first third it was quite mild with a nutty, woody taste. In the second third it built upon these flavours and became slightly more rich with leathery notes appearing and a little sweetness; in the final third this rich leather and woodiness was even more pronounced with coffee flavours becoming noticeable. In the final couple of inches I did notice a little bitterness but I put this down to the cigar being young. Overall, a fantastic smoke for the price and is one I will definitely be returning to.
