Enjoyed it with a latte on my 22nd birthday. Lasted me 41 minutes and was thoroughly enjoyable throughout. In 5 years of cigar smoking,Id somehow never tried one. And more fool me. If you can find them cheaper, you would be doing yourself a favour in picking some up.

Tastes a bit strange, alot worse than a tobacco cigarette but great for someone trying to quit smoking.

The H Upmann half corona is my favourite cigar, so I was excited to try the Majestic. Unfortunately it was very disappointing. Echoing other recent reviews, the draw is incredibly tight. A previous review mentioned like blowing balloons for a birthday party, that’s not an exaggeration. I ended up leaving half the cigar and trying another day.
Regarding taste, there wasn’t any particular notes until the final 20%, which was a pleasant nutty taste.
The burn time is around 60min, but this is a by product of how tightly rolled the cigar is.
I really think there is a quality control/production issue on this line. Old reviews praise it.

Absolute joy... easy and simple, nice for an after-work drink, and has nice notes of coffee and spice

Well this has sat in my humidor for over 3 months. The sun is out and I thought why not enjoy a Cuban today.
Well worth the wait, I like to let the Cubans sit a little longer in my humidor, just personal preference.
Very nice flavours, nothing harsh, good amount of smoke. Even burn until just before the band so a little touch up sorted that.
I like to enjoy a Cuban every now and again and I would smoke cigars in and around the £10 range once or twice through the week.
You really can notice the difference, dont get me wrong some of those cheaper cigars are better than other Cubans i have had. But I do like a nice H upmann once in a while. If you dont treat yourself who will.
Definitely worth having a few in your humidor.

H. Upmann No. 2 Cigar - 1 Single

I recently revisited this cigar only because on a recent trip to Italy I managed to get my hands on two boxes. These cigars have been quite hard to find in recent times, probably due to being No. 1 on CA’s Top 25 list 2022.
After six weeks rest I smoked one of the cigars Ive just bought box date FEB 2022 against some I’ve been aging for a while box date MAR 2013 (I only have a handful left) unsurprisingly there quite different experiences, however the similarities are strong, up to a point!
Both cigars started very well with a sweet almost meaty flavour, strangely the aged cigar had a much more oily feel and appearance to it, with the youthful one a dry appearance in comparison.
As with most Cuban cigars, there’s a hint of herbaceous grassiness and mild spice, turning to woodiness in the second third, these are by no means a strong cigar, but there are enough transitions to keep you interested. Both cigars produced voluminous smoke with a very slight blue hue. The veteran cigar did burn better, the youngster did require the odd correction to keep an even burn.
