H. Upmann Half Corona Cigar - 1 Single

Excellent draw but the burn was uneven although this may have been my fault when lighting it due to my eagerness to taste it. Good ash until I removed the wrapper to smoke it to the nub. The initial few draws were quite harsh and unpleasant however it quickly mellowed into a delicious smooth smoke with flavours of spice, leather and cocoa.
Overall a great little cigar which will definitely become a permanent addition to my humidor. Highly recommended!

It is better to buy one decent cigar than five cheap, A cheap cigar you don't enjoy is a total waste of money, A dearer cigar you enjoy is a memorable experience, The Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure No.1 ticks all the boxes fabulous build quality, excellent draw, flavour from first lighting, medium strength throughout, great aroma, tastes of wood, fruit and spice this cigar has it all, personally I prefer this to the Epi No.2 which is also an excellent cigar.

Will be buying again, im new to cigar smoking so thought this may be a good starting point. They are well constructed and low maintaince when lit. The ash holds for 2inches+. The flavours start out mild and creamywith a hint of sweetness. Then develops into a more complex smoke full of light leathery notes and sweet cedar. The final third improves on this and a sweet salty caramel flavour coats the inside of your mouth. I smoked it right down to the last inch and was very reluctant to stubb it when it started burning my lips

Can't be faulted on flavour, this was delicious and smoked right down to the nub. However the burn was uneven and this doesn't feel like great value given it's size.
