H. UPMANN

H. Upmann is one of the oldest cigar brands in existence, dating back to the 1840s. It was started when Herman Upmann quit his job as a banker in the early 1840’s and went about opening up a branch office in Havana. Upmann quickly realised that he could begin a commercial endeavour in the industry and in 1844 he made the bold investment of a cigar factory and the H. Upmann brand was officially launched. 

Later on in 1922, both the Upmann bank and the cigar business went bankrupt and they had to sell up to J. Frankau & Co., a British firm who continued the production of the cigars up until 1935 at which point the brand was sold on again to the recently established Menendez y Garcia Co., the makers of the famous Montecristo cigar. The new owners continued the production of H. Upmann cigars up until the nationalisation of the tobacco industry after the Cuban revolution.

H. Upmann's blend is composed exclusively of filler and binder tobaccos grown in the Vuelta Abajo zone and all H. Upmann sizes are ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade.

Gold medals in no less than eleven international exhibitions during the 19th Century can be found on the brand's labelled boxes.

MAGNUM 46

This cabinet selection cigar tied in a silk ribboned bundle first saw the light of day in the mid 1980s. It revitalised the traditional image of the brand with its elegant light to medium taste in a girth that rewards the palate.

Tasting Notes

Very complex and creamy, a really good daytime smoke as it is not too strong but has lovely subtle woody flavours. A true pleasure to smoke.

----

90 / 100

"The draw is a bit firm, but still imparts toasty notes of walnut and vanilla wrapped around a solid core of dried fruit and wood. It burns evenly at a slow, cool rate..."

After enjoying the other magnum sizes I gave this a go. Well, I know it is just bad luck but this was completely plugged and unsmokeable. I tried to revive but ended up removing a lot of the filler with perfect draw and still no smoke getting through. I am currently smoking the Lcdh royal robusto which is amazing from the first light. These things happen!!!!!!

This cigar is very nice, can take a while to get going due to its length. But overall it is a nice slow burn cigar.

A very nice cigar, it changes flavours with the smoking time. Creamy, chocolate taste at first, it gets spicier halfway through the burn. Quite smooth at first. Even burn, beautiful flavours.

Reviewed by Steve Smith Introduction: This head spinning tasty stick arrived via stealth bomber when I made a wish from across the Ohio river. Thank you DonJefe. Anyone want to buy some really nice domestics cheap? This is ridiculous I have been smoking cigars for 20 years and feel like an idiot not going dark earlier. Pre-Light Ruminations: Smelled nice a lot like the permanent resonant smell from my mustache. No matter what I do always that cigar smell in the short hairs. This kind of flavors any pre light thoughts. Looks like a rough triple cap. Nice firm cigar - but without exception in my limited experience Cubans seem firmer than the domestics. Pre light draw was slightly tight but good. Initial Thoughts This stick started out raspy and settled in after about a ½ inch. For its ring size it was not as strong as I expected medium to full with a little sharp nose. Kept my interest, got some twang, not ethereal, but good at this price point. Mid Burn Experience Settled in to that nice leather, coffee zone got a little 3D as the buzz set in. Burn was great. Stopped at a Walgreen's for more nicorette and left the stick on the mirror. This yappy little dog in the car next door shut up and just stared at the smoke. Was still staring when I came back out. I felt the same way. Got that nice subtle nutty flavor and more so a what the hell is that flavor kind of feeling tying to put to words the sensation. Last Third Got a bit stronger towards the end. Spice came forward. Not ultra smooth but good. Nutty spice some tongue twang and a real good buzz. Smoked it to the nub. Conclusion Nice smoke a little different than the ones I've had so far. Liked it, seems like a decent value and deserving of some more attention. More on the way. I don't think we needed to know about the moustache effect on the aroma of cigars. A little to innocuous but some good comments in between the by play. Overall Rating: 6/10 Reviewed by: Joe Mazloom After an interesting (?) start that almost switched me off, this review settles down to a really nice straightforward set of easy to understand descriptives completely different from the previous two. Good work. Score: 8/10 Reviewed by: Richard Whitwell An good review. This would be my second place choice. The author organized the review well; however, he did not pay attention to the details in this cigar. He could have left out the part where he went into a store and left the cigar burning in the car. Score: 7/10 Reviewed by: Heike Billy OVERALL SCORE: 21/30
