H. Upmann disappointing

[Kenyth]

I had one the other night. Picked it out of a pass a couple weeks ago. Smoked it now due to this thread.

I agree it was nothing special but I would not go so far as saying it was terrible. It had a good but not wonderful prelight aroma. Good draw and firm ash. Flavor was a bit one dimensional and mild to medium in strength. If it was cheap I would buy some for everyday stuff and giving to friends on poker night. If asked for a rating number I would say 83.

I just tried another one of these. I recieved it from a friend. He loves them. It had about a 50 ring gauge, so it was a bit bigger than the last tubo I had, which was about 44. This one looked, felt, smelled and tasted much better than the other one. I wouldn't call it a great smoke or a real complex flavor, but it was nice. It's about how jaewing descibes his here.

Yeah, I was dissapointed tith the H. Upmanns. I had a Corona Majors and geez it was a hard draw, harsh, and not all that great. It kept going out too. Lasted near 2.5 hours in between me getting the shits and relighting it so many times....
