H. Upmann Half Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Jordan
I found the H. Upmann Half Corona Cigar an absolute delight. It's deminutive size led me to believe it's flavour would be less than it's H.Upmann peers (a brand that is quickly becoming my favourite). It smoked well, and tasted fantastic, all the way down to the end. I think the other reviews capture it's flavour well. Definately a recommended smoke.

Really enjoyed this milld petit robusto sized cigar. The flavour is light and smooth with notes of coffee and cream. This cigar is excellent value for money and its great as a mid week smoke. My first taste of the Chinchalero brand, I was impressed with the built quality and the cigar burnt down consistently without having to be re lit. Have already bought a few more of these as a regular 'everyday' smoke. A light, easy smoke.

A pleasant cigar, the honey infusion adds a sweet taste on the lips and the aroma is pleasant. Pricing was about right at £5, I would not have paid more for it. The construction was good and the burn was even and consistent. A nice smoke to be enjoyed with an afternoon coffee. Petit Corona sized.

I purchased this cigar in the 'medium flavoured cuban sampler'. I must say I was a little disappointed. Burn and construction were very good - however I found the cigar to be lacking in smoke aroma and the taste wasn't special in my opinion. I know these are a very popular brand but I find the H.Upmann an Hoyo de Monterrey equivalents superior to these.

A very pleasant smoke indeed, the aroma reminded me of my grandfathers pipe smoke- sweet and aromatic. The smoke is light and smooth with a sweet mouth feel. The construction is rustic and can leave shreds on the lip but this is to be expected with such a traditional cigar. Looks and feels like a cigar from an old western movie! Very pleasant- cant wait for another one so a good job that they're sold in packs of 5! A good short smoke.

Really enjoyed this smoke, I bought it on the recommendation of a member of staff and it really is a very good quality cigar. Smooth and creamy flavours, the burn was consistent and balanced and the ash held on firmly. Slightly smaller than the usual robusto, I bought this from the Chester shop, the only dissapointing element is that its £4 cheaper online so one always has to ask for the cheaper price if at the shop. At the web price its certainlly a real bargain.
