Oh my word what a fantastic cigar. It was so smooth and creamy and really mild. It did burn quite quickly which was a bit sad as I was enjoying it so much and did get a bit warm, but I smoked it until there was nothing left to hold onto. The ash looked wonderful. I really recommend this cigar - an exceptionally good smoke.

H. Upmann Half Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Richard
Got a couple of these recently for a holiday next month - since they arrived I have been eager to try one after all the positive reviews, and as the wife wasn't feeling too well and decided to go bed early, I did the loving husband thing and took the opportunity to slip away to my man-cave and try one out (or, the official line, to let her get a few hours uninterrupted sleep before I came to bed...)
Wow! What a superb little cigar. The flavour was right there from the start (thankfully, on such a small stick) and I found it evolved constantly throughout the half hour or so it lasted me (I wasn't paying particularly close attention to the clock...)
Burn was perfect, with no touch-ups needed. Draw was a little tight, but that wasn't a terrible thing on a little one like this.
The cigar itself was absolutely delicious. Grass, caramel, dark chocolate, honey and coffee appeared at various points (there were a few draws that reminded me particularly of a caramel latte) Throughout the entire cigar there was also plenty of cream and nuts (at one point, it was specifically walnut).

H. Upmann Half Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Joshua
Very good little stick. Smoked well and fairly evenly. The flavour was fairly creamy and moderately intense for a light to medium bodied cigar. The flavour didn't drop and it was easily smokable to the butt of the cigar. Would definitely smoke again, as it is a very flavoursome little stick. Got about a half hour smoke which was impressive for the size.

The Upmann half corona is a all time favourite of mine, full of great flavours and is often paired with a coffee which complements one another beautifully. I have always recommended these cigars not just on their guaranteed creamy flavours but also as a good short time smoke(around 20min) I often add these on my order as my humidor wouldn't be complete without them.

I am a cigar novice and made a trip to the Turmeaus store today in Mayfair to purchase this delightful cigar after reading so many excellent reviews (in addition to my regular go to Montecristo Puritos and a Montecristo No. 5). I have to concur, this is a truly wonderful little cigar and I thoroughly enjoyed my stroll through Hyde Park puffing away on this little beauty. It was a lovely smooth draw and burnt really well and brought to mind coffee and nuts. I felt thoroughly relaxed and like another reviewer, smoked it right down to my fingers. I was so sad when it was gone. It is a real pleasure to visit the Turmeaus store which is in a delightful location and I was expertly served by David.
