H Upmann Cristal #43

Anybody ever smoke any of these? I bought a box way back before I knew better and I just can't get past the first 1/3 or so. I tried to smoke 2 of them, gave one away and sacrificed a forth one to the dissection gods. You could use the pulverized tobacco in this cigar to make a Marlboro.

Does anybody like these things?

I love all the H Upmanns. The secret to the cigar is to take them out of the tube and let them sit in the humidor over night. Then take it the morning that you know you are going to smoke them. If you smoke them right after you pull them out, then it is really harsh, or they have been for me when i smoke them. Other than that, i love them.

Ding-Ding-Ding -- we have a winner!!!

Watch your mailbox.

BTW: I had taken them out of the tubes a while back. The way they were packed took up way too much room. Hope you enjoy them.
