A superb cigar that any cigar connoisseur ought to try. Released as a Limited Edition in 2005, due to its huge success, Habanos decided to make it a standard production in 2008, to the delight of its many aficionados.
Deep, rich, generous and with a strength greater than it might seem at first. One of the ten best Habanos of the size range.
The H.Upmann Magnum 54 is a classy medium bodied Petit Robusto, of 54 ring gauge, 4.7” (120 mm) long and comes in aluminum tubes in a box of 15 cigars.
These mild to medium bodied cigars have a very smooth and subtle flavor that has been its hallmark since its introduction in 1844. A great favorite among aficionados, the history of this brand began around 1840, when Herman Upmann, banker and almost fanatical cigar enthusiast, offered to open a branch of his family-owned bank in Havana Cuba.
This is the first time that the H. Upmann marca has been used for a Gran Reserva release, which is considered to be among Habanos S.A.’s top cigars produced. All of the tobacco has been aged for a minimum of five years, before rolling the cigars, and only released when there is enough tobacco to produce such a release as opposed to on a fixed schedule.
The flavors are very recognizable as H.Upmann, but the conic shape of this cigar gives a smoke that is unique in this brand. Very clean tastes (no harshness) and medium body give for a perfectly round smoke. A cigar that will become even more popular with time.
