H. Upmann Majestic Cigar - 1 Single
by Simon
After going through the ordeal of being retired on health grounds I haven decided to spend my time enjoying cigars, while my health alliows me. Both my late grandfather’s smoked pipes and used to give me the occasional King Edward cigar. I always found them bitter and put me off. On my 21st Birthday I was given a box of Havana’s that I remember enjoying at the time. Thanks to Callum’s (Chester’ shop) YouTube recommendation saying the H Upmann Majestic is a “anytime cigar” I ordered 3 to try. No bitterness at all and easy to smoke right down to the final half inch. A have a new hobby!!

Not terrible but the cherry is only present pre-light and for the money you can get much higher quality cigars, I found the smoke quite harsh but strangely bland. I certainly wont be purchasing anymore.

I reckon that as far as this vitola is concerned this stick is a steal.
For this smoker Joya will remain a template of Nicaraguan taste profile and this is simlarly milky, light and enjoyable; Davidoffs delicious but overpriced offering be damned.
Draw is quite loose and it might not be as well packed as some slightly pricier cigars but burn was even in this case, smoke flavoursome, though given a tad uneven filling I wouldnt be surprised if some required more work than others.
Ash dropped naturally an inch in and never faltered.
Its a big, nice, mellow cigar without much depth, sure, but really pleasant and worth the price.

Great medium cigar with plenty to taste. Burnt extremely evenly and never went out. Maybe not an after dinner smoke as its not spicy but more of a lunchtime smoke sitting on a veranda with a glass of good shiraz.

Perfect with a good coffee in the garden, A good almost even burn but I think thats more to do with myself lighting, well wrapped andbas others have said you can get 2cm or so of ash before there are signs of it wanting to drop off, personally I got a slightly spice infused taste from the draw but mixed with coffee this became very toffee flavoured so I guess depending on your pairing this will differ, overall for someone new then yes it may be a little strong but worth a try
